Xbox 360 Fancast 063 -- The Arrival

by Richard Mitchell { Apr 7th 2008 at 7:30PM }

It's time for yet another episode of the Xbox 360 Fancast. This episode marks a very special occasion, the first appearance of our newest "new guy," Terrence! It's kind of strange though, because Xav was "busy" and had other things to attend to. We were hoping that we could prove once and for all that Xav and Terrence are in fact different people, but it looks like we'll have to wait. Oh, and we also have the usual news, fanmail, and et cetera. Download and be happy.

Xav de Matos @ Apr 7th 2008 8:27PM

Shhhhhhhh!

Jayslacks @ Apr 7th 2008 7:39PM

I really, really need some podcast time. Monday's make me want to rip my spine out. Which is always fun. Oh! Can you have a game night with Dustin Berg returning to Gears of War? Please?

mcwattersm @ Apr 7th 2008 7:42PM

Dustin went to college? I thought he was 16. Sorry little buddy.

Dustin Burg @ Apr 7th 2008 10:16PM

i actually went to college at 16 ...

mcwattersm @ Apr 7th 2008 11:17PM

Community college?

ManicBomber @ Apr 7th 2008 7:46PM

I would love to be able to change the picture in my profile, but even though I'm using my username and password to post this message I can't log into my profile "invalid password".

Xav de Matos @ Apr 7th 2008 11:59PM

Try posting a comment somewhere on Joystiq and log in from there.

Seems our side is having some issues at the moment.

andyface @ Apr 7th 2008 7:48PM

hurrah for new X3f podcast, I'll have to listen to it tomorrow though as I need sleep now!

Greg B. @ Apr 7th 2008 7:50PM

Do Dustin and Alexander get in a fight in this one?

DaMan09 @ Apr 7th 2008 7:57PM

Can I haz fixed zune album art?

Xav de Matos @ Apr 7th 2008 7:59PM

From what I know we're trying to fix that issue.

DaMan09 @ Apr 7th 2008 8:04PM

Good work there Xav!

ZenGaijin @ Apr 7th 2008 9:37PM

I thought it was just me that had that issue. I even tried to unsubscribe then resubscribe to solve it with no luck.

Xav de Matos @ Apr 7th 2008 9:53PM

I think we hoped it was a simple fix, but apparently it'll take some time.

We're definitely looking into it, just so you're aware.

Like the RSS issue and the Reply. We're always looking for ways to make your experience with us that much better.

DaMan09 @ Apr 7th 2008 11:59PM

Just to lend a helping hand, i know how the Zune software aggregates the Album art. It uses what the feed logo is, as seen in this helpful picture:

If you ever fix the feed, could you please send joystiq a note how to fix this as well? so i can see that glorious album art on my zune.

Thanks, and keep up the great fancasts

Xav de Matos @ Apr 8th 2008 7:19AM

I don't know if it's that simple. But we're working on it.

Also, you own a Mac and you have a Zune?

How did that happen?!

DaMan09 @ Apr 8th 2008 6:30PM

I like to be in minority groups?

DeltaLoko @ Apr 7th 2008 8:17PM

Thanks for the great fancast guys

Jayslacks @ Apr 7th 2008 8:58PM

"I don't think Achievements should take Skill to unlock, personally." Classic Dustin Berg...

ray42 @ Apr 7th 2008 8:59PM

Another great episode. Where is this video with the "Get in the car, get in the car Xav!" quote.

ray42 @ Apr 7th 2008 9:44PM

Yup sry bout that. I found it anyway. It was great, keep up the good work.

Ryan @ Apr 7th 2008 10:12PM

I need an AAC RSS feed

Xav de Matos @ Apr 7th 2008 11:09PM

I think Rich mentioned in the cast that an enhanced AAC feed is in the works.

Stay tuned.

DeltaLoko @ Apr 8th 2008 8:15AM

what do you guys mean buy "enhanced AAC"? Is there a difference between that and the other formats?

Deezul @ Apr 8th 2008 9:02AM

Alexander, I have some used gamer cards, lots of magazines I've read, and other assorted crap I'll send you. FOR FREE. So you can't complain, right? BECAUSE IT'S FREE.

Nick Nelson @ Apr 8th 2008 10:30AM

Is it just me or was Terrence's voice horribly garbled throughout the podcast. Xav, fix your voice changing software.

JAKEJAX @ Apr 8th 2008 12:11PM

I had a chuckle on that comment. The mystery continues.

Lewis @ Apr 8th 2008 11:30AM

Fun times this week, Miss having Xav though, He's our local ch33v0-holic we can't do without.

The X3F Fancast image shows on my mp3, finally :) I have A Creative Zen Vision:W

Have you tried MediaMonkey to tag your stuff? It's windows only though. I dk if that'll help.

Eddy @ Apr 11th 2008 5:53PM

Couldn't agree more that the idiot kids ruin xbox live. Is there a network somewhere of late 20 - early 30 year olds that work all day at a full time job? I want to join that group.
