April 07, 2010GameHounds Episode 105: Go To the Light
Hey! Two weeks and two episodes?! Why, this isn't the GameHounds we know!

OUR GameHounds takes two weeks off, then uploads an overly long episode and then disappears again.

Yes, this is *your* GameHounds. And yes, we are back on a normal schedule. Sort of.

Starting this episode, we will be a mid-week show, debuting each Wednesday. No more long weekend nights putting together the show for your pleasure. N0w it's long weekday nights.

This week, GamerEdie Sellers, Holy Goalie and Cooper Hawkes bask in the PAX East afterglow. And they talk about news, including:
Sega closes its San Francisco office in a hurry.

A man old enough to know better tries to steal a copy of Breach from the PAX show floor and finds himself in jail and looking at big fine and prison term. Douchbag.

More PAX news.

God of War 3, Geometry Wars, 2k Sports, Xbox USB and hard drives, Battlefield: Bad Company 2 news.

Check out the 8-bit version of Dark Side of the Moon.
Enjoy.

April 01, 2010Episode 104: The Big Effing PAX Show
That took a whole lot more time than I thought.

We knew it would be a big show, but only when we strung together all the audio did we realize we were cresting two and a half hours of content!

PAX East was amazing! And full of great games and things to see. In this episode, we take you on the floor and into the halls of PAX to hear a whole buncha-buncha interviews with developers and peripheral representatives. Edie, Hawkes and Goalie offer their opinions on what they saw as well.

What titles, you ask? Well, check this out:
Turtle Beach headsets

Crackdown 2

Split Second

Alienware computers

Playswitch (our sponsor — who we didn't even know would be there)

HydroThunder Hurricane

March 18, 2010GameHounds Episode 103: Richard Simmons is the Voice of Natal
He is! We swear. Richard Simmons is the voice of NATAL!! You read it here first. Tell all your friends. Blog the heck out of it.

But first, listen to the show.

On this show, Cooper Hawkes, Holy Goalie and Edie Sellers give you the latest dirt and dish in the gaming industry, including:
Sony officially announces the Sony Move -- or as we call it, The Motion Controller Formerly Known as the Sony Motion Controller.

Tiger Woods 11 and SOCOM 4 will be compatible with the Move, but not Natal. Whoa!

More random stuff than you can imagine!
Enjoy.

March 04, 2010GameHounds Episode 101: Pigs In a Blanket
Oh my god, you guys! I'm so sorry!

I got so distracted by the tons of crap going on in my real life that I totally spaced and forgot to post the GameHounds episode. I uploaded it to the server, and then I forgot to actually post it!

So, this week, we were Hawkesless. Edie Sellers and Holy Goalie pick up the pace with a full week of gaming news, including:
Nintendo officially debuts the DSi XL with a pricetag of $190. Wow.

Sonic fanboys are calling for a boycott of Sonic 4 by buying old copies of Sonic 1 on Sonic 4's release date. No really. Stop laughing.

Random stuff, emails, fun, and of course, the Kracken.
Enjoy.

February 25, 2010 The Final Humpdate
It's a sad day for the GameHounds gang.

This latest Humpdate, for February 24, 2010, will be the final Humpdate.

It's been a laborious thing making two shows a week, and we've enjoyed every minute of it. But it was a labor of love that we wouldn't change a bit.
If you think about all the amazing things that the Humpdate has been, it's a bit mindboggling. After starting out as a two-man show, it became a variety podcast and it brought you some amazing voices — from ThatOneGuy Ry and the Digital Cowboys to the recent crowd, including The Rumble Pack.

We're sorry to see it go, but we know that it will only strengthen the GameHounds regular podcasts, because now we'll have more time to make them and give you the best — which is what you deserve.

In this last episode, the SportsHound WillG talks about how a recent lawsuit against Electronic Arts may affect sports games in the future, Holy Goalie offers his thoughts on in-game advertising, and The Rumble Pack interview Jim Zubcovich, project manager for Udon Entertainment.

Enjoy.

February 22, 2010GameHounds Episode 99: Release the Rectal Thermometer
It's a new day on GameHounds.

This week, Holy Goalie debuts as a permanent host of the show. Which is very much like when he subbed in. But it's still awesome.

Goalie, Edie Sellers and Cooper Hawkes talk up the gaming news of the week, including:
MTV reports that Bioshock is causing problems for those with colorblindness. Wanna see what that looks like?

Red Octane closed by Activision, as is Underground Development.

Sony says that there may be a looming Playstation 3 shortage. Yeaaah. Riiiight.

Assassin's Creed II's DRM is makes Machiavelli say, "That's cold, dude."

Random stuff, and stuff... and stuff.

Most importantly: The Mass Effect rap is titled "Those Minerals," and it was written and performed by Kabuto The Python. The MP3 can be downloaded here.
Enjoy.

February 15, 2010GameHounds Episode 98: Let's Drop Some X10!

This week, Edie, Cooper Hawkes and Commander Tim chat about:
More Mass Effect 2 analysis.

Bioshock 2 for both the PS3 and the Xbox 360.

Random stuff and emails.

February 08, 2010GameHounds Episode 97: Mass Effective
Yes, you've waited two weeks to find out what the GameHounds think of Mass Effect 2. The waiting is now over!

This week, Cooper Hawkes, Commander Tim and Edie Sellers tongue-kiss the latest and greatest exploits of Commander Sheppard, as well as get down and dirty with the lastest news of the gaming world.

This week's topics include:
Microsoft announces that it will end Xbox Live for Xbox 1 games and consoles on April 15. The king is dead, long live the king.

A Sony big-wig finally says the fateful words: PSN will be a paid-for service at some point. Will it be an upgrade? What will it cost? That they're not saying.

Green Man Gaming execs explain more about how the service will be able to buy used digital downloads back from consumers. Of course, they don't explain everything.

Random stuff, emails, voice mails, thank yous and the rest of the gang.
