Despite numerous calls for us to rethink our podcasting career, we just keep on making Fancasts. This week, we drool over the excellence of Portal, rejoice in the 360 confirmation of Project Offset, and discuss the bitter truth of interoffice fanboy bias. It's a show full of serious, pressing issues in the world today. Serious issues pertaining to the Xbox 360 anyway. Well, they are issues at the very least. But eough blather! Git ta downloadin'.

Oh, did we mention that Dustin didn't play Gears of War last week? Because he didn't.

1. Cause he's too busy playin teh Hal0z! I'll listen to this after work and comment tomorrow.

BTW, yesterday I starting playin Hal0z at 12am (CST) for a quicky b4 going to sleep. That quicky turned into hours (approx 4am) cause my teammates and I agreed not to stop playin until we lost a match. Granted, we never lost a match so we had to call it quits!

Well just wanted to share cause I've never seen so many "1st place" in team slayer and that number will prolly change 2nite lol

2. Yes, I love these. Dustin's voice turns to me on every time.

3. Yeah I just knew their would be discussion of Portal. It's just such a well made game and is quite possibly my Game of the Year (and yes I played Halo 3 and Bioshock and enjoyed both of them!) I could only possibly see Mass Effect beating it (and this is quite possible being that I loved GoW and Kotor is one of my all time favorite games)
