    Just when we thought it was safe to record the Fancast again, the dreaded internet mongoose reared its ugly head once more. We had some recording issues this week thanks to the aftermath of the vicious winter storm that zapped the US last week. Still, a Fancast is expected and a Fancast we will provide in rain, sleet, or snow. This week, we discuss the success of Assassin's Creed, new Tomb Raider details, and delve into the ever vociferous high definition format war. Also, we should point out that we have a shiny new Zune link that will allow you to download the Fancast straight from the Zune Marketplace. Click. Listen.

    var digg_url = 'http://digg.com/podcasts/Xbox_360_Fanboy_2'; Well, fanboys and girls, it was an exciting evening yesterday. Yesterday was not unlike a video game in many ways. We tested our platforming skills as we dodged the many ice-laden tree branches tumbling from the sky, and we also solved the puzzles of clearing said branches from the driveway, discovering where we could locate electricity, and untangling the the great stricture placed upon our intertubes. After a vicious battle with the icy tendrils of nature, we emerged victorious, as precious internet access was restored to our neck of the woods. Good thing too, because we've got a Fancast to deliver. This week we discuss the new GTAIV trailer, demo madness, and the hosing of Canadians and Xbox Live Silver members. We also chat about an interesting solution to COD4's "p" problem, poorly-reviewed games (and the buying of them), Achievement shame, and whether or not the FPS genre is getting stale. Oh, and we also have an announcement to make, but you'll have to listen to find out (or read the inevitable comments that will follow).

    So, this is where we make "over the hill" jokes. Yes, break out the black balloons, it's episode 40 of the Xbox 360 Fancast. Appropriately enough, it's only a few days shy of Halloween. Middle-aged jokes aside, we've got quite a special treat for our fans out there. Of course, we have the usual poignant, witty repartee you've come to expect, but we've also got a special guest: Michael "Burnie" Burns from Rooster Teeth Productions, the daring crazy-folk behind Red. Vs. Blue. As usual, we chat about the latest goings on in Xbox, but we also get an exclusive opportunity to talk with Burnie about Recovery One, their final Halo 2 project. Not only that, but we talk about Rooster Teeth's plans for Halo 3.

    It's getting close. Can you smell it? Episode 40. It goes down next week. But before we get there, we've got to lay down Episode 39. This week, we talk about Microsoft's success in September (and their indebtedness to Halo 3), Bionic Commando, Street Fighter IV, and whether or not Mass Effect will deliver (hint: it will). We also congratulate our own David Dreger on completing a 681 day streak of earning at least one achievement every day. If you count down those days, you will discover that he's been doing it since launch day. Yeah, he's nuts, but he's good nuts, you know?

This week, we drool over the excellence of Portal, rejoice in the 360 confirmation of Project Offset, and discuss the bitter truth of interoffice fanboy bias.

Git ta downloadin'.Oh, did we mention that Dustin didn't play Gears of War last week?

    Can you believe it? 35 magical episodes of the Xbox 360 Fancast. We'll save the schmaltzy flashbacks for another time though, because this week it's serious business. Oh yes, tonight is the launch of Halo 3 and it's episode 35. You can bet your booties we have a special guest, and... um ... we do, so hand over your booties if you didn't believe us. To celebrate the magnificent arrival of Halo 3, we invited a very special guest, Geoff Ramsey from Rooster Teeth Productions. Best known as Griff from the Halo machinema series Red Vs. Blue, Geoff helps us discuss the merits of achievement boosting, what's happening at Rooster Teeth, and, of course, Halo 3. Together, we create a Fancast the likes of which the universe has never seen. Let us hope that the bounds of our natural laws can contain it.

    var digg_url = 'http://digg.com/podcasts/Xbox_360_Fanboy_2'; Ladies and gentlemen, this is the penultimate Fancast before Halo 3. One week from today, we'll be Fancasting and dreaming of the glory that is soon to befall us (we hope). But, that's a week away, and now we must concentrate on the painfully wretched present. And what better way to do that than with a firm dose of sarcasm? And, if you want to do that, why not recruit the man behind Sarcastic Gamer, Jeromy "Doc" Adams. Together, we dissect the hype surrounding Halo 3, drool over Ninja Gaiden 2, laugh at the Engineer from TF2, and take a gander at the Xbox 360's sales numbers. We also discuss the dangers of keeping your Xbox 360 controllers within the general vicinity of children and toilets. Long story short: not the best idea.
