    Dan, Bob, and Dr. Aggro host a pod­cast to talk about all the recent hap­pen­ings in the gam­ing com­mu­nity and what they’re play­ing recently. From David Cage’s recent soapbox-ing to Kaos Stu­dios story behind Home­front, Giga­Boots cov­ers it all. Well, most of it any­way. Okay, fine, just some of it!

    1. First off: Yay for links ! So thanks for that. Sec­ondly, I think i asked that before but would you ever con­sider doing podcasts/discussions for spe­cific games (like GW2 for exam­ple) ? Kinda like QPs but more in depth about story, mechan­ics and your opin­ions after spend­ing some time with it.

      Also: 47 mins ? What the hell do you expect me to do with the rest of my day ?!

      I have no idea what to do with the rest of your day but I will hope­fully the get the site in “con­stant flow of con­tent” mode pretty soon here (by next month hope­fully.) As for the type of con­tent you’re ask­ing for, I kind of think our new for­mat we’re work­ing on for reviews will fix that. Maybe.

      An entire pod­cast about Guild Wars 2? I know I’d be totally down for it.

      …although it would prob­a­bly end up being me start­ing sen­tences with, “You know how in WoW–”, fol­lowed by an awk­ward silence wherein Dan and Bob stare at me with increas­ing frus­tra­tion at my appar­ent lack of abil­ity to main­tain aware­ness of the fact that nei­ther of them have any real expe­ri­ence with the game. After that it would most likely be me attempt­ing to stam­mer a brief sum­mary of the mechanic in ques­tion, lead­ing into a hur­ried and embar­rassed expla­na­tion of the GW2 ver­sion of said mechanic, end­ing in my try­ing to make bring­ing it up at all rel­e­vant with­out the use of com­par­isons to World of Warcraft.

      …sounds like every day of my life recently.
