Hah, apparently one of their publishers is Conspiracy Inc.

How depressing!

I want Ninjabread Man. Seriously. I'll wait until it's down to $2 USD price level, but I fully intend to buy it someday. Why? Because sometimes it's worth owning a really crappy game just so that you can say, "Hell yeah, I owns that game!"

Yay. The Batman theme song always makes me happy..

Two quick questions.

1. This going to be a weekly thing? Not a problem at all - just need to reschedule my other podcast.

2. Do you need help getting it onto iTunes?

Looking bi-weekly to start.
I don't have iTunes, so yes.

I've been thinking about it, and I think it would be best if someone else took over the hosting of the podcast though, because I'm sure there's another who could do a much better job with it, though I'd still like to be a part of the podcast.

Darth is the obvious choice. If he wants to of course, and even if he doesn't we'll just force him to!

I am listening now.

Darth is an obvious regular. Like a radio presenter. Smooth.

Weird hearing your voices. You should stick to using your user names, Yoda, Darth Foolz. How am I ever suppossed to remember two names for each person damnit? Nyaa Keep it simple stupid as Bill Clinton would say.

I'd say that you guys should maybe make up document with a plan, discussion topics beforehand and forward copies to each other. Commenting on the big news stories of the week is an obvious choice. Maybe have a time limit and segments timed. I would keep what you've been playing to 10 minutes max unless it's a new game that someone wants to talk more about in which case they can forward the request on the planning sheet.

Yodas voice has great sound quality, Darth has a bad line. And Foolz? Damn, echo. Good job though considering you guys are on the other side of the world.

I'm a bit of a news whore and so I would want more discussion on the big stories of the week.

You know what would be cool? A music track in the background, played low so we could still hear the voices clearly but still, a nice instrumental tune in the background would be nice.

Damnit, had to stop listening at 30 minutes. Needs more crazy swearing and freakouts though.

Good feedback, GG.  I actually would have included more news, but it was a slow week, which was part of the reason for letting segments go on a bit longer.

Planned on future podcasts is to have a section on the front page, which would work well with the music in the background.

Still have to listen to the rest later.

What I would say is think of a topic like a thread to comment on beforehand. So for instance: What is your most memorable gaming moment ever? What are your overiding memories of the Dreamcast? What are your top retro VC picks?

Everybody would have something to say, especially if it was forwarded on a podcast sheet a couple of days in advance.
