Armchair Gamer Podcast Season Two Episode Two: Taking A Journey!

AGP this week is about two things. One, Thatgamecompany released a new PSN title called Journey. As an indie art game aficionado, I explain in great detail why you should buy it. Two, I talk to a friend of the show, Nick Schneider, about emotional impact of games. (The quality is a little poor, recorded it off an iPod)

Armchair Gamer Podcast Eight: This Year In Gaming.

On this, the last edition of the Armchair Gamer Podcast this calendar year, we not only eternally condemn ourselves with irreverent humor, we also analyze some of the high points (and low points) of our personal year of gaming, along with games released this year. Also, we talk a little bit about the way our favorite gaming mag, Gameinformer, once was. Warning: Nostalgia abounds. Thanks for listening, and happy holidays.

First, thanks to everyone who listens to the show. There’s a lot of shows out there, and I’m glad you stop in every once and a while for ours. I hope you have a happy holiday season with friends and family. In case you are wondering, the hectic season and conflicting schedules, along with a noticeable lack of topics this time of year, has led us to deciding to finish making new episodes this year with this episode. This doesn’t mean we got cancelled, though… Starting next month, January, we will pick right back up where we left off, with more of the show, and some new content which I’ll make up some time.

The Armchair Gamer Podcast SpecialSode #1: Halloween Horror!

This week on the Armchair Gamer Podcast, we have a special episode. Rather than discussing the boring old news of the week, we (Nick Schneider, JJ, Michael Fox, John *Jman* and myself: Braden Fox) discuss horrorifying games. This discussion isn't limited to horror games, per-se. In fact, as you will see, we go into the very concept of fear as an emotion experienced while playing any game. Join us on this quest into the darkest corners of our mind, won't you?
