Xbox 360 Fancast 086 -- Proof, Meet Pudding
Now, we've read some comments complaining that it's hard to tell the difference between the voices of Alexander and Dustin. Frankly, it's something we've never understood. They sound completely different. Like, totally. But there is a new comment, and that is that Richard (that's me!) sounds exactly like Chris Grant from the Joystiq Podcast. This is patently false, and we're going to prove it.Oh, and we also cover the latest news* .... yadda, yadda, yadda. Download and learn.*We were totally wrong about the Alan Wake trailer, too.Thanks to Stuart Harper for the disturbing image![iTunes] Subscribe to the Podcast directly in iTunes (MP3).[Zune] Subscribe to the Podcast directly in Zune Marketplace (MP3).[RSS MP3] Add the Xbox 360 Fanboy Podcast feed (in MP3) to your RSS aggregator and have the show delivered automatically.[AAC] Download the enhanced AAC directly.[MP3] Download the MP3 directly.Hosts: Richard Mitchell (SenseiRAM), Dustin Burg (SuperDunners), Alexander Sliwinski (Sli Xander), Xav de Matos (Snypz)Produced by Richard MitchellMusic: Intro/Outro: "Electromooq" by Uma Floresta.

Xbox 360 Fancast 084 -- Fanboys Tell 'em
What would any given week be like without a new episode of the Xbox 360 Fancast. Peaceful? Prosaic? World-rending? We don't know and, frankly, we don't want to find out. Actually, come to think of it, we've missed a week before. For the life of us, we can't remember what happened as a result that week. Is that what missing a week causes: amnesia? Whatever it is, you'd better play it safe and listen to the latest episode.[iTunes] Subscribe to the Podcast directly in iTunes (MP3).[Zune] Subscribe to the Podcast directly in Zune Marketplace (MP3).[RSS MP3] Add the Xbox 360 Fanboy Podcast feed (in MP3) to your RSS aggregator and have the show delivered automatically.[AAC] Download the enhanced AAC directly.[MP3] Download the MP3 directly.Hosts: Richard Mitchell (SenseiRAM), Dustin Burg (SuperDunners), Alexander Sliwinski (Sli Xander), Xav de Matos (Snypz)Produced by Richard MitchellMusic: Intro/Outro: "Electromooq" by Uma Floresta.

Xbox 360 Fancast 083 -- Totally Boned
var digg_url = 'http://digg.com/podcasts/Xbox_360_Fanboy_2'; Despite our own best judgment and several threats, we have published yet another episode of the Xbox 360 Fancast. This week we discuss all the latest and greatest on the Xbox 360 and also wander far far off topic. Don't worry though because it's hilarious. At least we thought it was at the time. We also take on serious topics like the changing face of gaming journalism and ... um ... VelocityGirl.

Xbox 360 Fancast 082 -- Expedition
var digg_url = 'http://digg.com/podcasts/Xbox_360_Fanboy_2'; The Xbox 360 Fancast is (more or less) back to normal this week. The gang is (mostly) recovered after both PAX and too many late nights with Castle Crashers. This week, we chat about all the fun that Xav and Dustin had at PAX as well as covering the week's biggest Xbox 360 news. Finally, we come up with a word for games that are un-delayed.Special thanks to Venom Shot, keep on chug-chug-chuggin' along!Thanks to Richard Elliot for the image.[iTunes] Subscribe to the Podcast directly in iTunes (MP3).[Zune] Subscribe to the Podcast directly in Zune Marketplace (MP3).[RSS MP3] Add the Xbox 360 Fanboy Podcast feed (in MP3) to your RSS aggregator and have the show delivered automatically.[AAC] Download the enhanced AAC directly.[MP3] Download the MP3 directly.Hosts: Richard Mitchell (SenseiRAM), Dustin Burg (SuperDunners), Alexander Sliwinski (Sli Xander), Xav de Matos (Snypz)Produced by Richard MitchellMusic: Intro/Outro: "Electromooq" by Uma Floresta.

