So, with the pilot episode done and dusted, we decided to have another go with all the hosts…

Except Karl couldn’t make it, so this week, it’s just John, Jon (Kam) and Caleb.

What We Should Be Playing

We kick off our first officially numbered show with a discussion on the games we should be playing. If, like us, you have a tendency to buy games on impulse, you might have forked over the £40/$60 for an interesting title, only to have it sat there on your pile of shame, barely (if at all) played. These are our’s.

2011 First Quarter Releases – Part Two

Continuing on from the pilot episode, we cover some more of the new releases to expect in the first quarter of 2011 (that’s this year). We cover Test Drive Unlimited 2, kind of, Bulletstorm, Homefront, Pokemon White/Black, Shogun 2, Crysis 2, and Dynasty Warriors 7, because Kam insisted.

Freestylin’

So, we decided to have a segment where we basically talked for a little while, without really planning anything. Yes, believe it or not, the other segments have some planning behind them. The topic we went with was under-represented aspects in games, which could be game mechanics, stories, ethnic minorities, etc. As you might expect, the conversation did stray onto the other subjects from time to time, but it’s all good.

Pimpin’ Goodbyes

It turns out that Jon’s Borderlands’ YouTube video had a slight technical hitch with the audio, so it’s not live at the time of this podcast, however Jon insists that it will be up, eventually. When it is, you can find it at VWFKamikaze on YouTube. Caleb’s only ongoing project is this, so keep your eyes out for the next podcast, and I’m putting my Twitter account out there in the narcissistic hope of getting followers.

We would love to get some listener input for the next show, be it questions, suggestions, or even just letting us know what you think of the podcast. Get in touch by mailing us at igh@drivebychicken.com.
