TenTonHammer.com - Taking MMO Gamers to the Next Level!

After quite a long hiatus, RadarX and Coyote return to the Game Over podcast with even less refinement or class than ever before. This week they invite Brasse back to discuss the MMO game on everyones mind, Funcom's Age of Conan. Covering various aspects including nudity, violence, combat systems, crafting, and more these three debate exactly where this game fits in the modern gaming market and what we can expect in the future.

Quote:

RadarX: Let's start out with the "mature" content because I'm sure Coyote has plenty to say...

Coyote: Yeah I've got all my filters turned off. I don't need to see any of that glitz and glamour in a videogame.

Brasse: Riiiiight.

Coyote: *giggle* Big boobies. Nipples... Nipples in a videogame! They got my letters!

In a special Game Over, Coyote and RadarX welcome their first guest, Brasse from thebrasse.com. An avid roleplayer and well known industry writer she brings intelligent points and trades pokes with Coyote. With insight and humor, she'll bring an entertaining performance you won't want to miss.

Lore - Most games have a amazing story with deep characters and a dramatic plot to draw people in. Coyote and Brasse discuss the finer points of why this essential and RadarX talks like the Sims.

Roleplaying - To many roleplaying is an enigmatic pass time only practiced by the unusual, but to others it's a play style. While Coyote and Brasse share their roleplaying experiences, RadarX talks about how they fit into the modern market.

GTA IV - It's all everyone talked about recently, but what is with the hype surrounding it? Brasse gets her hands on a copy and and discusses the series with RadarX and Coyote including the game engine and character development

Quote:

Brasse: I can honestly say that has never happened to me Coyote.

RadarX: Coyote is special.

Coyote: I'm SPECIAL!

Brasse: *laugh* You are special. You bring out the worst in everyone.

Geektopia

This week Coyote and RadarX take on a "bevy" of topics sure to appeal to any geek or mildly deranged person. Tune in for a look at upcoming industry events and a few very interesting games still in the development process. The Topics this week are as follows:

SOE Fan Faire 2008 - SOE has announced their 2008 Fan Faire coming soon to a casino near you. Why should you think about attending? RadarX explains what you can expect while Coyote regrets how much alcohol can be found in Las Vegas.

Science Fiction MMO Games - Does science fiction have a deciding role in the MMO game industry? A discussion covering why Star Trek would be a huge game is only overshadowed by the fact that Coyote still won't play the Matrix Online.

Fallout 3 - Fans of the classic series won't have to wait much longer for the release of this highly anticipated game. RadarX contains his excitement while Coyote promises to carry a Vaultec lunchbox to work every single day.

Mortal Kombat vs DC - Yes you are reading this correctly, Mortal Kombat vs DC. No longer satisfied with averting apocalypse, Sub Zero and friends are taking on Batman and a number of other superheroes. Why? We don't know either but an explanation is attempted.

Quote:

Coyote: What I can tell you about Fallout is it's violence and dark humor. It's fun. It's just one of those games that reeks of fun.

RadarX: Mutants, ghouls, machine guns, rocket launchers...

Coyote: Smiley faces!

Forums and Short Wii's

This week Coyote and RadarX cover the usual battery of MMO game and geek related things in a disturbing way. Join them for a wide range of discussions from the antics of an anti-video game lawyer to the console shortages. Their topics are as follows:

Jack Thompson - Is there really anything left to say about him other than he's lost it? Apparently there is because Coyote breaks down his recent Bar trial and shows why we may not be hearing from him any time soon.

Official Forums - Do MMO games really need official forums where subscribers can hang out and complain/find information? Discussion ensues regarding their purpose and how much of a forum presence a company really needs.

Wii Shortage - Coyote and RadarX go console this week and discuss exactly where the Nintendo Wii shortage might be coming from. Rumors, investment analysts, and conspiracy all results in one thing. Neither of them can find a Wii to buy anywhere.

Charlton Heston - A legend passed recently and if you are a geek there is more of a link than you might believe to Heston. Coyote makes dirty ape jokes while RadarX mourns the loss of a great actor and major gun advocate.

Quotes:

RadarX: And our third topic for the evening...
Coyote: Radar's really short Wii!
RadarX:: No no no...we are talking about the Nintendo Wii.

Be sure to listen to the end for out takes.

Podcast 15: MMO Games and Enhancement Drugs

After a lengthy hiatus, Game Over is back and while we'd like to say better than ever, it's just Coyote and RadarX. Join on us a very special Sony Online Entertainment edition where almost all our discussion involves news surrounding them. Our topics are as follows:

Vivox - Most would agree that in game voice chat is a wonderful conception and Vivox has proven to be quite a robust product in EVE Online. Will the same be true for SOE's products? Is giving Coyote the power to change his voice a feature or a threat to mankind?

Live Gamer - Hitting the EverQuest Station Exchange servers soon, Live Gamer promises to be a legalized and secure third party application for real money trade. Coyote and RadarX take this opportunity to remind people that not only does illegal RMT make you a cheater but a Communist.

Free Realms - This whimsical game from SOE promises to cater to a market rarely pursued, the young teenager. Will this tear kids away from their Nintendo DS's and Webkinz? Coyote describes his experience seeing this game and why RMT will work in it.

Street Fighter the Movie - While we almost made an entire podcast without a non-MMO game topic, the announcement of this movies progress was just too tragic to ignore. With the first movie being such a disaster, why would they make another?

Quotes:

Coyote: And remember kids, if you buy plat you get exactly what you deserve. A stolen credit card you [edited].
RadarX: And you are supporting Communism
Coyote: And your rocking out with the devil... in a bad way.

Be sure to listen to the end for out takes.