Xbox 360 Fancast Special -- PAX 2008
var digg_url = 'http://digg.com/podcasts/Xbox_360_Fanboy_2'; Well we have good news and bad news. The good news is we recorded an awesome X3F Fancast live in Seattle during PAX 2008! The bad news is, due to cellphone interference with the equipment, the audio came out pretty bad. So, instead of releasing nothing we thought we'd at least put it up for anyone brave enough to hear our impressions from the show. Xav and Dustin are joined by Joystiq's Kevin Kelly and PS3Fanboy's Jem Alexander (don't worry, we rag on him for his Sony love). Again, we apologize and promise to be back to normal next week![iTunes] Subscribe to the Podcast directly in iTunes (MP3).[Zune] Subscribe to the Podcast directly in Zune Marketplace (MP3).[RSS MP3] Add the Xbox 360 Fanboy Podcast feed (in MP3) to your RSS aggregator and have the show delivered automatically.[MP3] Download the MP3 directly.Hosts: Dustin Burg (SuperDunners), Xav de Matos (Snypz), Kevin Kelly and Jem AlexanderProduced by Xav de MatosMusic: Intro/Outro: "Electromooq" by Uma FlorestaFor fans: Xbox 360 Fancast Facebook group
Xbox 360 Fancast 081 -- Pacifism is a Strange Word
This week on the Xbox 360 Fancast we have a very special guest, none other than Matthew McCarthy, the writer of "Geometry Wars Will Be the Death of Me." You may recognize him better as "that dude that wrote the Geometry Wars song." We probe Matt's mind and discover what inspired the song and we even play the new full band version of his song. Of course we also have our usual news and even an X08 report from Xav. Give the show a listen and enjoy.Also, don't forget to check out the X3F Fancast Defense Force Podcast, made by some of our most stalwart fans.Thanks to Stuart Harper for the image![iTunes] Subscribe to the Podcast directly in iTunes (MP3).[Zune] Subscribe to the Podcast directly in Zune Marketplace (MP3).[RSS MP3] Add the Xbox 360 Fanboy Podcast feed (in MP3) to your RSS aggregator and have the show delivered automatically.[AAC] Download the enhanced AAC directly.[MP3] Download the MP3 directly.Hosts: Richard Mitchell (SenseiRAM), Dustin Burg (SuperDunners), Alexander Sliwinski (Sli Xander), Xav de Matos (Snypz)Special Guest: Matthew McCarthyProduced by Richard MitchellMusic: Intro/Outro: "Electromooq" by Uma Floresta.

Xbox 360 Fancast 080 -- Football!
Episode 080. Wow. What can we say? It seems appropriate that this show drops the week after Madden 09. The more things change, the more they stay the same, so they say. As such, we bring you this fresh Fancast that is much the same as it ever was. We've got news, Fanmail, Fantalk and everything you've come to expect from us. And, thanks to Madden 09, we've got a heavy dose of footbaaaaalllll!

Xbox 360 Fancast 079 -- Ah, Euphemisms
We are, perhaps, belaboring the point now, but we really like Braid. Some of us like it more than others -- maybe even to an unhealthy degree -- but we all agree that it's a pretty wonderful game. But it wouldn't be a Fancast if all we did was gush about Braid (at least that what everyone told me when I wouldn't shut up about it), so we cover the usual gamut of Xbox 360 news and welcome back our long lost "Best Comment of the Week" feature. We'll give you a hint: the name of the feature is ironic.[iTunes] Subscribe to the Podcast directly in iTunes (MP3).[Zune] Subscribe to the Podcast directly in Zune Marketplace (MP3).[RSS MP3] Add the Xbox 360 Fanboy Podcast feed (in MP3) to your RSS aggregator and have the show delivered automatically.[AAC] Download the enhanced AAC directly.[MP3] Download the MP3 directly.Thanks to Cody Joy for the image!Hosts: Richard Mitchell (SenseiRAM), Dustin Burg (SuperDunners), Alexander Sliwinski (Sli Xander), Xav de Matos (Snypz)Produced by Richard MitchellMusic: Intro/Outro: "Electromooq" by Uma Floresta.

