So we had great success with this yesterday, things happen.

So trying again tonight at around 10 EST/7PST who can make it?

[Default]

Realize this is a bit late, but I can be there between 7:30 and 8:00 if you guys need someone. Have to attend some dinner thing tonight, but will try my best to get out earlier (that is, if anyone else is able to tonight)

[uber_paddler]

I'll be around yet again.

We tried last night, but it was difficult to find a 4th.

So we're going to aim for Saturday afternoon or so.

It will be another joint podcast effort in which we look at the big 3 press conferences. Touch on some major 3rd party games and what interested us.

Also if possible, would try and get SoccerAnt and/or Uber on the show since both had the chance to attend e3 and go hands on with some games.

And since we're already here.
Next Nerds on the Rocks, will be a review/discussion of Toy Story 3 and Pixar.

Dual Wielding will hopefully be a more in-depth e3 review when Soccer and Uber are back to working capacity.

So who can make it on Sat and what time works best.

[uber_paddler]

Well I'm good to go whenever, so whatever works best for everyone else.

[Default]

I'll be good at least at some point this weekend. Sunday would probably work better, but I'm sure I could manage sometime Saturday if needed

I'm so down for the FMA 'cast if you need an extra someone. I can talk the shit outta that series if necessary (and usually do to nerdy friends who'll put up with it)

Then you'll be happy to know I had you in mind for that episode.

I think as it stands, I had you, Magus, Takesgiantsteps and Uber as the 4 contenders for that episode.

~Edit!~

Had some ideas while walking about town.
An episode focused on toys. The type of toys you grew up playing with. If you still buy em and the likes.
An episode on computers, like what was your first PC and all that fun stuff.
Cartoons (Well several episodes, wanna do one focused on comic book cartoons, video game cartoons, and general cartoons)
Gadgets and gizmos, devices that have caught your eye or that you own or want.

Huzzah! You know me oh too well

Quite like the new podcast ideas, too

[BreakABone]

There is a feedback thread up top/stickied, but I will use that to bookmark all the podcast and feedback after the week is up.

I doubt many people would look in the thread weekly to see if a new episode was added.

Last week was a busy week for the video game nerds as the biggest show of the year came and went. We had exciting announcements of new games and new hardware. We got out first real look at the 3DS, Microsoft’s Kinect and Sony’s PS Move. So this jumble sized convention called for another team-up between the Nerds and our resident Gunslingers. We discuss the big 3’s press conference and which 3rd party made this biggest splash. So grab a drink, sit back and enjoy.

As always feedback is most appreciated.

Felt like it was missing something.
