Xbox 360 Fancast 129 -- Boing Boing Ratta Tatta

by Richard Mitchell { Aug 10th 2009 at 6:45PM }

We got an email not to long ago claiming that it was impossible to get all four hosts of the Fancast nowadays. Given the fact that we are once again short one member (Xav) this week, we're starting to agree. Whether it's some sort of curse that has been placed upon us or simple bad timing, who's to say?

Apart from our missing cohort, we discuss a bevy of interesting topics this week, including the possible phasing out of the 360 Pro console and a surefire way to make Alexander hate you during a match of Battlefield 1943. All this an more lies before you in this, the 129th episode of the Xbox 360 Fancast. Download it!

I just noticed that Xav is about to beat the shit of out of Sonic.

Come on, Xav, he promised he would change!

Richard,

Small tip on soldering.
Heat up the wire with the soldering iron and then touch the filler with the wire instead of the other way.
It'll make you life a lot less messy.

Oh and older Xbox controller (bigger connectors) is a lot easier to work with than newer ones (microscopic connectors, probably a lot cheaper to make).

Hey Richard,

Mass Effect in Games on Demand is worth $99 here.

I've been anti-Avatars since the NXE came out and I'm not gonna lie, I kinda want the Gears of War 2 COG armor.

And Richard I'd like to be your friend too but your XBL friends list is full.

Professor Mitchell has not an easy job with the childish arguments between Alexander aka "Halo gamers are stupid teenagers" and Dustin aka "I am more popular than you among the XBF listeners and you should get kicked of the show".
I guess everybody needs vacation.