Xbox 360 Fancast 078 -- Progressively More Erotic
var digg_url = 'http://digg.com/podcasts/Xbox_360_Fanboy_2'; Welcome to episode 078 of the Xbox 360 Fancast. This week, we proudly welcome Xav back into the fold. He was apparently receiving threats for not being on the show. We care for his safety, so we decided he should probably come back. As usual, we take time to discuss the latest news, but that's small potatoes compared to our fanmail this week. Listen.

Xbox 360 Fancast 077 -- Feudin'
Now that E3 is long gone and we've had a week off to rest, the Fancast is back in full force. Okay, so it's almost back in full force. Unfortunately, Xav couldn't make it for this episode. That's okay, because he probably would have been totally jealous of the rest of the crew talking about all the awesome stuff they did at E3 anyway. That is what we do, by the way. This episode is a wrap-up of our E3 coverage. We talk about the games we played, the events we witnessed and we all pick our personal favorite games of the show.Oh, and Dustin also picks a fight with Justin McElroy of the Joystiq podcast.

No Fancast this week
Hey fanboys, after the incredibly hectic week that was E3, we've decided to take a break from the Fancast this week. We won't be canceling an announcement or anything, and this is definitely not a hoax. It's the real deal. No Fancast. Sorry. We're all exhausted from E3 and truth be told, our fearless leader (hey, that's me!) is on vacation. We'll be back next week with episode 077 and our wrap-up of E3 (and any other OMG megatons that happen to drop between now and then). See you soon.
Xbox 360 Fancast E3 08 Special: Day 1
var digg_url = 'http://digg.com/podcasts/Xbox_360_Fanboy_2'; Hey everyone, let's make this super clear, everyone on the X3F crew is dog tired. We made this episode running on nothing but pure nerve, and it shows. Today we endeavor to talk about Gears of War 2 multiplayer details, Fallout 3, Fable 2, Banjo Kazooie, and many other topics. Oh, and by the way, Left 4 Dead is freaking awesome. Listen to the show and wish us luck in the remaining days of E3.

Xbox 360 Fancast E3 08 Special: Day 0
Here it is fanboys. E3 hasn't even officially started yet, and already we're running ourselves ragged and staying up into the wee hours of the morning (it's just after 4:00 in the morning in Los Angeles as of this posting ... eesh). Here is the first of our E3 Special Fancasts. We'll be dropping a new one every day during E3 this week, so keep your eyes open for Day 1 tomorrow. We won't be offering these as enhanced podcasts, by the way, as we're putting them together as quickly as possible for everyone. Enjoy today's Day 0 episode, as Dustin, Alexander and Richard (that's me!) discuss the Microsoft E3 Press Briefing.

Xbox 360 Fancast 076 -- Decisions, and also E3
This is it folks. E3 is only a week away. With so little time left, we thought it was best to dedicate this episode to our E3 predictions and to our plans for the event. The image above, lest you're wondering, is none other than the official X3F sticker. We'll be carting a boatload of them to E3. We'll be distributing them to famous people in exchange for photographs. We think it's a pretty good deal. Oh, and you just might get your own sweaty little hands on one during the Joystiq E3 meet up. But that's next week.

Sure, there is a perfunctory, soulless celebration, but the truth is that the presents are dwindling, and the ones you do get are probably clothes anyway. There was a time when we used to truly celebrate every tenth episode of the Fancast. This was mainly because each milestone seemed less likely than the last. Nowadays, however, another ten episodes seems inevitable, rote, ordinary. C'est lå vie, non?Oh, Xav is back.
