InDis - Ep 032 - Terry & Ken in Online vs Print

Monday, June 30th, 2008

What an episode we have for you this week.

As per the usual, we have Distractions for the week. Then on to news.

For our feature we talk about Online vs Print. Former EGM staff Trickman Terry and Ken Williams (Sushi X) join us for the discussion. And quite a discussion it was. We had a great time talking with them and the discussion went on for well over an hour! Thanks to them for being such great guests!

We finish off with New Releases and a brand spanking new Question of the week.

Enough talk, more InDis.

InDis - Ep MGS - MGS4 Spoiler Edition

Thursday, June 26th, 2008

Welcome to our second bonus episode! This episode was actually plucked out of Episode 31 since we started talking about spoilers for MGS4 and just couldn’t stop.  So if you haven’t already listened to Episode 31, go check it out.

So in this bonus episode, we talk about MGS4 on an Act per Act basis.  We go into how we fought bosses, whether we killed or tranqed, that kind of thing.  We also dissect a lot of the cut scenes and go into detail about the ending. So….

If you haven’t played the game yet and are planning on it… DON’T LISTEN yet. This is a MAJOR SPOILER SHOW! If you listen, and we ruin something for you… don’t say we didn’t warn you… we did… several times!

InDis - Ep 031 - The awesomeness: MGS4!

Tuesday, June 24th, 2008

We’re a day late. Sorry. But we had our reasons.

Turned out that not all of us had beaten MGS4 by the time Thursday came around, so we ended up recording on Sunday… late Sunday. Too late to edit for Monday morning.

Then, turned out that our show ended up being 3 hours long! Way too long. So what we ended up doing is pulling out the “spoiler filled” portion of our feature and we’re going to make another special episode out of it. Funny thing is that it will end up longer than this episode. Wow… we really liked this damn game. So expect to see that in the next couple of days.

So, with that said, we have Distractions, News, MGS4 overview, a really fast new release list and email segment. And then… a very exciting announcement for our question of the week.

So here we go.

InDis - Ep 030 - OMGWTFMGS!

Monday, June 16th, 2008

The big 3-0.

This week we talk about our distractions. All including MGS in some way, shape, or form. Not to mention more Phantasy Star talk! Don’t worry, we pretty much just say… “hey we played it” and that’s it.

Then on to news, not much going on that’s … interesting really.

After the break… OMGWTFMGS like crazy-go-nuts! We talk about the things we remember about Metal Gear in general and how much we love the freakin’ series!

Followed up with New Releases… which doesn’t have much on it that’s interesting. Then an email or two and on to the question of the week.

All of this and more (ok not more) as we turn the big 3-0!

Enjoy.

MGS4 Midnight Launch!

Thursday, June 12th, 2008

Being the rabid fans that Chris and I are, we decided to hit up our local Gamestop’s Midnight Release for MGS4. Well, that and I don’t know that we trusted GS to NOT sell our Collector’s Edition preorders. ;)

The pics we were able to take are deceptive… there were a lot more people that eventually showed up as the clock ticked down.

Overall, we had a blast. It was great meeting new people and hanging out with other MGS fans.

OH! And, obviously, we were also there to get some audio for our MGS Memories feature on tonight’s show.

Stay Tuned! :D
