Xbox 360 Fancast 086 -- Proof, Meet Pudding

Posted Oct 6th 2008 4:45PM by Richard Mitchell
Filed under: Podcasts


Now, we've read some comments complaining that it's hard to tell the difference between the voices of Alexander and Dustin. Frankly, it's something we've never understood. They sound completely different. Like, totally. But there is a new comment, and that is that Richard (that's me!) sounds exactly like Chris Grant from the Joystiq Podcast. This is patently false, and we're going to prove it.

Oh, and we also cover the latest news* .... yadda, yadda, yadda. Download and learn.

*We were totally wrong about the Alan Wake trailer, too.

Thanks to Stuart Harper for the disturbing image!

Xbox 360 Fancast 085 -- Space Janitors

Posted Sep 29th 2008 3:45PM by Richard Mitchell
Filed under: Podcasts, Dead Space


This week we have some special guests on the Xbox 360 Fancast. We have Community Manager Ben Swanson and Online Marketing Manager Andrew Green from Electronic Arts to discuss Dead Space and its No Known Survivors campaign. Beyond that we have the usual news and chicanery with the added bonus of more British accents. It's okay though, because Alexander loves BBC America. It's actually worth listening to this one, we promise.

Xbox 360 Fancast 084 -- Fanboys Tell 'em

Posted Sep 22nd 2008 6:30PM by Richard Mitchell
Filed under: Podcasts


What would any given week be like without a new episode of the Xbox 360 Fancast. Peaceful? Prosaic? World-rending? We don't know and, frankly, we don't want to find out. Actually, come to think of it, we've missed a week before. For the life of us, we can't remember what happened as a result that week. Is that what missing a week causes: amnesia? Whatever it is, you'd better play it safe and listen to the latest episode.

Xbox 360 Fancast 083 -- Totally Boned

Posted Sep 15th 2008 6:45PM by Richard Mitchell
Filed under: Podcasts


Despite our own best judgment and several threats, we have published yet another episode of the Xbox 360 Fancast. This week we discuss all the latest and greatest on the Xbox 360 and also wander far far off topic. Don't worry though because it's hilarious. At least we thought it was at the time. We also take on serious topics like the changing face of gaming journalism and ... um ... VelocityGirl. Listen, and listen well.

Filed under: Podcasts


The Xbox 360 Fancast is (more or less) back to normal this week. The gang is (mostly) recovered after both PAX and too many late nights with Castle Crashers. This week, we chat about all the fun that Xav and Dustin had at PAX as well as covering the week's biggest Xbox 360 news. Finally, we come up with a word for games that are un-delayed.

Special thanks to Venom Shot, keep on chug-chug-chuggin' along!

Xbox 360 Fancast Special -- PAX 2008

Posted Sep 2nd 2008 12:00PM by Xav de Matos
Filed under: Podcasts


Well we have good news and bad news. The good news is we recorded an awesome X3F Fancast live in Seattle during PAX 2008! The bad news is, due to cellphone interference with the equipment, the audio came out pretty bad. So, instead of releasing nothing we thought we'd at least put it up for anyone brave enough to hear our impressions from the show. Xav and Dustin are joined by Joystiq's Kevin Kelly and PS3Fanboy's Jem Alexander (don't worry, we rag on him for his Sony love). Again, we apologize and promise to be back to normal next week!

Xbox 360 Fancast 081 -- Pacifism is a Strange Word

Posted Aug 25th 2008 5:45PM by Richard Mitchell
Filed under: Podcasts


This week on the Xbox 360 Fancast we have a very special guest, none other than Matthew McCarthy, the writer of "Geometry Wars Will Be the Death of Me." You may recognize him better as "that dude that wrote the Geometry Wars song." We probe Matt's mind and discover what inspired the song and we even play the new full band version of his song. Of course we also have our usual news and even an X08 report from Xav. Give the show a listen and enjoy.

Also, don't forget to check out the X3F Fancast Defense Force Podcast, made by some of our most stalwart fans.

