    Anyone that isn't a fan of badly pronounced Japanese, well the next podcast isn't for you.

    Here's another call out for guests and very special guests for this weeks podcast. We'll be recording at 2 pm on saturday.

    We have two suggested topics. The first is Lucasarts point and click adventures. We would love to have some one on that can talk about these games because at the moment Dinorex knows a lot about them but I haven't really got much experience of them.

    If we can't find anyone for the point and click one or we might even record two podcasts then we're going to do a Horror Hotpot! I thought that I talked way too much in the last Hudson podcast so thought this was a good idea. Basically you can talk about any horror game you want on the show. The only stipulation is that it's not a Resident Evil or Silent Hill game, although obscure spin offs will be allowed. Those two series will probably get their own show.

    I thought that this would be a good idea since it doesn't tie the show to one topic and will open it up to more people to get involved.

    Anyway we'd love to have more people on and all feedback is welcome!

    If anyone needs a lift to the station I'll be picking up Sarah in the city centre and can bring people to the station and if you offer me chocolate I might even drive you back.

    The Gregory Horror Show might get a mention? Dinorex and Sera are very knowledgeable on that game. :)

    Hahaha so I was. Was a fun game to watch you play nonetheless, especially when you'd turn around and the nurse with the needle was standing there! :eek:

    The SOPA protest is at 13.00, I wouldn't mind getting a bit of that beforehand.

    You want a lift to it or just want to start later?

    Had laryngitis last week , the daughters birthday is this week so in the middle of organizing stuff for a big party.
    Plus I managed to take a lump out of my index finger last night while cutting some stuff up so my gaming will need to be one handed for the next few days (Fnnar!)


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,056 ✭✭✭Sparks43

    Headaches and work have gotten in the way. Catching up on editing now so may have it done in a little bit.
