The year is 2010. The world is considerably less futuristic than Hollywood led us to believe. Aside from that, we get some new recording equipment, and do the podcast in REVERSE ORDER. First a rambling chat on the similarities, disparities, and uniqueities (not a word) between the year’s first two big (and only) releases: Bayonetta and Darksiders.

land of the -dying- sun? – podcast 03

Sean — Sat, 03 Oct 2009 07:00:14 +0000

Is Japan’s games industry really dying? What can developers in the homeland of videogames do to save their dwindling market and what exactly divides East games from West games? After a full week with ODST we both seem to have reached the same opinion albeit via different routes and in News we discuss the double TGS whammy announcement of Cave going region-free and Super Street Fighter IV. Also Sean completely flubs the actual podcast number when introducing the show. Fun!- 02h09m55s – 77mb

prepare for battle! – podcast 01

Sean — Sat, 19 Sep 2009 16:00:06 +0000

On the first regular season podcast we delve into a discussion on the shmup community and the Call of Duty series. In news we handpick some articles and announcements that we feel the larger news outlets ignore. Miraculously sandwiched in-between all that we spend a good hour and some change on the current state of achievements/trophies; their importance in the industry, what we like, don’t like, and the direction(s) we think console manufacturers and developers should take them in the future. – 02h27m07s – 89mb

Games Discussed: Raiden IV, Call of Duty: World at War, Mass Effect, Ridge Racer 6, Gears of War 2, Bionic Commando, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion and more.

Intro: $tunt$ – Flying Lotus / Outro: Boards of Canada – Dayvan Cowboy

the secrets of raiden IV

Sean — Wed, 16 Sep 2009 19:58:48 +0000

UFO games the US publisher of Raiden IV, rather surreptitiously has provided a “Raiden IV Secret File” downloadable PDF document. Contained inside is some great looking high-resolution art, technical blow-out drawings of nearly every enemy in the game, damage tables for the various weapons and sub-weapons in the game and most notably, locations for almost all the hidden ‘Sol’ towers in each level.
