DorkCast Episode 6: You Had Me At Halo

GamerDork!

It’s a little less shouty over here at DorkCast HQ, which is probably a good thing for ALL of our sanities. There’s still plenty to talk about this week, as we get shocked by terrible gaming secrets, do a lot of Etsy shopping (mostly in the outtakes, thankfully), and talk about Halo. Lots and lots of Halo.

Seriously. I hope you like Halo, guys. Obviously, we do!

DorkCast Episode 5: 50 Shades of Cannibalism

GamerDork!

I… just…. there are no words for this week’s show. Well, that’s not true, actually. There are LOTS of words, and we say many of them in this super-sized podcast of goodness! We wouldn’t want to spoil the surprises in store for you completely, but let’s just say that the title is NOT a lie.

If, for whatever reason, you do not want to listen to us bashing the crap out of 50 Shades of Grey, we still love you and will not judge you. Also, you should probably skip from 42:24 to the second break, around 1:23:21 (we got a little carried away…and by we, I mostly mean Sharon).

DorkCast Episode 4: SPOOOOOOKY!

GamerDork!

With Halloween coming up very soon, we decided to give ourselves and everyone else a good scare by attempting our very first themed episode! So, this week, we’re all about spoooooky games, books, and films. Let us know if you like the format, and if you do, we might just try it again soon!

Please note: There are TWO spoiler sections in this show (neither of which Matt was allowed to listen to). If you haven’t played The Walking Dead through episode 4, those spoilers are from 2:15 to 34:42 (we got a little excited about that), and if you haven’t seen Cabin in the Woods, skip over 1:28:37 to 1:43:20. Then go play/watch the relevant stuff and come back. Trust us!

DorkCast Episode 3: Quarantine

GamerDork!

Don’t get too close this week. Seriously. We’re all suffering from convention plague to varying degrees, which explains a few things, like why the show is a few days late, and why we all sound a bit like we’ve been trying to gargle sandpaper. It was worth it, though! We think so, anyway. See if you agree as we chat about our time at Eurogamer Expo, our shameful graphic novel neglect, and our potential relationships with fictional characters.

And seriously, use hand sanitizer after this one. Yeah.

As the final battle nears a sacrifice is required.

Dorkcast Episode 2: We Just Blue Ourselves

GamerDork!

People seemed to be okay with the idea of us putting out a show, so we thought, what the heck? Let’s try another one! You’ll have to let us know how it goes.

This week, come along as we start drawing up plans to put a meth lab in our brand-new Skyrim house! Er… actually, I may be mixing up my entertainments a bit. It’s something like that, though.

Apparel of Choice

 

As the latest in a long line of heroes, the one now tasked with saving the universe from an eternal threat or vanquish the fire breathing recently unleashed foe demons, the main question is simple and often extremely important; what the hell are you going to wear? Do you go stylish, with extra touches to really bring out that sparkle in your eyes or more macho, to exemplify that sensation of dark brooding hatred festering inside you?

DorkThrough – Asura’s Wrath: Chapter Twenty

As Asura is out cold Yasha holds off the impeding demonic army.

Soundshapes

 

The hardest question to wrestle with in Soundshapes is how much the experience of a game can derive pleasure when the actual playing is so simplistic as to become almost invisible. Because in truth the reason to play this title is not because it has amazing gameplay, in many ways that particular aspect is the weakest point, but for the sonic experience and journey it provides to the player through each level. Is this in itself enough to make it a worthwhile purchase, does it do enough to massage the simplistic mechanics into something more?
