Apple has finally included podcast downloading in the iPhone firmware with version 2.2. This is a good move as I know millions of you loyal 2P START! Live! fans out there were waiting for this very update before buying the iPhone/iPod Touch JUST so you could get your 2P START! Live! fix when you were away from your computers. The screenshot shows just how perfect (5 stars) our podcast is...to the three people that reviewed it (probably Ray, myself, and my dad). But seriously, now would be a great time to review the podcast on iTunes, and make sure you're subscribed!
A lot of you may have seen this awhile back, but since it's related to this week's comic, I thought I'd share it with those who hadn't seen it! This is a very touching comic revolving around Animal Crossing. The original was just a comic, but I like the animated version as well.
I promised first impressions, and as a man of my word, here they are! I got the New Xbox Experience (NXE) two days early, so I've had at least a couple days to check things out. I'll probably have a better feel for this 'experience' in a month or so and might post something then too, but for now...
Dashboard
The 'coverflow' style layout of everything is nice enough, despite not utilizing screen real estate very well. My big problem here is that most of the information seen isn't useful to me and I have no way to customize what's there. A lot of the 'channels' are either advertising or not something I care about, so the ability to turn them off would make navigation easier for me. Everything does look much sharper than before though, so I'm sure once I get the navigation down I'll like it even better.
I worked up this image recently after starting season 3 of Heroes. Any Heroes fans out there? If so, do you get the joke? If I had a more appropriate picture of Claire (perhaps from episode 1 of Villians), the joke might be clearer, but I couldn't find a good screen grab.
Woohoo! I'm getting the NXE 2 days early! I'm actually pretty excited to make my avatar, and to try out the game installations. Impressions will be posted tomorrow!
In this episode, Tim and Ray have Ray's brother Eddie back on to talk about the Wii as a casual gamer's console. Plus a trio of Black Doom Awards, Musical Misfits and more!
I'm curious what you guys think of 2P START! these days and how we can better your experience. No promises or anything, but Ray and I always like hearing what you guys think and we're always looking for new, creative ways to have fun here, so feel free to vote, add your own suggestions, or just leave comments below!
Podcast coming later today, but in the meantime, I thought I'd inform you of some promo codes that will save you some money on a t-shirt order! I know we've promised new shirts, and they WILL be coming in 2009. But for the time being, these codes will work for our current lineup of shirts for all your holiday shopping needs!
Tim and Ray discuss what the economic turmoil means for gaming, announce who won the gaming presidency, and manage to sneak in a third black doom award. And did somebody say "new segment?"
