The Podcastle records tomorrow, XTIVAL STYLE! photo

OH YEEEEAH SON, THE XTIVAL! YEEEEAH! YEEEEEEAAAAAH!

Except of course, Xtival is rubbish every single year, which is what I am sure we will say when The Podcastle records tomorrow. We shall indeed talk about Xbox Live's European Xtival, which is supposed to be some massive event but nearly always boils down to a free, slightly crap Xbox theme. We'll also find some other garbage to talk about, I'm sure. 

As ever, we need your questions and comments because it saves us filling the last half hour of the show ourselves. If you have something to say, speak now or forever your hold your pease pudding.

Ask lil' Connor what games he's been playing over the past week. First killzone 2, then MGS4, what's next ?

1. Have you been to any real festivals, tell me the funny/sexy shit you have got up to there, spill it Wardrox.
2. If you had to make Bionic Bommand multiplayer more generic, how would you go about it.

Whenever I play multiplayer games I put something on. Do you guys ever play music when gaming? If so, what kind?

Also, is Ashley Davis Anthony's sister (HAWP Girl) or someone else entirely? I'm pretty new to Destructoid so I'm really confused.

Also also, HAWP Girl sounds like a superhero spin-off.

A tad generic but I'm not sure if it's been answered. What are your favourite films and why?

I have a question that you should definitely ask with your voices and listen to with your ears and things:

If you could go back in time and prevent any game or game franchise from being created which would it be and why?

If one console were to emerge victorious from the console wars/shite economy/moneygeddon/whatever, leaving the others bust. Which would you prefer it to be and why?

Why do so many British politicians go after video games, while here in Canada (a former British colony and member of the Commonwealth) there never seems to be any controversy about video games?

(I'm basically giving you a chance to make fun of Canada. Mocking Canadians is essential to our national identity)

We actually got the crap free theme? Sweet! At least its something.

I took the train home that weekend to where my connected Xbox resides, specifically so I could check out my upgraded free gold subscription. I was greeted by the sense of wondering as to why the hell this Xvital thing didn't work, and an explanation video thing which crashed my Xbox! Good for me!

And that's the story of how I became mildly annoyed this weekend...

Do you find yourself playing games with achievements and trophies over other games so you can show off to your friends how good you are? If not, is this at least a small factor in deciding what to play?

Related question: do you play games with story progression or unlockable content more because of this?

Jim have you ever considered freeze drying your spunk and then sending it to atheistium? So it's a "Just add water" sort of thing.

Overcow at 05/04/2009 12:37
If Jim was an iPhone, would Wardrox digest it and later chew on Atheistium's copy of Tomb Radier?

On a side note which game would be better if it was voiced with a British accent?

Last week I posted that Pokémon Hampshire image that had the Bonerquest book in it. To reply to Lauren yes it is in Hampshire and not New Hampshire. I didn't know Lauren lived in Hampshire, after doing some research and finding out from her MySpace page that she lives in Portsmouth I'll have to put her in my game. Not that I wasn't going to anyway but now I know where she should go.

Does Atheistium have a school girl fetish, or does she feel that appealing to her opponents sexual desires will give her an edge in Soul Calibur 4?



I know it didn't help her beat CrocBox...

You commented on a previous episode about Yahtzee's attempt at a television show, and how it was basically ' Yahtzee and two guys' - an internet personality and some friends of his. My friend Scott recently pointed out to me that the Podcastle follows a similar format - Jim (internet superstar) and Lauren and Wardrox, who, despite having more personality than Jim, do spend most of the time on the show laughing at his jokes. I disagreee, but what do you think?

Also, on the topic of British critics, have you noticed the similarities in presentational style between Charlie Brooker (acerbic ranty British TV critic) and Yahtzee (acerbic ranty British) games critic) ?

If Jesus, God, and other various divine beings walked into your recording space right now, what would you say to them. I imagine wardrox would be sarcastic, lauren would get spunked on in the face, and other hilarious hijinks would happen. (alliteration FTW!)

Could Wardrox please say some more things in his disturbingly amusing Wii-Fit voice?

Also could you each try doing impressions of eachother? I think that would be rather chortleworthy. Cheerio.

Ok so i've been thinking:
Will there ever be a next xbox?
digital downloads of full game can be cumbersome for the average user. added to the fact that not everywhere has a great broadband service.
Also microsoft wouldnt want a blu ray player in there xbox and playstation probably wont give them one.
wouldnt developers want more space to play with rather than be restricted?
will the next xbox be a wii clone?
what you guys opinion like blud?
