Xbox 360 Fancast 150 -- Of Centaurs and Male Bayonettas
This is it folks. 150 episodes of the Xbox 360 Fancast are now in the can, and that's not counting the many special episodes we recorded for events like E3 or the X3F TV video podcasts like XBLA in Brief. That's a lot of episodes. To celebrate, we brought on one of our biggest fans, a man who also happens to be responsible for our fantastic podcast artwork. That's right, it's none other than Chris Majewski, better known to Xbox Live as Magic Whiskey. As it happens, he's also responsible for some horrifying depictions of X3F's Richard and Alexander, both of which you can view after the break. We're not sure if they're safe for work or not, honestly. You'll just have to make that decision on your own. [iTunes] Subscribe to the Podcast directly in iTunes (MP3).

Xbox 360 Fancast 149 -- Yo So Offensive
Welcome to a shiny new episode of the Xbox 360 Fancast. This week, we talk about Bayonetta, the third party troubles of the Wii and how Natal might alleviate them. We also discuss just how the word "Yo" might be considered offensive by the Xbox Live team. Also, as you may have noticed, our podcast art has been updated to include our latest addition, Mr. Dave Hinkle. The art was once again created by friend of the Fancast, Chris Majewski.

Xbox 360 Fancast 148 -- Where is the Excitement?
We tried to get excited about Microsoft's CES 2010 announcements. We really did. Just listen to the latest Xbox 360 Fancast to find out how hard we tried. We also talk -- at great length -- about Bayonetta and its more ... naughty aspects. At one point, a hairy disco ball is mentioned. Give it a listen, and you'll also get a fresh installment of fanmail. Enjoy. [iTunes] Subscribe to the Podcast directly in iTunes (MP3).

Xbox 360 Fancast 146 -- Tempting Fate
It's unclear just how it happened, but this week's Fancast clocks in at almost two hours. It took a long time. Time that we could have spent writing about games. But, you demand podcast goodness and we must oblige, so prepare for a mountain of emails about underage gaming, the Japanese game industry, delicious dessert islands and more. We also take some time to discuss the NPD numbers and, of course, Starship Troopers. [iTunes] Subscribe to the Podcast directly in iTunes (MP3).

Xbox 360 Fancast 144 -- Color Me Sadd
It's Fancast time once again, and this week we spend quite a bit of time on Left 4 Dead 2, which seems to be stirring up some contention on the ol' Joystiq.

Xbox 360 Fancast 143 -- Modern Podfare
Yep, you guessed it, this week is about Modern Warfare 2. We throw some news in there, and even squeeze in one fan mail after the break, but the bulk is Modern Warfare 2. In the first half of the show, we break down our impressions of the game. In the second half, we tackle the controversial "No Russian" mission, which you may have heard about. And yes, before you ask, there are dropbears. Our faithful readers have kept us apprised of the growing dropbear menace, providing us with crucial evidence, which you can find after the break.

Xbox 360 Fancast 142 -- ODSB
We have got an absolute doozy of a show for you this week folks. Not only is it super long -- clocking in at nearly two hours -- but we invited Mr. Dave Hinkle to join in the shenanigans once again. With Xav back on the show, that's like four times the mayhem ... or something. We also talk about the greatest threat mankind has ever faced: The ODSB. What's an ODSB, you ask? You'll have to listen to find out. Also, shout out to Menno B, who brought our attention to the meticulously crafted, custom Dropbear Mazda Protege in Forza Motorsport 3.

Xbox 360 Fancast 141 -- Beware of Dropbears
We discuss a lot of things on this week's Fancast. Borderlands bugs,Modern Warfare 2 controversy, all kinds of stuff. None of that is really important though. What is important, is that we apprise our audience of the very real danger posed by dropbears. What's a dropbear, you ask? You'll have to listen to the show to find out. However, as a teaser, please direct your attention after the break, where you will find an artist's rendering of the vicious creature -- as drawn by guest host Dave Hinkle. Now listen. Listen and learn. (Also after the break, see what Richard, Xav and Alexander dressed as for Halloween.) [iTunes] Subscribe to the Podcast directly in iTunes (MP3).

Xbox 360 Fancast 139 -- Back in Time

Xbox 360 Fancast 137 -- Two Tix to Tokyo
With Richard and Xav both returning from far off lands, this episode spirals into an out-of-control frenzy of giggles and inappropriate behavior.

Xbox 360 Fancast 136 -- The End of an Era
This is it. This is the show, kids. It's the very last episode of the Xbox 360 Fancast with Dustin Burg. We figured the most appropriate way to commemorate the occasion would be spending the entire episode talking about Halo 3: ODST, so that's exactly what we did. We also read from the gigantic pile of farewell letters that Dustin received. Give it a listen, and then give our departing host a moment of silence.Big thanks to Chris Majewski (AKA Magic Whiskey) for the farewell art above. Oh, we're also sure that you're wondering how we plan to deal with the problem of Dustin still being in our regular podcast art. Well, we've got it covered, thanks to reader Kcasey.

Xbox 360 Fancast 135 -- Earth: Shattered
This show is a doozy, folks. Not only do we go through the normal motions -- news, games, fanmail, etc -- but we do it all while having fun with our new soundboard.

Xbox 360 Fancast 134 -- Roosters Don't Have Teeth Redux
It's been a long time since we chatted with the folk at Rooster Teeth (almost 100 episodes!). With Red vs Blue still going strong and a new Halo 3: ODST ad campaign underway, we figured it was time to go at it again. We also talk about Sonic and the fools that keep crawling back to him, only to watch him speed away and laugh. Download it, and always remember: Camping is a legitimate strategy.
