Played - Episode 8 (we're still alive!)

EPIC PODCAST! EPICAST! HA! Since we were delayed in getting a podcast recorded last week, we decided to combind the two so strap yourself in! :) Also, we?re now using M4A as our primary distrobution format. This means that you will now be able to see the chapters and pictures in iTunes and your iPod.

In Episode 8 we talk about Activision?s recent game releases on Valve?s digital distrobution service ?Steam?, Capcom?s recent decision to desolve Clover Studios (Okami, God Hand, Viewtiful Joe), Judge Ronald Friedman of the Third District Court of Appeals watched a representative from ?Bully? publisher Take Two Interactive and its subsidiary Rockstar play through the game?s schoolyard settings to determine if it?s suitable for release under its current ESRB rating of ?T for Teen?, also according to the study by Los Angeles based Interpret -8.9 million U.S consumers are willing to purchase a Playstation 3 and only 800,000 are willing to purchase an Xbox 360?.hrm, and will the news group Reuters to start appearing in the MMO ?Second Life??

Elizabeth?s always enjoyable gadgetry (wait till you hear this one) is back again. Also, we announce the winners of our 2Kgames contest and read their rants on the air for everyone to enjoy, We read some viewer mail to answer some questions you guys had for us, and (of course) what we?re currently playing, and much much more!

Hope you guys enjoy!

==============================================================




So, Dahanese, Chris Remo, (three friends of mine from another forum) and myself have decided to do this podcast about the video game industry and it's called "Played". We would love love love it if you guys would check it out and lets us know what you think.

The first episode is now out and can be found here, http://web.mac.com/heymarkd (dont forget to subscribe!). I've sent the podcast to Apple this morning for submission to iTunes, so it should be there in a few days. We plan on releaseing an episode once a week (omg episodic podcasting olololo) that's full of our opinions on recent gaming news, what we're currently playing, and of course rants. The first episode runs a full hour, but we're most likely going to cut things back a bit with future episodes and will scale things back to 45mins (or more depending on your comments, so please post them here or send them to hotforplayed@gmail.com).

We hope you enjoy it -we totally had a great time making it! Hope you subscribe, tell your fellow gaming friends, and other forums about us!

Thanks for support!

-Mark

I just don't like the name, for some reason. That's my only gripe. The combination of "Played" with the episodic numbering doesn't roll off the tongue.

Hrm, really? Interesting. You're the first person to tell us you didnt like the name for I've gotten alot of compliments on it. I'm not saying you opinion isnt valid, it's just interesting is all.

Did you like the podcast? :)

It's not the "Played" part I don't like... it's the "Episode X" stuff. It's just a weird, random thing that bothers me. No clue why, and no hatred toward any of you in general! It's probably because the first time I saw the name was when your topic said "Played - Episode 2," what with the HL2 confusion. :p

I haven't been able to listen, unfortunately, because I'm still at work (have to pull an all-nighter; don't ask why) and have no speakers. I am a Remo fan, of course, even though I only have about two or three posts at that "other site." Hope it continues to go well.

Listened to it a few days go. Episode 4 was my the best done so far. Only complaint is the background buzz or whatever on some of the mics but not a big deal really. Enjoying it and plan to continue listening.

I'm enjoying the Podcast but have one minor gripe. One of you guys needs to speak up consistently. I don't know names too well yet but it seems like the girl is louder than both of you (could just be the pitch) and the one who writes for Daily Radar sometimes trails off and I have to turn it up in order to hear. Then I get blasted by the girl's voice. YARR. :)

This is in episode 5 by the way. I haven't made it up to episode 6. Great show though everyone I really enjoy it.

And keep it up with the old school random rap jabs. :p
