On the weekend before E3, the gang is up early with guest, Miellyn. We talk a little about Titanfall, Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee, and the great things coming to Geek Girl Con. We take a look at the XBLA title State of Decay, tabletop card game Food Fight, and indie title Gunpoint. Finally, we try to predict the most outlandish E3 announcement in our NAQOTW. Zomboni!
The guys get together for a whole mess of gaming discussion: Borderlands 2, FUSE, D&D, Gears of War, Double Fine, KOTOR, The Starship Damrey, Combo Crew, and Epic Spell Wars of the Battle Wizards: Duel at Mt. Skullzfyre. Seriously. Finally, we discuss the high standards we set for the NAQOTW and reach into the ol’ mail sack. Whew.
The gang welcomes the voice behind Bioshock Infinite’s Elizabeth, the multi-talented Courtnee Draper, to the show. We talk about the balance between acting and law school, the passion that went into the realization of Elizabeth.
The gang is back at full strength again to talk about the newly announced Xbox One. We give our reactions to the press event, talk about the features of the system, and try to make some sense of the Internet response. In the NAQOTW, you tell us ONE thing you liked and ONE thing you didn’t like about the new system. “Give it a second… it’s going to space.”
On this episode we welcome the awesome Michael Biehn, whom you already know from such films as Terminator, Aliens, and Tombstone. We talk with Michael Biehn about movies, his directorial experience with The Victim, providing his voice to Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon, and more. Also, Miellyn Barrows stops by to put up with Scott and Ash, while Matt and Hilary are out; and we told you so about ABC’s upcoming TV show, SHIELD. See the future.
A slow news week can’t keep the gang down on this May the Fourth / Free Comic Book Day celebration. We talk Shadow of the Eternals, High Heavens, Dragon Age: World of Thedas, The Elite, Star Command, and Far Cry: Blood Dragon. Ash regales us with takes of D&D, and you tell us your go-to fantasy RPG class. Utini!
The gang is back together again for the first regular podcast of the new Rated NA Century! We talk a little Hero Academy, Nintendo, New Xbox, Beyond: Two Souls, and Oxyana. We review Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen, Adera (ft. Ali Hillis) and Oblivion. SPOILER ALERT: Bioshock Infinite spoiler talk (54:20 – 1:08:07). Finally, a great NAQOTW where you tell us what you love about where you are! Wish you were here!
We welcome the awesome and talented Ali Hillis back to the podcast. She takes us through her origin story, how she got into acting and video games, and her love of animal rescue. Our chat concludes in a rapid fire session we call the Lightning round… get it?! Finally, Rated NA responds to a challenge of our PC gaming cred. It’s on.
Episode 100 ! What else is there to say? I couldn’t be more proud of how far we’ve come, more astonished that people listen… and continue to listen, and more energized for what we’ve yet to create.
The gang returns from PAX East 2013 with tales of gaming, friendship, and pax pox. In Hilary’s absence, an attempt at a gentleman podcast is made.
