All Things Good And Nerdy

This week sees the premiere of All Things Good And Nerdy Episode 010 - We're Binary Now.  We're the best podcast that no one is listening to!

This week we began the process of streamlining and improving the podcast.  This was done by introducing some new bits that will recur weekly.  The show began with the news of the week presented by the panel.  The news items were:

Naki - Details on the Xbox 720 have leaked and hit the web.

Chris - Microsoft Unveils the Surface Tablet.

Adahy - Why EA Sucks

While these items were considered the major news that wasn't what all of the discussion was devoted to.  This week there was a lot of discussion over the controversy regarding Lara Croft in the new Tomb Raider game.  The panel covered topics concerning video gaming, movies, TV, comics, and even books.  It was a packed episode and we even went a little over for you.

That wasn't everything we talked about but its the highlights of the show.  The panel this week consisted of:

The Adahy - www.twitch.tv/theadahygaming or @TheAdahy

Chris - www.nerdsoftheroundtable.com or @RoundTableNerds

Naki - www.onenerdycupcake.wordpress.com or @1nerdycupcake

This week also featured special guest host Karlyn, @karlyn_darlin.

Thanks to Karlyn for guest hosting, we really appreciate it!

It was a fun panel this week.  Next week everyone should be back and we'll have another guest host.  Remember if you're interested in guest hosting let us know!

This week sees the premiere of All Things Good And Nerdy Episode 009 - Shut Up EA Will Hear You!  We're the best podcast that no one is listening to!  Want to know where the episode title came from?  I guess you better tune into the podcast!

This week we continued with our E3 wrap up.  The first half of the show was dedicated to discussing E3 revelations and impressions.  To start off was the news of Microsoft's  Smart Glass app for tablets and smartphones.  On top of that was the announcement from Microsoft that the Xbox 360 should have a life through 2014.

Other gaming topics included Final Fantasy VII coming to the PS Vita and Apple stating they would not be entering the console gaming arena.  We also learned early this morning that some League of Legends servers were hacked potentially compromising PII.  If you play, make sure your info is safe and change your passwords!

Probably the most fun part was giving Adahy a chance to respond to the EA and Valve confrontation over price cuts.  His opinion is well worth hearing and I won't spoil it.

Before moving into the movie and TV show topics we discussed the fact there are still 'zombie-like' episodes occurring throughout the world.  Its freaky as all hell!

There was a lot of news about upcoming movies.  The Dark Knight Rises has a runtime announced and DC has announced they have greenlit more superhero movies.  The question is, are these the smart movie choices?  There was also a discussion on the new Pixar movie Wreck it Ralph.

This week we present you with a special E3 mini-episode.  The panel took the time to do a quick run through of E3 and talked about the highs and lows of the show.  The common consensus is that this year E3 was kind of boring.

This week sees the premiere of All Things Good And Nerdy Episode 007 - Show Us Your Kitty.  Want to know where the episode title came from?  I guess you better tune into the podcast!

The panel was all over this week in their discussion and a variety of topics were touched upon.    The big news first was the discussion of E3 taking place next week.  The panel took the time to make their predictions about what would come out of E3.  Some predictions were crazier than others.  It was also interesting to note that many game announcements had leaked already.  Most notable God of War 4 and a new Gears of War game.

The panel also discussed DC Comics announcement that Alan Scott was coming out of the closet.  From there The Dark Knight Rises was discussed, specifically the tiny hope that Chris Nolan and Christian Bale might make another Batman film.

It was also observed that zombies appear to be eating people in real life and this is all because of bath salts.  Sounds like it might be time to prepare for the Zombie apocalypse.

To wrap the show possible Iron Man 3 spoilers were discussed so be careful.  To be honest this was a fun and crazy show and the panel was all over the map.  It was a lot of fun!

If you only remember one thing from this week's episode, remember that some people just want to cut you.

This week sees the premiere of All Things Good And Nerdy Episode 006 - We Play For Keeps.  Want to know where the episode title came from?  I guess you better tune into the podcast!

