Hailing Frequency - Star Trek Gaming Podcast 'The Internets Only Podcast Dedicated to Star Trek Gaming'

Hailing Frequency 44 has arrived - sorry it is a day late folks, my internet died yesterday and only just came back on.

Quite a short show for you this week as there has not been a whole lot going on, but as always we have strived to bring you a quality production.

K'suan'indra brings us a roundup of all the latest star trek gaming news, and Juliano brings us another great and informative edition of the STO-Zone.

Additionally, we get an exclusive look at the Enterprise Temporal Cold War internal Beta - Check out the hyper-cool screenshots and video file below!

Croesus is on shore leave this week to Delta IV, visiting a luxury deltan spa, so unfortunatly we have no Mod Weekly this time round.

Good Morning, Good Afternoon and Good Evening Trek Gamers,

Please ensure your seats are in their upright and locked position and prepare for a ride - Hailing Frequency 43 is here.

In this episode, we return to normal programming for the first time in 2008 - and you may notice some changes. While the overall feel and format of the show has not changed - we have attempted to further promote the idea and feel that Hailing Frequency is broadcast from a ship - the UFP Devilfish - this is something we have always attempted to convey with varying success. One large step we have taken towards this is the implementation of an "in character" scene at the begining and end of each show lasting no more than a minute each - i think you will find them pleasing!

In an attempt to improve audio quality ever further this year, we have begun using a new method of recording - i think you will all notice the higher clarity and quality!

And now - Kickstarting things this show we have the Star Trek Gaming News from the ever popular and super sexy K'suan'indra.

Following on from the news, we talk about the recently announced bombshell that has affected trek gamers worldwide - Perpetual Entertainment has ceased development on Star Trek Online. We gauge the communitys response too this terrible news and we are later joined by Chris "ChessMess" Koerner of Star Trek Games, Victor "1st" Mullin of Star Trek Gamers, and for the first time ever on Hailing Frequency - the world famous Star Trek Writer Derek Chester.

Mod Weekly returns in this show where we hear about a new mod for Bridge Commander by DJ Kurtis - and on the first fleet radio of 2008 - we here the musical genius Arthur Yoria with "Something Must be Wrong".

Ever heard of KingWorld? Hailing Frequency reveals details of an investigation into the rumours about a new high budget star trek game in 2008 - we left no leaf unturned in our search for information in our attempts to confirm or debunk these rumours.

Lastly - we have STO-Zone episode eleven - with a twist - it seems that we have accidently recieved a transmission from an alternate universe, and the STO Zone has become...."The Alter Ego Show!"

Hailing Frequency, in association with startrek-games.com is proud to present special toonshow coverage of this years peoples choice awards, as well as the much anticipated results!

Greetings Trek Gamers and Pod Fans - And a Belated Merry Christmas!

This year, Hailing Frequency wanted to do something truly special for our christmas special - looking back at our christmas shows in 2006 and 2005 - there was'nt really a whole lot about them that was special - so this year, we got together and came up with the idea of doing a fully featured audio and TOONSHOW story - and thus, "When the Borg Assimilated Christmas" was born.

Penned by our very own Dominic Ervolina (aka Mr Juliano) - When the Borg Assimilated Christmas is our first major audio story, set aboard our virtual media ship, the devilfish (Which we would like to have in Star Trek:Online :) ).

The entire Hailing Frequency cast is present - Zach, Kinneas, K'sua'indra, MrJuliano, Croesus, and STO-Zones new co-host, Julianos brother David - (who's voice we had to digitally alter as he sounds so damn similar to juliano)

"When the Borg Assimilated Christmas" is our gift to you all - and we hope you will find it funny and exciting to listen too and watch - and yes, you read right - we said watch.

Kinneas - wanted to do a toonshow version of this special (( He would like ALL our shows to be Toonshows and move away from audio only. Any opinions?)) - as I am sure you can imagine, this was quite an undertaking which is why we are making this release a few days late - Though he is not done with all six scenes (damn, Romulan Ale) ...the show must go on...and so we are releasing the full audio version and the first five toonshows now.

There are some major differences between the two experiences - so we recommend that you check them both out!

(( P.S. Kinneas' 'Fleet Radio Toonshows' on YouTube were chosen as the best Star Trek fan videos on YouTube on the seventh day of 'The Twelve Days of Trek Christmas over at the TrekUnited web site! Check out Kinneas' other toonshows! ))

Greetings and Salutations Trek Gamers

Its been a little while since we the last edition of Hailing Frequency – I am sure allot of you thought we had kicked the bucket – but never fear – Hailing Frequency will always persevere.

There has been a lot going on recently, but do not worry as we have been keeping tabs on all of it. During this show, K’sua’indra gets us all caught up on the Star Trek Gaming News for the last couple of months.

Following this, we sit down for a chat with Captain Source of the Enterprise Temporal Cold War Project who is able to update us on everything going on over there. We also get to hear samples of TCW’s music which is layered into the background throughout the interview – and some of their voice acting talent!

Additionally, we also announce details of a competition in association with Lightspeed Design Studios.

We also discuss and review the recently released ‘Star Trek Conquest’ before moving onto a brilliant episode of Mod Weekly from Croesus.

After Mod Weekly, we talk in detail about the recently released screenshot from perpetual entertainment – be aware that portions of this discussion may offend the STO-Lovers out there.

Finally – Just before we end the show, we run a segment compiled by myself as a response to a cry from community member “RonaldRabbit” – detailing the best free star trek games out there!

I hope you all had a fun summer - the team here at Hailing Frequency have certainly been busy - I myself have been transitioning to a new job here in the UK, as well as moving - croesus has been working hard at hs place of work, as well as testing a whole bunch of new mods, and kinneas has been slogging away producing tons of new artwork for various projects.

So, without further ado, we give you, Episode 39 of Hailing Frequency. This one was meant to be released on sunday, but due to some issues with my ISP (talktalk) not letting me upload, it was delayed until today, so sorry for that - send your complaints to TalkTalk, part of the Carphone Warehouse.
