Ryan’s gone missing, Square Enix is buying Eidos,, Midway is filing for Chapter 11 — and there are zombies everywhere. Dan and Francesca try to hold down the fort and answer some reader questions about the ESRB and light gun games on the 360. Also, Fran gets giddy at the mention of The Shins, and Dan eats pancakes live on the air.
[Update from the Q&A portion of the show: Jellycar is actually a free download on both iPhone and PC (not a paid iPhone app as we said on the show). The reason it’s not out for 360 is that you cannot give away Community Games, and the program’s creator really felt strongly about it being a free app. So until that policy changes, no Xbox 360 versionhttp://dl.oxmonline.com/oxmp_152_20090212.mp3.]
With Dan braving the Great White North this week, Ryan is left solo, but there’s plenty to talk about. Find out how you can get Resident Evil 5 for free (um, sort of…), what two bloody action titles will be dropping on the same day in April, and the apparent sad fate of a promising RPG. In the KOXM Voice Mailbox, Bethesda details how the increase in level cap for the upcoming Fallout 3 DLC will work, Ryan raves about the GTA IV DLC, and more. http://www.oxmpodcast.com/?p=183

Halo Wars is finally here — and we’ve got Dave Pottinger, lead designer on Halo Wars for Ensemble and now at Robot Entertainment, to go into great, gory details on how the game came to life, not to mention how the now-dissolved development team is moving on. Plus, we play catch-up on contests, dive into some Beatles Rock Band theories, and the listening audience gets their first chance to Stick It To The Dan! http://dl.oxmonline.com/oxmp_155_20090305.mp3

A slow news week can’t put a damper on our fun, as the news items are few and far between, but the phone calls in the KOXM Voice Mailbox provoke interesting discussion, and our new contest — “Stick it to the Dan!” — proves to be a resounding success. http://dl.oxmonline.com/oxmp_156_20090312.mp3

We were going for Rage Against the Machine, not *** against the prison shower. After two years of doing it, I simply found myself in dire straits to come up with something interesting. I still naturally collect trivia, and if Stick It doesn't work out I'm be happy to switch back. But if and when we do, I just need some time to recharge first.
After a one-week hiatus, we’re back with a HUGE show! With the Game Developers’ Conference dominating the week, we’ve got plenty of news to discuss, as well as an awesome 30-minute interview with the co-founders and co-badasses of BioWare, Drs. Ray Muzyka and Greg Zeschuk. We talk about Dragon Age: Origins, Mass Effect 2, their thoughts on Bethesda, selling to EA, whether they own all of Canada now, and much, much more. Tune in!

It finally showed up and downloaded after opening iTunes 5 times.

With nothing but empty bottles and puke-stained floors left in the wake of GDC, we’re pretty much left to entertain ourselves. Luckily, we bumped into Telltale Games creative director Dave Grossman — an adventure gaming legend who had a hand in Monkey Island, Day of the Tentacle, and Full Throttle, among others — who talks to us about adventure gaming’s imminent debut on Xbox Live Arcade with Wallace & Gromit and Sam & Max. Oh, and you might want to stay tuned after the outro song for what amounts to a free second show… http://dl.oxmonline.com/oxmp_158_20090402.mp3 <---Right click and save target as
We rummage through our moving boxes for our podcasting equipment this week, but find our microphones in time to deliver a podcast full of bad meat-related double entendres and jokes about small Minnesota towns. Join us for a random KOXM Voice Mailbox, watch Dan buckle under the pressure of new hit segment “Stick it to the Dan,” and more hijinks. http://dl.oxmonline.com/oxmp_159_20090409.mp3 <------Right click and save target as if you do not use Itunes or Zune