The panel was all over this week in their discussion and a variety of topics were touched upon.  The show started with the panel addressing the current trend of zero-day DLC and how many companies seem to be embracing this plan in an effort to squeeze a few more dollars out of gamers.  Next up was a discussion of how big comic companies like Marvel and DC have announced upcoming stories revolving around gay characters.  The common consensus is this seems like a cash grab.  If a character is gay that's great, but the companies should focus on telling good stories not publicity.

Next up was a quick review of Men In Black 3 as most of the panel had seen the movie. The consensus was that MIB 3 is a fun summer movie and its worth checking out.  However, its no Avengers.  Continuing the movie trend, the panel took time to make fun of Battleship and its lack of box office success.  Finally, the panel discussed Prometheus and expressed some worries as to how good the movie will be.

To wrap the show up, the panel moved in to talking about video games.  Some of the topics included a rumored Star Fox and Metroid combined game, the current list of games that will be displayed at E3, the record sales of Minecraft, and a conversation on indie game bundles.  Two sites were directly referenced, they were:

Indie Gala - http://www.indiegala.com/#

This week sees the premiere of All Things Good And Nerdy Episode 005 - OP'd and Nerfed.  Want to know where the episode title came from?  I guess you better tune into the podcast!

The big news this week is the release of Diablo 3.  Since Chris and Naki have suck computers The Adahy was the only one to play while the rest of us drooled over the game in the livestream.  The panel also discussed the details about The Avengers blu-ray release and massive amount of deleted scenes on the disc.  Of course this then degenerated into a conversation about comic book movies.  The panel took the time to take a shot at Green Lantern and mention that not all comic book movies have to be dark.  It may work for Batman, but not really for Superman.

Moving on, the panel discussed Community and the greatness that was the 16-bit episode.  After a discussion about Dan Harmon's situation with the show we moved on to the Big Bang Theory and how the show might actually be hurting nerd culture.

The show wrapped by moving back into gaming.  Topics included Kickstarter and how that service is helping create games and then of course the latest news from Blizzard.  Finally, the panel discussed the rumor that a Lego Lord of the Rings game is coming soon.

This week sees the premiere of All Things Good And Nerdy Episode 004 - Its A Trap!  Want to know where the episode title came from?  I guess you better tune into the podcast!

Fair warning to everyone, The Avengers are discussed again, and there will be spoilers.  This movie is far too good to pass up talking about!

The other topics this week included an update on the status of Star Wars: The Old Republic and its declining users, the rise of casual gaming and its impact on Nintendo and Sony, Zynga potentially suing to trademark the usage of 'ville', the announcement of Axe Cop the cartoon, the death of traditional TV viewing and the rise of the streaming movement, rumors about a Steam console, and making fun of the long delayed Starcraft Ghost.  Also, there was a conversation about The Avengers and if that movie had made The Dark Knight Rises less exciting.  The group thinks the movie will be good, but it will be a tough fight against The Avengers.  Finally, there was a spirited debate about Maxim's Gamergirl contest and whether this reinforces poor stereotypes.  This topic will be back, we promise that!

This week sees the premiere of All Things Good And Nerdy Episode 003 - That's So Appalachia.  Want to know where the episode title came from?  I guess you better tune into the podcast!

This week we had a few technical difficulties that shortened the podcast.  But that didn't stop us from discussing a variety of topics.  If you saw the Avengers you are in luck because we will discuss it.  If you haven't seen the movie yet all the Avengers coverage is at the end and we clearly state when the spoiler discussion will start.  So you're safe to listen in until then.

The other topics this week included the Elder Scrolls Online, specifically whether it is a good idea, the PS Vita's sagging sales, the soon to release Diablo 3, the hate of Battleship the Movie, and how The Expendables 2 is a movie designed to appeal to men.  Also, we spoke about the new Madden announcers, and the addition of multiplayer to the God of War franchise.  To wrap up the non spoiler discussions the panel went over the latest trailer for The Dark Knight Rises and talked about the growing readership of digital comics.  After that it was time for the Avengers!
