TD Gaming Podcast 109: One Time At Plastic Band Camp…

This weeks gaming podcast includes a bit about a popular gaming podcast: Link. We also touch on Mercs, in our gaming flashback and tackle a bunch of news articles:

This week we’re answering a few listener questions, tackling the question about what you drink when pulling an all-nighter game-a-thon and asking a few new questions such as, do you like horror films and/or horror games?

We also review Pudge, for the iphone/ipod touch.

  1. “Lakeview Terrace” was the movie with Sam Jackson as the crazy cop neighbor. Decent flick, I enjoyed it!

    I personally love movies that scare the ever-living piss outta me! It’s rare that a movie will make me jump at shadows, but when they do, I totally love the adreneline high. “The Strangers” (http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/the_strangers/) was the last movie to freak me out. I was glad when the wife decided to come downstairs and watch it with me half-way through, lol.

    “Blowing on the cart” – I’m sure that refers to the old trick with the NES when a game wouldn’t work. You pull it out, blow on the cart and in the NES slot and try again!

Episode 262: But Not a Dollar ShortEpisode 262: But Not a Dollar Short

Episode 262 may be a week late, but it’s definitely chock full ‘o podcast goodness, as the full crew rambles on and off subject about this and that. This week’s Gaming Flashback is the old coin-op arcade game Star Castle while begat Yars’ Revenge, with a twist ending to the classic game’s tale.

This week’s news items include:

  • EA deals with Rock Band iOS debacle
  • Microsoft “banned” in Germany

All that, plus Reader Feedback and the Question of the Week, “What Kickstarter project have you backed or are most interested in buying?”

Episode 257: The Golden BoysEpisode 257: The Golden Boys

This week’s episode has a lot of … personality. That is, a lot of mockery, cursing, sniping, and general chaos – making it one of the best podcasts ever. Jordan Lund wasn’t available due to commitments at work, so Dan Quick once again filled in, and as expected, got along with Paul S. Nowak famously, as they tagteamed Jonah Falcon. In the meantime, the Gaming Flashback this week was Civilization II.

This week’s news also made Paul explode. Twice:

  • Congressmen want warning labels on all games
  • Exec: Console version of Diablo III will be “full Blizzard experience”
  • Grand Theft Auto V details allegedly leaked
  • EVE Online FanFest Panel accused of “tasteless” behavior
  • Rumor: Microsoft to release ‘Xbox Lite’ before next-gen

The winners of The Darkness II contest were also announced. All this in an episode bursting full of good, old-fashioned bitchiness.

The news includes:

  • Hollow Knight: Silksong causes server chaos on Xbox, Steam, and Nintendo as platforms grind to a halt
  • 42,000 Pokémon TCG Phantasmal Flames products have been swiped by a scalper group
