New Track, New What To Listen For

New track on the myspace is out and expect a video for it soon. Its all about Fox News and their brilliant coverage of Mass Effect. Now if you like the song then make sure you tell everyone to go listen to it. If you hate the song then make sure you tell everyone to go listen to it to so you can find out you are wrong. So you are lucky enough to be the first to listen because for some reason you check my blog and yet never comment on it. Track is called Wikimedia!

You can also hear me on the Bobby Blackwolf Show. I go on and vent on Fox news and flying knee strikes are involved. I also talk about someone who didn’t get enough credit for saving someone’s life because they learned it from a game. Finally I end with a discussion on the main topic of the night which is what could be the cause and effect of completely realistic visuals and violence.

What To Listen For

I had a busy 2 weeks with appearances on several podcast and one big surprise I’ll talk about in a second.

Bobby Blackwolf Show

Weekly, Sundays, 8PM

Download Link: http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/BobbyBlackwolfShow/~3/221234159/BWShow011308-012008.mp3

DESCRIPTION: An awesome podcast that gives the listener to not only listen live, but also participate in making the show great. I often call in to discuss the big topics of the week or a philosophy or point of view on gaming I think is worthy of discussion. If you are too shy to call in there is always the chat room to keep you busy and chatting with other listeners who voice their opinion on the various topics.

EPISODE: In this double sized super show I call in to talk about Street Fighter 4 and various other fighters as well as a call talking about the conversations gamers have with each other and what someone personally looks for when deciding why a game is great.

You can listen for me near the 34:00-47:00 and 1:33:00-1:44:00 mark.

Chatterbox Video Game Show

Weekly, Tuesdays, 11PM

Link: http://ripple.radiotail.com/1007/Show208_01-22-2008.mp3

DESCRIPTION: Not only is the show live, but it is also broadcast on the radio in Arizona. The hosts Alon (game fan), Ara (game designer), and Rich (student game designer) are a smart and diverse group whose show feels painfully short only because you love hearing their point of view on the industry and game design. I rarely call into the show (I still call the most) and when I do I am greeted with open arms (unless I disagree). They also have a live chat room so that you can discuss the topic and Rich is often in there relaying the information and opinions to the other hosts.

EPISODE: This two part segment talks about why we play games and what motivates us. I call in and talk about games as a challenge and the side effects of a frustrated gamer.

You can listen for me near the 21:00-40:00 mark.

Cagcast

Weekly, Fridays

Link: http://media.libsyn.com/media/cheapyd/cagcast104.mp3

DESCRIPTION: A great podcast that takes a look at not only the news of the week, but any great deals on games that can be found. It’s hosted by Cheapy D from Japan and Wombat from New York with discussions from both sides of the gaming hemispheres. Unlike most podcast its very personal and you will get to know (and learn to love) the two hosts of the show.

EPISODE: This is such a cool moment that I won’t even spoil it for you. Simply take a quick listen for not only one of the coolest things that ever, but something that even amazed me as I listened.

You can listen for me near the 19:40-28:00 and 2:01:00-2:04:00 mark.

Blowing Up

"I'm like a man smoking at a gas station... I'm about to blow up!" - Martin Lawrence, Martin TV Show

In a little over a week my video on YouTube has had over 10,000 views which is more then I ever imagined. I put a lot of work into the song and am shocked by the response I've received. The best part being the various journalists that saw the video.

I got a personal message from Kyle Orland (youtube comments) who was the person that broke the news on Joystiq. That was crazy enough, but it turns out he also use to go to my high school and essentially lived in the same area I do today. I also got a personal message from the man himself Jeff Gerstmann saying that he liked the song (check myspace comments). That to me would have been enough... but it gets better.

One journalist by the name of Sam Kennedy not only puts my video in his blog post, but has written an incredible article about the situation. If at all interested I strongly suggest you check out his post. Its long, but after you finished reading it you'll be glad you now have deeper insight about the subject matter and how it effects all gaming media.

Once again thanks to everyone that helped make the video a hit and expect more to come.

New Track Debut!!!

http://media.putfile.com/PEN-15---Cheap-As-Shit

Brand new track about the toughest game boss you could ever face. Spread the love and the link to this blog post.

Video coming soon as well as part 2 to this track.



Lyrics:

(Verse 1 Boss)

You think you gonna win against me I’m the fuckin boss.

Only thing I’m giving players is another loss.

You can upgrade everything no matter the cost.

But in the end I know controllers gonna get tossed.

The game designer wanted you to yell god damn it.

You ain’t gonna beat me cuz I’m fuckin god damn it.

You get so aggro (aggro) you kicked yourSsega.

Dreamcast HP scan shows I’m alpha omega.

When you fightin me you’ll think I’m so gay.

You reach the end, but you’ll never beat the whole game.

My health regains, even as I fight. (fade in)

Immune to darkness and light, no strategies are right.

Gonna have you crying cheapness for a hundred nights.

I fuckin blew your mind, took out all your 100 lives.

(Verse 2 Player)

It makes me yell shit, I’m getting fuckin mean.

Even when I sleep the cheapness haunts my dreams.

Just getting to the final boss gave me Nintendo thumb.

Especially since he does infinite unlimited damage plus one.

Guns and swords in the tons I should have no hard feelins.

It wasn’t meant to be defeated by any man livin.

Heard what I said bitch, no fucking man livin.

Women or children in all humanity’s existence.

Tomnobu Itagaki and Tokuro Fujiwara.

Call me up screaming about the same damn boss encounter.

We strategize how to create an instant death counter.

Use to be four of us till the suicide of Sam Houser.

Drinking coke, fingers numb from so many button presses.

We say we’ll never play again, but we never learn our lesson.

Fuck! I keep on struggling.

Despite knowing that finishing this game is fucking dumb as shit.

(Verse 3 Boss)

Power level 99, attack level 99

Weapon strength 99, number of lives 99.

Take no rest at yo best the times you die is 99.

Been trying to finishing this game since 1999.

You can’t beat any version of me on a game station.

Back tracked and learned the attack instant teleportation.

GameFAQs was enough for my first form’s elimination.

The last save spot you had is still your final destination.

Zen like meditation for ultimate concentration.

Can’t believe you found a way to beat my 2^nd tranformation.

Critical hit (critical hit)

Slow mo (slow mo)

Final blow (final blow)

Now my third form (third form)

E3 Week - Complaints and Grievances

Bitching and Moaning is more like it. I get all upset and worked up over CG trailers. And we talk about games that not only look bland, but the gameplay matches it. We also go into the dark side of mods for games and conclude that humanity is evil when given a chance. Time to play the game!

E3 Week - Sony Press Conference

We argue about the Sony Conference in depth. From presentation to CG animation we hit every point and some that don’t even apply. Discussion on how Sony is failing at applying a Nintendo style marketing and suffer intense fear at Chewbacca’s appearance. Poor DILDO is forced to admit things about Sony that breaks his heart relating to Resistance: Fall of Man and MGS4’s presentation. We also talk about the “buzz” (obvious reference to another Mario Bee suit segment) at the conference about money, PSPs, Pachter, consumers, and language barriers.
