Once again, we provide you, our dear listeners, with a fresh episode of the Xbox 360 Fancast. This week, we chat about important console features, ODST and more.

Xbox 360 Fancast 123 -- Rebound

by Richard Mitchell { Jun 22nd 2009 at 4:00PM }

We know, we know, it's been a while. And, for that, we're sorry. Between E3 recovery, vacations and crippling sickness, we just haven't had a Fancast out for a while. Fret no more, for the show is finally back and better than ever. Well, okay, not better than ever. After all, Xav was still sick for this one, so you'll have to make do with only 75 percent of our usual awesome.

PSA: No Xbox 360 Fancast this week

by Richard Mitchell { Jun 15th 2009 at 6:00PM }

You read that right, there will be no Fancast this week. Suffice it to say that one of us is still adjusting to life after a vacation (me), while another one of us is recovering from a nasty bout with food poisoning (Xav). Strangely enough, it had absolutely nothing to do with Marmite, either. We promise we'll be back next week with a fresh episode for you all to enjoy. Until then, why not watch this again?

Xbox 360 Fancast 119 -- E3 2009 Special 1

by Richard Mitchell { Jun 3rd 2009 at 4:00PM }

Okay, so we're two days late on our first E3 podcast. Please accept our profuse and humble apologies. Suffice it to say that the first time we recorded the podcast covering Microsoft's press briefing, it was mysteriously deleted. So, here it is again in its re-recorded glory. We'll have another episode going up later today.

Xbox 360 Fancast 117 -- One One Seven

by Richard Mitchell { May 18th 2009 at 6:15PM }

It's a very special week for the Xbox 360 Fancast everyone. In celebration of reaching episode 117 -- incidentally the ID number of our favorite Spartan, Master Chief John-117 -- we ~~forced~~ peaceably coerced Bungie's Community Lead Brian Jarrard to appear on the show. We shoot the breeze about ODST, the new film rendering feature for Halo 3, shenanigans and much more.

Listen to the latest episode for Bungie-infused goodness.

Xbox 360 Fancast 116 delayed this week

by Richard Mitchell { May 11th 2009 at 6:45PM }

Fanboys and girls, thanks to an unfortunate (and very annoying) audio glitch, the Xbox 360 Fancast will be delayed a bit this week. The show will actually have to be re-recorded, so expect it to be up by Wednesday. Apologies all around. We promise to make up for it by making the episode spine-tinglingly marvelous. Or at least average.

Xbox 360 Fancast 115 -- Fools and the Pitying of Them

by Richard Mitchell { May 4th 2009 at 7:05PM }

It's true folks, disaster almost fell upon the Fancast this week. No, we were never in danger of not recording the new episode. We were, however, in danger of forgetting to mention the announcement of the Mr. T game. Thankfully, at the last moment, we pulled through. We also talk about the normal news and Xav's trip to FunSpot Arcade. Listen to the latest episode ... and pity the fools that don't.

Xbox 360 Fancast 114 -- Resident Man

by Richard Mitchell { Apr 27th 2009 at 8:00PM }

The Xbox 360 Fancast continues to plow through the audiosphere, this week bringing with it another new episode. We do the usual thing: We talk news, answer some fanmail and complain about Apple's customer service. Oh wait, that last one isn't part of our usual routine at all. We do it anyway. Listen and discover why this episode (paradoxically) almost became the episode that never was.

Oh, and Xav is still gone. Jerk.

Xbox 360 Fancast 113 - General Podcast Failure

by Richard Mitchell { Apr 20th 2009 at 7:30PM }

Don't worry, kids. Despite the title, this episode of the Fancast is completely functional. Xav is on hiatus to finish up this "school" business he keeps telling us about, so you'd best get used to the absence of his dulcet tones. This week, we talk about the E74 error warranty extension, the Pirate Bay convictions and Bungie's shenanigans in our recent Mythic Halo 3 Challenge. And, of course, we take a look at the latest news and read some fanmail. Come, stay a while and listen.

Xbox 360 Fancast 112 -- Bad Decisions

by Richard Mitchell { Apr 13th 2009 at 8:00PM }

We return to form this week with the whole crew back on board. We do our usual thing, recounting the week's news, reading fanmail and, again, talking about Microsoft's coffin policy. We also talk about the already controversial Six Days in Fallujah. Download at your leisure.
