w00t! Finally! Thanks!

Highimpact1 @ Mar 3rd 2008 9:31PM

I absolutely love your podcasts, and I really liked having David back on for the episode.

Glitch W @ Mar 3rd 2008 10:19PM

David's back! I still want Terrence to get on a fancast though

Urza @ Mar 3rd 2008 11:04PM

Ah ha! That explains the feed problems... Dustin is trying to keep David off the show.. he's sabotaging this episode of the podcast. Alexander might be involved too.. the new found stardom might have gone to his head and he's formed a temporary alliance with the Dustin to keep David from taking his job back!

Or not..

Good to hear everyone again. :)

jakfoood @ Mar 4th 2008 12:44AM

So.... will the feeds be supporting the psp any time soon?

Hey Apples @ Mar 4th 2008 1:22AM

On the subject of No Doubt DLC from the podcast:

Everything makes so much more sense on Rock Band... it's not exclusive to one band.

Philip @ Mar 4th 2008 2:27AM

Good to hear David is back for one Fancast, but this brings up the quastion of will the "other new guy" ever make it to the Fancast?

Greg B. @ Mar 4th 2008 2:49AM

Yeah, it's nice to have Knockers Johnson back.

alkeels @ Mar 4th 2008 4:41AM

Hooooray! Keep them coming guys, can't wait to listen to this one!

Richard,
In regards to that rock band guitar - just call EA support, the number is on the last page of the manual for rock band. I had a problem with mine and just gave them a call, they were very nice and quick to get me a replacement.

stewie @ Mar 4th 2008 8:26AM

JAKEJAX @ Mar 4th 2008 8:51AM

There is a problem downloading this on iTunes.

DaveC @ Mar 4th 2008 9:09AM

Oh my god, there are 2 testostorones in this episode!

AJ @ Mar 4th 2008 9:23AM

I wish you guys would stop telling each other how boring the others are. It's just rude. We are tuning into an Xbox360 fancast, so there is a good chance we would enjoy the minutiae. I think you all are just kidding each other most of the time, but when someone makes the snoring sound, it just makes them sound like an ass, IMO.

Xav de Matos @ Mar 4th 2008 9:24AM

We're still having some reply issues so here I go answering some questions for you guys.

@Highimpact1: Glad you enjoyed Knux as our guest

@Glitch W: Knux was only a guest, Terrence will make his way here eventually and we'll probably alternate since 5 man shows go a little crazy!

@jakfoood: Our RSS ninjas are working on a few things, including an enhanced RSS feed. Maybe this is part of it, but I don't know for sure.

@Philip: Terrence will be here eventually!

@remer: Email us at fancast [AT] xbox360fanboy [DOT] com

@JAKEJAX: As explained in the post, we're having tech issues with some of the feeds.

@DaveC: He who did not play ERAGON wins the MAN AWARD... :)

GazzaScotland @ Mar 4th 2008 10:18AM

WOOO! Popples, I thought I was the only person who remembered. Still have an old video tape of it.

At school at the moment, so I'll grab this when I go home in 20 minutes or so.

Bluemanrule @ Mar 4th 2008 10:46AM

Knuckles,

If you really are going to give away Lost Odyssey, I will take it. It looks amazing and it would be the first RPG, outside of Mass Effect, that I actually want to finish. Unless a giveaway contest is pending, slide it this way. Love the show.

Knuckles Dawson @ Mar 4th 2008 11:35AM

I rented Eragon for a particle article on a particular website. It shows my dedication to my duty to the readers, Xav.

Man up.

DaveC @ Mar 4th 2008 11:49AM

I think I've started something here :)

bartons @ Mar 4th 2008 12:57PM

Knuckles needs to not be invited back. Too annoying for words, crowds in on every discussion even when he doesn't have anything to contribute, makes snarky comments just to hear himself ... really, why was he brought back?

Eric @ Mar 4th 2008 2:26PM

BLOGGER ABUSE!

I had hoped my e-mail would have at least made people think about things first...so sad.

Dustin Burg @ Mar 4th 2008 3:29PM

a new fancast! WOOHOOZA!

DaveC @ Mar 4th 2008 6:04PM

I hope you guys help me pass the time on my journey tomorrow. Going from Aberdeen to Dundee (scotland) look it up on google maps. Deliberately missed last weeks so I had something to listen to both ways.

Got an interview for university to study a degree in computer games technology. Wish me luck.

Dustin Burg @ Mar 5th 2008 8:55AM

@DaveC - Good luck and make me proud!

James Lockwood @ Mar 5th 2008 12:18PM

Great Podcast, guys (not you Alex). My favourite moment was when you mimicked Elmo and freaked out Dustin - he was almost ready to cry. You have to bring Elmo back. And Yoda...

Any other voices you're great at?

Chris @ Mar 6th 2008 3:15PM

Hey X3F!

Just finished listening-always a good time and informative to boot! I was just wondering what the deal with all the bad language on this episode? Usually, I've been able to play it on speakers while I work, but now I'm going to have to switch to ear phones I think...just sorta disappointed me as you guys are usually funny enough while keeping it (somewhat) clean. Otherwise, great work!
