  1. You missed a MAJOR part of Archon. The squares are white or black, and some cycle from light to dark. If you’re playing light, your unit becomes more powerful on light squares, and if you’re playing dark, the reverse is true. The point of the game was to capture all the power squares, most of which were cycling between light and dark.

    Archon was super-addictive, especially against friends. It was there with MULE as a staple for most machines.

    PS. The sorceress isn’t evil, she’s the dark, the night.

  2. It’s been a few weeks since I have replied to the QoTW due to moving house and then a change of ISP (finally I’m paying less than £40 a month for 8Mb/s broadband!).
    Over the last two or three days I have downloaded and listened to 5 weeks worth of your podcasts and enjoyed all of them immensely, as per usual.

    On to the question of the week; any, and all, of the Halo games.I have played the original three games but not ODST and the /abomination/ that is Halo Wars (Real Time Strategy should never, I repeat; NEVER be ported to consoles). I have never felt the need to replay any of the Halo games because, apart from the feeling of ‘meh’ that they make you feel after playing, they did something I hate… They released the first game on the PC with a decent port, but then the Halo 2 port to the PC was, and I’m being as kind as I can here, totally diabolical. First of all, you needed Vista… Need I say more?
    Halo 3 was pretty good… But entirely predictable and again left me with a feeling of ‘meh’. I am the only true PC Gamer in a fairly large group of Xbox 360 owners… And they don’t understand my pain! I tried to show them how FPS’s /should/ be played in terms of Multiplayer (i.e. in a 32 player server with some decent admins) but they still do not see the light!
    The only other games that I have played and then decided never to play again are usually games that I just hate, like the new Wolfenstein game (awful awful game) and… Well Mario Galaxy was terrible as well. Other than that I cannot think of anything else!
    Cheers, and peace 🙂

Due to a familial emergency, TD Gaming Podcast is on temporary hiatus. This week is basically an outtake episode, though a bit short because for the last three months or so, the podcast has been pretty clean. However, there are some interesting conversations that you never got to hear.

There’s even an entire news item back from CES that was completely cut, and now you get to hear ten weeks later. Old news is so much fun!

Thanks for your patience, and we’ll have some new podcasts in a few weeks, we promise.

This week, Sony responds to Microsoft’s nearly $69B purchase of Activision/Blizzard by buying Bungie for $4B. The guys cover Sony’s State of Play 2022, which turned out to be entirely about Gran Turismo 6.

Well, we hinted at it in the last few podcasts, and now it is live: TD Gaming Podcast is now looking for listener support through Kickstarter. To learn more about some interesting games to try, you should check out, sattaking.

The more money, the longer we can go without worrying about server subscriptions.
