We're going to be honest with you fanboys. It's been a long day. As such, the Fancast is arriving a little later than we would have liked. Rest assured though, we had good reason. What reason could that be, you ask? Why, so we could bring you a brand new enhanced podcast, that's why! Now, before you whoop, holler, and jump for joy, you should know that said enhanced podcast has not yet been set up with its own RSS feed just yet. After all, we wouldn't want our subscribers with unsupported hardware to be left out in the cold. As such, it's only available as a direct download this week. We're doing our best to get a new feed set up, but it could be a while. Still, however you choose to listen, make sure you do, because this week's show is a doozy. Download it in whatever manner you so choose below.
[iTunes] Subscribe to the Podcast directly in iTunes (MP3).
[Zune] Subscribe to the Podcast directly in Zune Marketplace (MP3).
[RSS MP3] Add the Xbox 360 Fanboy Podcast feed (in MP3) to your RSS aggregator and have the show delivered automatically.
[AAC] Download the enhanced AAC directly.
[MP3] Download the MP3 directly.
Hosts: Richard Mitchell (SenseiRAM), Dustin Burg (SuperDunners), Alexander Sliwinski (Sli Xander)
Produced by Richard Mitchell
Music: Intro/Outro: "Electromooq" by Uma Floresta. Break: "One Too Many Two Times" [this is erroneously listed as "One Too Many Good Times" in the enhanced podcast] by The Gentlemen Callers

Nope, just more depressing monotone comments. Music maybe? Something to keep me awake? Sorry but its true.

Could you at least make the itunes feed the enhanced version, since if you are using itunes, I am pretty sure you have an ipod.

That's the plan, yeah. But right now, the iTunes feed *is* our only RSS feed. In other words, we have to set up a second RSS feed before we can do that.

I shudder to comprehend the license issue(s) around TV themes on GHIII, but I would pay 500 MS Points for 3-track pack if it had the Macgyver theme!! :P

Sweet fancast, I thought I would have the patience to download it and listen to it tomorrow at work but I needed my fix and needed it right now.
Nice bloopers section this time, I noticed Richard that you are now beyond caring when it comes to bleeping out expletives!! Good for you though I would carry an advisory for kids!!
Keep up the good works

I would love to have The Wonder Years theme song on Rock Band(if its not already there). Also would like the Portal song in a couple of different versions. When we are on theme songs, there are some really classic movie ones which they should put up there like the Slash rendition of GodFather theme music and Chariots of Fire theme song, Last of the Mohicans theme music, Lord of the Rings Battle Music!!

LOTR battle music is a great idea - what about some of The Matrix fight scene music tracks too? That one from the big Agent Smith rumble in Matrix Reloaded would be fun

Sooooo...about the 360 shortage you mentioned in the podcast. What about the old rumors about a 360 HD-DVD 360? There was word that Gates cut a lot about HD-DVD at his CES keynote. What if they were going to announce it at CES then when Warners dropped the hammer they knew that an HD-DVD 360 would be a huge flop so they pulled it? Now they have to retool to put DVD drives back in?
Just my conspiracy theory. Keep up the good work.

So are there going to be more Enhanced Podcasts from now on? I plan to get the enhanced one, but it'd be awkard for me it not being in my podcast menu so I'll wait for a feed.

There will be one every week, yes. Hopefully we'll have a new feed set up next week.

Dustin have you played Call of Duty 4 yet?
Have any of you guys played it as a matter of interest?
I would like to hear your views on the game as it is the No.1 game on live at the moment and it sounds like none of you guys have played it, which is a bit strange.
