RPGFan Podcast (Random Encounter) Thread

One: A podcast about why FFX-2 is awesome because Dress Spheres are silly, but still awesome.

I support this.

OH YEAH and what Reversable Cover was chosen for the Xenoblade Box?  I pre-ordered it, so now I can't wait to find out.

I think it was this one.

We've got a HUGE show coming up this week.  Lots of Mass Effect talk and another developer interview.  Stay tuned!

Oh, and the email address is:

Many thanks!

The Atlus USA guys seemed pretty darn cool.  I have to admit, when you introduced Scott as the QA lead for Game of Thrones, I was really excited that we might get some insight as to what kinds of functions go into the QA for video games.  That's something I'm really interested since I'm a QA lead myself, but that didn't pan out unfortunately (other than the horror when John mentioned regression testing to Scott).

Anyhoo, love the podcasts, keep up the amazing work!

the new podcast was sweet. even though i haven't played any of the mass effect games, i listened to the spoilers. i figure by the time i get a xbox 360 to play all three i'll have forgotten.

i really liked the interview with the atlus guy's. i'm super curious about the game of thrones rpg is there a thread somewhere else on the boards? i couldn't find one and i was afraid to post a new one since the first topic i opened in the wrong place. what i'd like to kick around is, earlier today i was talking to a friend about the new game of thrones game. he mentioned cyanide's previous attempt at a game of thrones game. basically he said it came out buggy and whatnot and he had little optimism for the new one. i was ignorant of the first one. i love atlus but how much are they in the mix as a publisher? does the developer trump the publisher or the other way around for quality sake?

p.s. while normally i love when rob & stephen annoy john i'm glad the hammer came down on the meme talk. the machoman thing got really annoying fast.

Good episode. Can't say I'm terribly invested in the Mass effect debacle (never been a fan), but Jon constantly witholding Diablo III from Rob was worth it. xD

Think you guys'll talk about Graces F in the next episode?

[Taelus]

I certainly hope to. :D

[PaleRobbie]

Episode 43 is live!  Lots of Xenoblade and Tales of Graces F to talk about!!

[Lard]

I think the criticisms made of Xenoblade are legit.

Nothing is game breaking but every game has a few nitpicks.

[pg.shadowrunner]

Gotta say, I really do need to give Xenoblade another shot. With limited access to a Wii, though, I ended up starting Xenogears for the first time, to have a little more frame of reference for Takahashi's previous work. So far I'm liking it, although apects of it really haven't aged well.

Went back and relistened to the Xenoblade podcast again now that I'm playing it.

Interesting to listen to it now that I'm playing it.

Still waiting for the Shadow Hearts podcast.

i've been waiting for it to drop in the news section. is there a reason it didn't get a link on the front page?

I tend to post updates on weekdays.  That being said, voila!

[PaleRobbie]

It's actually John's kind way of telling me that he doesn't like the podcast and wishes we never started it. 

Either that or he was busy.
