BLAST PROCESSING! Episode 100: E3 special edition!

By Steve Power on June 16, 2011

I bet you never thought we’d get this far! Steve, Dave, and Adam ring in Episode 100! Jon’s there lurking, and is very sad because his mic is busted, but at least he’s there in spirit, laughing at the rest of us.

WE run down the big ole slab of “what the hell?” that was E3 2011! If The Cirque De Soliel is the most exciting show on Earth, this just may have been the most boring. There’s some PSVita inspired hand-wringing, some Wii-U inspired head-scratching, much yawning over Kinect and much love for Uncharted 3, Skyrim, and Mass Effect 3! Tune in, enjoy! And be sure to let us know how you felt about this years E3 by commenting below, or better yet – heading on over to the DVDVerdict Jury Room

BLAST PROCESSING! Episode 99: The Great one!

By Steve Power on June 2, 2011

Steve and Jon (who’s volume is super low thanks to some kind of recording anomaly – sorry) are back to run down the news.

The PSN is back ,and Activision has announced their subscription plans for Call of Duty.

Meanwhile, the guys are still playing LA Noire, but Jon finds time for some Brink, while Steve digs into The Witcher 2, and Hunted: The Demon’s Forge.

BLAST PROCESSING! Episode 98 – Good business is where you find it.

By Jon Mercer on May 26, 2011

Suit up with Steve and Jon for another epic sortie against the forces of boredom. Your two favourite Canadian gaming chimps find new and exciting ways to eviscerate 75 minutes of your precious time.

On the news front; Steve breathes an incredulous sigh of relief as the PSN Crisis lumbers to an end (and nobody thought to tell him!?), and there’s a thrilling discussion about the perfectly-timed Modern Warfare 3 info “leak”.

Jon offers up a nickel’s worth of free advice to one of the major first-party developers regarding their big E3 performance this year before the boys get onto the topics of the day and discuss the games they’ve been and you should be playing. There’s some love doled out to Dirt 3, The Witcher 2 (DYLAN!! You son of a witch!), and some game about Templars, but they all slink into the background once L.A. Noire takes the stage. Has Rockstar struck gold again? Is this the first Mature-rated game to truly be mature?

BLAST PROCESSING! Episode 97 – Portals, Parkour, and one other P-word.

By Steve Power on May 12, 2011

Join Steve and Jon as they once again waste your time with thoughts on Portal 2, Brink, Socom 4, Some crazy Japanese RPG for the Nintendo DS, and Nascar: 2011: THE GAME!

In the news, all the talk is focused on the Playstation Network Crisis (Day 19!) with commentary from our war correspondent on the frontlines: Jack Bastard: Ass Kicker.

There’s also some excitement generated by a host of announcments from the Namco-Bandai camp this past week, including a locked down release window for Dark Souls (“Spiritual successor” to Steve’s game of 2009 – Demon’s Souls) which will be coming in a nice special edition. We love special editions!

BLAST PROCESSING! Episode 96 – FistiKUFFS Edition!

By Steve Power on April 20, 2011

Steve and Jon are joined by the Prodigal American, Dave Johnson this week for a “very special” Blast Processing that tempers American resolve with Canadian insanity. The boys are all very excited about Mortal Kombat‘s triumphant return to consoles, which leads to much discussion of bloody, brutal fighting games, and Dave’s custom made John Cabot “Gymkata” fighter from one of the previous generation’s pretty awesome MK games.

To further celebrate Mortal Kombat week, Steve and Jon discuss their favorite Fatalities, and after the triumphant return of Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat, we pose the question; “What other 2D classics or not so classics are ripe for a full on 3D rebirth?”

BLAST PROCESSING! Episode 95 – With an Apostrophe ‘S’!

By Steve Power on April 14, 2011

It’s been a few weeks since our last BLAST’S PROCESSING! Steve, Jon, and Adam are back with an epic length session (our longest episode yet!) that makes up for lost time.

The guys talk about what they been playing before diving headlong into a busy week full of news and announcements, including Sony’s issues with Anonymous, and Capcom’s rather impressive CAPTIVATE ’11 event.

We seal the deal with a little tribute to all things Capcom, where the guys pick their favourite Capcom game of the last ten years (that isn’t Street Fighter 4) and big, imposing boss battles that made them poop their clothes.

BLAST PROCESSING! Episode 94: Laying Boot to Evil God Ass!

By Steve Power on March 24, 2011

Back again are everyone’s favourite belligerent Canucks, Jon and Steve. When they ain’t recording foul-mouthed podcasts where they hate on everything you love, they spend their time exploring Kirkwall in Dragon Age II, and repelling an invasion of the vile Andy aliens in Crysis 2. There’s also some talk of Hard Corps: Generic Shooter title for the Xboxlive Arcade and PSN, and John Milius’ unofficial shooter sequel to Red Dawn, Homefront.

Plus there’s the usual rundown of all things deemed newsworthy, and the most kick ass design concept for a video game based on an 80s action film you’ve ever heard… (hint: One of the achievements would be called; “No way you live… no way!”)

Is Crysis 2 all it’s cracked up to be now that you don’t need a computer with Cthulhu Inside(TM) technology to run it? How do you feel about the changes made to Dragon Age II? Will GeoHotz fall victim to a South American corporate hit squad in his attempt to flee from justice? Let us know what you think!

BLAST PROCESSING! Episode 93: 2.21 Isoanimorphosic googleflops of RAW POWER!

By Steve Power on March 3, 2011

Steve and Jon are back for some more incoherent ramblings. Killzone 3 and Bulletstorm lead to ranting and raving about the first person shooters of this generation, while news that Play Magazine has bit the dust spurs on another rant on the state of the Video Game Journalism.

What few trickles of news that have come from GDC this week are there to be had, and there’s talk of many things that are gauranteed to offend some fanboy or another.

To end the night, we talk about finishing… games that is.

What you think of First person shooters? How about that Mario game for the 3DS (Racoon tail!) Care to share your thoughts? Share in the comments below, over in the DVD Verdict Jury Room forums, or by emailing feedback@pixelverdict.com.