Episode 080. Wow. What can we say? It seems appropriate that this show drops the week after Madden 09. The more things change, the more they stay the same, so they say. As such, we bring you this fresh Fancast that is much the same as it ever was. We've got news, Fanmail, Fantalk and everything you've come to expect from us. And, thanks to Madden 09, we've got a heavy dose of footbaaaaalllll! Listen as we ponder our own existence (not really) and discuss just what the heck we're going to do for episode 100 (we really do talk about that).

Xbox 360 Fancast 079 -- Ah, Euphemisms

Posted Aug 11th 2008 5:30PM by Richard Mitchell
Filed under: Podcasts


We are, perhaps, belaboring the point now, but we really like Braid. Some of us like it more than others -- maybe even to an unhealthy degree -- but we all agree that it's a pretty wonderful game. But it wouldn't be a Fancast if all we did was gush about Braid (at least that what everyone told me when I wouldn't shut up about it), so we cover the usual gamut of Xbox 360 news and welcome back our long lost "Best Comment of the Week" feature. We'll give you a hint: the name of the feature is ironic.

Xbox 360 Fancast 078 -- Progressively More Erotic

Posted Aug 5th 2008 5:05PM by Richard Mitchell
Filed under: Podcasts


Welcome to episode 078 of the Xbox 360 Fancast. This week, we proudly welcome Xav back into the fold. He was apparently receiving threats for not being on the show. We care for his safety, so we decided he should probably come back. As usual, we take time to discuss the latest news, but that's small potatoes compared to our fanmail this week. Listen. Seriously.

Hang tight: New Fancast coming tomorrow

Filed under: Fan stuff


Okay, we apologize. Some crazy things went down last week, and the Fancast is going to be a little late. Specifically, it will be hitting the internets starting tomorrow. Of course, we don't want to give away the whole show. That said, we can't leave our dedicated fans with nothing. As such, know this: Xav is back. Oh, and one more thing. Stay tuned.

Xbox 360 Fancast 077 -- Feudin'

Filed under: Podcasts


Now that E3 is long gone and we've had a week off to rest, the Fancast is back in full force. Okay, so it's almost back in full force. Unfortunately, Xav couldn't make it for this episode. That's okay, because he probably would have been totally jealous of the rest of the crew talking about all the awesome stuff they did at E3 anyway. That is what we do, by the way. This episode is a wrap-up of our E3 coverage. We talk about the games we played, the events we witnessed and we all pick our personal favorite games of the show.

Oh, and Dustin also picks a fight with Justin McElroy of the Joystiq podcast. Let the feud begin.

No Fancast this week

Posted Jul 21st 2008 2:00PM by Richard Mitchell
Filed under: Fan stuff


Hey fanboys, after the incredibly hectic week that was E3, we've decided to take a break from the Fancast this week. We won't be canceling an announcement or anything, and this is definitely not a hoax. It's the real deal. No Fancast. Sorry. We're all exhausted from E3 and truth be told, our fearless leader (hey, that's me!) is on vacation. We'll be back next week with episode 077 and our wrap-up of E3 (and any other OMG megatons that happen to drop between now and then). See you soon.

Wow. We're really still doing these. Ahem. It's late, once again, but it's still E3 and that means you get another special edition of the Xbox 360 Fancast. Today we talk about our impressions of the XBLA offerings at E3 (Castle Crashers!), Halo Wars, Silent Hill Homecoming, and much much more. Oh, and yes, we're still super tired and super loopy. Enjoy.

Filed under: Podcasts


Hey everyone, let's make this super clear, everyone on the X3F crew is dog tired. We made this episode running on nothing but pure nerve, and it shows. Today we endeavor to talk about Gears of War 2 multiplayer details, Fallout 3, Fable 2, Banjo Kazooie, and many other topics. Oh, and by the way, Left 4 Dead is freaking awesome. Listen to the show and wish us luck in the remaining days of E3. Luck, and an extra reserve of sanity.
