Xbox 360 Fancast 018 -- Et Tu, Fanboy?
Try as we might, we seem to have trouble shuffling 3 whole people into the "studio" these days, so you may notice that Dustin is absent during this episode of the Xbox 360 Fancast. We apologize for the delay, by the way. We were busy stuffing ourselves with exotic meats. This week we discuss EndWar, the fantastic Assassin's Creed trailer, new Guitar Hero III tracks, and oh so much more.

Xbox 360 Fancast 017 -- Mail Call
It's time yet again for another edition of the Xbox 360 Fancast. This week, we take a look at PGR3's uncanny ability to promote Sony products, the NPD numbers for April, and rant about what Microsoft needs to do to keep it's new gen lead. We also examine the howling rage of the internets caused by the lateness of the Halo 3 beta. After the break, we take special time to crack open the Fanmail barrel and pull out some freshly pickled emails (with extra garlic). Okay, so it's a disgusting metaphor but the upshot is we answer a lot more letters than usual this week. Maybe we answer yours! You'll have to download to find out.

Fancast Xtra -- Halo 3 beta chat
If you don't like Halo, this is going to be a rough three weeks for you, because everyone here at Fanboy Towers loves it. Since David Dreger couldn't make it to the most recent episode of the Xbox 360 Fancast, we decided to record a special session just to talk about our experiences with the beta thus far. In this Fancast Xtra, we take plenty of time discussing the 3 maps (Snowbound, High Ground, and Valhalla), the new weapons, and the equipment items of the Halo 3 beta. Think of it as an audio primer for the beta, which officially rolls out tomorrow.Subscribers (RSS MP3, iTunes) will receive the Xtra automatically. Others may download the MP3 by hitting the "read" link.Check out all the X3F Halo 3 beta coverage
Xbox 360 Fancast 016 -- Smooth Like Beta
You may notice something strange about this episode of the Xbox 360 Fancast. A thought might creep into your mind that it is missing a certain maple flavor. You may come to think that there is an overwhelming lack of hockey (or hockey's bastard cousin, curling). Should any such thoughts occur to you, know this: our resident Canadian is missing. But no worries, he'll be back later this week with lots of Halo 3 beta talk. Speaking of the Halo 3 beta, this week's episode is chock-full of creamy Halo 3 beta goodness. We also take some time to talk Shadowrun and J Allard's new 'do.

Xbox 360 Fancast 015 -- Shadowrunning at the mouth
This week, we bring you a super special edition of the Xbox 360 Fancast. Rather than just listening to us gab on and on about Burnout Paradise, the new Gears of War maps, and the metric ton of leaked Halo 3 goodness (which we do), why not listen to an interview with Mitch Gitelman? Who's Mitch Gitelman you ask? Why he's none other than the studio manager of FASA Studio, creators of the upcoming Xbox 360 and PC title, Shadowrun. We talk his ear off for nearly an hour about all things Shadowrun, from the game's genesis to its impending release.

Fancast: Got a question for Major Nelson?
We hinted at having a special guest on this upcoming Xbox 360 Fancast, and as it turns out, it will be Larry Hryb a.k.a. Major Nelson. We're thrilled at the chance to have him on our show, especially considering some of the current events this week. So, since we're going to be there, he's going to be there, and you're going to be listening, we figured you should be involved. So, do you have any questions for the Xbox Live Director of Programming? Obviously, inquiries about upcoming demos or patches may be a little tedious, so we're looking for unique and/or well thought out questions. You can either leave them in a comment, or shoot us an email at fancast [at] xbox360fanboy [dot] com.
Xbox 360 Fancast 003 -- Third-iversary
It's been a long hard road, but the Fancast has finally made it. That's right, it's our third-iversary. But we won't waste your time with flashbacks and clips from our expansive catalogue of old shows. No, we delve deep into the newest bits of info about our beloved Xbox 360. This week, we discuss all the latest Halo 3 news, unearth all the happenings on Xbox Live Arcade, poor some salt into Sony's already festering PR wound, and even round up some new Oblivion and Square-Enix news. And of course, there's a bunch of inane and pointless banter, too. It just wouldn't be a Fancast without it.Get the podcast[iTunes] Subscribe to the Podcast directly in iTunes (MP3).[RSS MP3] Add the Xbox 360 Fanboy Podcast feed (in MP3) to your RSS aggregator and have the show delivered automatically.As always, you can download the MP3 directly at the bottom of this post.
Xbox Rewards: X360F needs your input
To the sound of much fanfare and the smell of Old Spice, the Xbox Rewards program was made official this week. Naturally, we all have our own feelings about this. Our own resident achievement whore, David Dreger, will be unable to participate because he doesn't live in the United States (it's a helluva commute to Fanboy Towers for him). We want to know how you feel about the program. Is it a good thing to reward players for achievements? Is it just a sneaky way to get all of us to buy or rent more games?If you've got something to say, send an email to fancast[AT]xbox360fanboy[DOT]com. If you want, you can even send us a recorded message (WAV or MP3). If you've got something thought provoking to say, we might just share it with the world during the next Fancast. Of course, you can also leave comments right here. Tell us what you think, fanboys, then check out the Fancast next week.
Xbox 360 Fancast 002 -- Expansion
The 360 Fanboy domination train keeps rolling, as we bring you the second episode of the Xbox 360 Fancast. This week we discuss the latest Ghostbusters news, Xbox Live Arcade, recap our Halo 2 "Rule of Three" experiences, and of course we discuss all the latest 360 news. Not only that, but we're expanding the Fancast this week with listener mail! Gasp as we discuss our favorite "positions." Thrill as we design the ultimate multiplayer lobby.
