Rob needs to play Sakura Taisen asap.
P4 dating sim/battle aspects multiplied by 10.

Glad you guys are enjoying the podcast anyway. I don't think I can listen to it as I really don't like the sound of my own voice. :P

I'm with ya there dude, I can't even stand it when I hear myself echo in a skype call.

At least we can't be accused of being egotistical!

Going to be recording another episode this weekend with another developer interview! 

Note: This will NOT be our long Dark Souls conversation.  Many of us are playing the game now, but we want to wait until we're a bit further before we have a full discussion. 

[Alhizzy]

Cool, looking forward to it Rob.  I've already heard tales of people disappearing from the face of the earth because of Dark Souls.

Wasn't too keen on that last podcast as there were so many interruptions going on and people talking over each other.  Still seems like Xenoblade is a cool game though, but I'm not sold enough from trailers and footage to buy a Wii and import a copy - thank goodness :-)

[PaleRobbie]

It's hard because we're using Skype, so there's no reciprocity associated with talking face to face.  We try not to talk over each other, but it does happen from time to time.  Or, ya know, when John's wrong about something. 

[Alhizzy]

John's been wrong about some things?  Whaaaa???

I use skype for playing final fantasy xi, so I know what you mean by the reciprocity.  That last episode it just seemed to stand out more than usual i guess... i think it's because I was really pullin for Greg to get in more lines with that awesome accent of his.  Oh... speaking of, have you ever heard a british person (and i know he's from scotland not england) say the word goddess?  It's frickin awesome!

[Starmongoose]

Haha, sorry about that Alhizzy! My internet actually cut out twice during that, which was very frustrating, so I wasn't actually even there for about 10 minutes of that podcast.

I also can't seem to time a good place to interject with a comment, as soon as someone is done speaking, another starts. I sat there wondering "Are you people psychic?! How do you do that?" :P

I didn't want to interrupt to much, but sometimes it was just unavoidable.

I wonder what's so amusing about a British person saying goddess? I know my boyfriend gets a real kick out of me saying "murder". He's Irish, so he finds our prononciation amusing, as Scottish people roll their r's a lot.

I enjoyed the podcast as always. I haven't really been on the boards as much since I'm playing the living hell out of Shadow of the Colossus and Dark Souls. I did manage to platinum ICO with ease. Sigh....I have Dark Souls, Red Dead Redemption (GotY) and Arkham City to play. I may have to cancel my preorder on Skyrim because the GotY will be out eventually and I would rather have all the DLC on one disc and the updated guide to go along with. Plus, Dark Souls will keep me busy with the rest of 2011 and the entirety of 2012. So, I'll be looking forward to the Dark Souls podcast but I probably won't be on the boards much after this for awhile.

John's been wrong about some things?  Whaaaa???

I thought the exact same thing.

*cough* Dungeon Siege 3 *cough*

Double Post!

Check out our new episode featuring an in-depth discussion of Dark Souls and The Old Republic beta!

[A.I.]

Hmm just finished listening to the latest episode


dark souls lovefest aside ( :p ) ... quite mmo heavy this time around ... I think it was a good idea to let a non-mmo player comment about his beta experiences with swtor since you can also get an impression of how bioware is going to fare with newcomers.

Overall a good episode ... looking forward to the next episode ..

Will there be an episode before skyrim or would you rather rest a little bit after dark souls?

[Taelus]

Thanks for your comments! I agree, it was good to have a non-MMO player there.

And holy crap, Skyrim already.

[John]

Hm, we record every two weeks so we'd be butting up right against release day; I think maybe we'll hit Lord of the Rings: War in the North and maybe a topical podcast before Skyrim.
