John's signature only speaks the truth.

Dammit!  Didn't even realize that one! 

Can't wait for the HD Collection.  Just saying...

[PaleRobbie]

Double post!

New episode is live.  Tell us what you think!

[Dade]

Sweeeeeet!

I'm home sick from work and wanted some podcast action, so i listened to the latest Destructoid show, then decided to relisten to The Dark Souls" episode, then listening to the SWTOR part I decide to check the forums here, boom new release.

Thanks gents (and Kim!)

[Alhizzy]

Just listened to episode 35 today, it was hilarious!

I kinda want to go back and listen to it again and count how many times the term "Dark Souls" was said, kind of like that one South Park episode that kept a running count of how many times the word "s**t" was said.

[Marshmallow]

I missed the boat on this but I just listened to the Xenoblade podcast and definitely think you all need to do a Shadow Hearts podcast. Since I personally could talk about that game for hours I'd love to hear others do it.

I'm back from the depth of hell, also known as Dark Souls.  I'm currently near the end of Anon Londo and my god it's insane.  I love the area, the mountains, the building structures and the enemies.  I love Demon's Souls but Dark Souls nailed it, the level design is simply THE best i've ever played in any game.  There are a few hiccups in the framerate....freaking Blightown.  That place scared the hell out of me.  It reminded me a bit of Valley of Defilement from Demon's Souls.  I believe i'm going to play my New Game+ as soon as i'm finished.  I believe I'll wait on the GotY version of Skyrim, Dark Souls has simply spoiled me.
    Anyways, i've listened to all of the podcast's up to this point and I loved the Metal Gear Solid shoutout,lol!  I actually was going to wait to finish Dark Souls before I listened to the podcasts but I knew you guys are good for not spoiling the game and you did a great job at it.  So, where is everyone at in Dark Souls?  I know that's for the Dark Souls thread.

[beLIEve?]

i've been listening to the show since the first episode. you guys riff well and ask the right questions. i like when you talk about the games you're playing. i like that you had kimberly and liz on the show for a female perspective i think that's important. i hope you get more game reps on the show for interviews there was a weekend confirmed not too long ago that had a developer for a shooter mmo. while that's not really my bag i liked hearing the process of game design. awhile back, i can't remember the episode. you talked about what you'd like to see in an rpg in terms of setting and whatnot. i love those conversations, i know it's mostly opinion and can be a can of worms for show format. in my head i always like to imagine if i had the resource and ability to make my own game. what would it look, sound and play like? i think for that reason i liked the female character episode. i'm not super familiar with the names of character tropes so that was nice little bit of enlightenment. the chrono cross episode needs to happen. i know i've seen the guy's post on the boards but perhaps you could bring the "to the moon" folks on? keep up the good work.

[Taelus]

We're hoping for the To the Moon folks. And if you like interviews, you're going to like the next episode :)

[PaleRobbie]

Hope everyone had an awesome Thanksgiving. 

Our Skyrim podcast just went up.  Enjoy!

[Fei]

I loved the show, and the interview was my favorite so far.  Those guys articulated game development very well.  The ongoing Dark Souls gag is hilarious too, and when Caesar said he was playing it himself, I about died.

I wanna thank John for the tip about unchecking the XBOX360 box in Skyrim, too.  Dark Souls still eats Skyrim's face, though.

The ongoing Dark Souls gag is hilarious too, and when Caesar said he was playing it himself, I about died.

HEE HEE HEE. The gag is funny, but not when it gets to disrespectful levels.

Thanks for the kind words-- I'm really glad you liked the interview. These guys deserve attention. If you want to talk about a group of creators with passion, you have it right there.

HEE HEE HEE. The gag is funny,

I am going to come to you house and murder you.  Just an FYI.

[Ivalice Alliance]

I'm really interested in Cognition :)

As always, another great podcast, I hope the interviews continue to grow as they are always good to listen to.

[Emonzaemon]

Alright, I'm finally on the forum.

I've been enjoying your Podcast, which has fully taken the spot of the long dead 1up Rpg podcast.  Thanks Rob!

You know what is fun Co-Op RPGs, since I play a lot of couch co-op with my friend, we are always hoping for more Couch Co-op RPG's.

We have played every co-op Tales game from both Symphonias to Vesperia and I look forward to Xillia and Graces F , but aside from Eternal Sonada(that ending was so...soul crushingly stupid), Borderlands and  what else is there, what God must I pray to, or game system should I send to the alter, to get more couch co-op RPGs?

Now, I am off to download the skyrim podcast and beat alpha protocol.
