Xbox 360 Fancast 134 -- Roosters Don't Have Teeth Redux

by Richard Mitchell { Sep 14th 2009 at 6:15PM }

It's been a long time since we chatted with the folk at Rooster Teeth (almost 100 episodes!). With Red vs Blue still going strong and a new Halo 3: ODST ad campaign underway, we figured it was time to go at it again. We also talk about Sonic and the fools that keep crawling back to him, only to watch him speed away and laugh. Download it, and always remember: Camping is a legitimate strategy.

Xbox 360 Fancast 133 -- Bro'in Out, eh?

by Xav de Matos { Sep 7th 2009 at 3:45PM }

Even with Richard and Dustin heading off to PAX, the X3F train rolls on. Alexander and Xav tackle a pile of Fanmail and bring special guest Jake Reardon (Xbox Canada's Community Manager) along for the journey. We laugh, discuss the gaming industry and drink brandy from fancy glasses ... like gentlemen.

Xbox 360 Fancast 132 -- Flexibility

by Richard Mitchell { Aug 31st 2009 at 6:15PM }

We've got an interesting show this week. We spend quite a bit of time talking about the Elite price cut as well as the "flexibility" offered by not including HDMI or component cables in the new bundle. We also grill Alexander about GamesCom and his recent trip to Germany. Of course, there's all the other usual malarkey and hullabaloo as well. Enjoy.

Xbox 360 Fancast 131 -- The Pursuit of Chairness

by Richard Mitchell { Aug 24th 2009 at 5:20PM }

So, Shadow Complex came out last week. In case you haven't heard, we kind of liked it. So, we thought it would be a good opportunity to wrangle some time with Donald Mustard, creative director of Chair Entertainment, the studio behind Shadow Complex. Download the show to learn about the game, the Mustard family and just how the Chair name came to be.

Xbox 360 Fancast 130 -- An Absolute Steal

by Richard Mitchell { Aug 17th 2009 at 6:15PM }

We talk about a lot of things on this episode of the Fancast. We talk about Steven Spielberg, Halo and some other mishegoss. The really important thing is that we talk about this week's XBLA release, Shadow Complex. We've all had our hands on the game for a while now and, as it turns out, it's pretty good. Of course, if you read Joystiq, you already know that. But why settle for reading a review of the game when you can hear us talk about it?

Yeah, case closed.

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!

Xbox 360 Fancast 128 -- Who Moved Christmas?

by Richard Mitchell { Aug 3rd 2009 at 5:15PM }

We're one short this week, as Dustin was off doing something more important (and perhaps illicit). And yet, we still soldier on. After all, you need your Fancast and we're here to make sure you get it. Download the latest for plenty of news, fanmail and some lengthy discussion on Shadow Complex. Also, we've got special music this week, "Donuts, Go Nuts!" from 'Splosion Man. It's good.

Xbox 360 Fancast 127 -- Not Mad, Just Disappointed

by Richard Mitchell { Jul 27th 2009 at 4:45PM }

This week on the Xbox 360 Fancast, we've got lots of Halo news. We also have Gears of War news. We honestly couldn't help it. Beyond that, we've got tons of fanmail, new user-submitted music, and an extended discussion about our experience with the new Xbox Live Update. Listen and love.

Oh, and the Chrisopher Walken alien movie? Communion. It was Communion.

Xbox 360 Fancast 126 -- Get to Da 'Splosions

by Richard Mitchell { Jul 20th 2009 at 7:00PM }

We've got lots of great stuff on the Xbox 360 Fancast this week. First, as you've probably noticed, we have some spiffy new podcast art courtesy of longtime listener Chris Majewsky (Magic Whiskey) and our own Xav de Matos. Be sure to check out more of Chris' work here. On top of that, we've got an interview with Michael Wilford, CEO of Twisted Pixel, creator of the upcoming 'Splosion Man for Xbox Live Arcade. And, of course, we take some time to talk about the Xbox Live dashboard update, which was announced last week. Get listening!

Xbox 360 Fancast 125 -- Domo Arigato

by Richard Mitchell { Jul 13th 2009 at 7:55PM }

We're going to be as frank as possible here: This episode was fraught with technical issues. For the most part, they will be undetectable to the listener, for they have been deftly edited out. One ... interesting issue, however, remains. Richard (that's me) comes out sounding like a cyborg. Other than that, it's just a typically awesome episode of the Xbox 360 Fancast. Enjoy.

Also, we're on the lookout for listener music submissions. To submit a song you'd like to hear, head over to music.mevio.com (or any service that offers music for podcasts), find some music you like, and send a link to fancast [att] joystiq [dawt] com. If we choose to use your song, we'll be sure to give a shout-out. Also, we're always open to original music submissions as well.

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?
