Hello and welcome to our special episode, in which we celebrate America's finest tradition, Juneteenth! We celebrate by, uh, well. By doing the same thing we always do, except faster! We talk about games we've been playing, including a number of IGF competitors, Silent Hill Wii, the new Borderlands DLC and more. Then we talk about what you're all thankful for and close out with RELATIONSHIP LETTERS ALL THE TIME. Not really, but there really are some relationship letters. Remember kids, it takes a while for the dicks to stop spinning, so be safe out there.

This week's music, in order of appearance:

The Black Heart Procession - The Spell

She Wants Revenge - Time

Jason Mraz - If It Kills Me (Acoustic)

Bonjour! Welcome to Episode 41 of Rebel FM. This week we start by talking about Left 4 Dead 2, Assassin's Creed II, Peggle Nights and more, then move on to a slightly spoilery conversation about Modern Warfare 2. However! We make clear mention of it before starting, and you can then skip to 1:18:20 to avoid any spoilers. Then we move on to the second segment and talk about your gaming bummers of 2009, and close out with letters. Misunderstood Penis!

Greetings and welcome to the first episode of our Game Club series on Crimson Skies: High Road to Revenge! This week we have a shorter episode dedicated to our initial impressions of the game's mechanics and style and the first 5 chapters of the game. Aerial penis!

This episode is very special for us. While it starts off with the standard game talk, covering things like Captain Forever, Torchlight, and some Civ. Rev., it transitions into something unlike what we've ever done before. We recently traveled to Houston, Texas to tour a Children's Miracle Network cancer ward. While there, we interviewed children and their families, and have put that, along with a talk that includes Doc from SarcasticGamer.com, into a special second half that is great to listen to for information about pediatric cancer, but also about how you can help.

Donations stay in your area, and if you're interested in contributing, you can go to our special Children's Miracle Network donation page, here.

Thanks for listening,

Chuf

This weeks show starts with what we've been playing, including Borderlands, Dante's Inferno PSP, Saw, Forza 3, Uncharted 2 (Tyler's playthrough), Plants vs. Zombies, and World of Goo. After an extensive games talk we move onto your topics from Twitter, covering a host of various topics pertinent to our audience. Last, but certainly not least, we close out with your letters, doing our best to avoid any and all relationship questions. Enjoy!

Bienvenidos! This week we've got a long first segment as we talk about Modern Warfare 2's SpecOps mode, Saw, Borderlands, and quite a bit more.

HORSE the band - Science Police;

We close out our Game Club series this week with another 2 hour show, as we discuss where Valve went with Episode 2 of the Half Life 2 series and where we think they might be headed. If you want to hear more, keep an ear out after the outtake for an extended Valve soliloquy!

Greetings, and welcome to Episode 35 of Rebel FM. This week we talk about Bowser's Inside Story, Lucidity, New Super Mario Bros, how broken Empire: Total War is, and more, then go for a doublewide segment of letters. Small penis.

This week's music, in order of appearance: 

Periphery - Lights

Imogen Heap - 2-1

Now It's Overhead - Wait In a Line

Episode 2 of our Half Life 2 Game Club is now live. Confused by our naming scheme on this one? Yeah, so am I, but for this episode you should have completed the entirety of Half Life 2. For next week we’re playing through Episode 1, and for our fourth show we’re playing through Episode 2. Maybe we should think of something other than “episode” to call these game club shows?

This week’s show features not only the regular crew of Matt, Tyler, Arthur and myself, but also Area5.tv’s Ryan O’Donnell. Can you say f-yeah?

Greetings to you, flying squirrel aficionados! This week the regular crew of Anthony, Tyler and myself are joined by A Life Well Wasted's Robert Ashley as we mix it up a little (or down a little, as the case may be) with and extended what we've been playing segment followed by a long letters extravaganza. Why waste time writing when you're already listening to the dulcet tones of Max Chill? Fat penis sir. Fat penis. 

This week's music, in order of appearance: 

Scary Kids Scaring Kids - Holding On; 

Lisa Miskovsky - Still Alive

Unfortunately, it's hard to do a G-Man voice in a synopsis, so screw the foreplay. Hello! Welcome to the first installment of our Game Club series on Half Life 2 plus episodes, where we talk about the fundamental differences between Half Life 2 and its predecessor (and its first person successors), the finer nuances of zero-point energy manipulation, and more! This episode covers from the beginning of Half Life 2 up through the end of Ravenholm, and be sure to play through the end of the game for next time. MIT penis!

As we dragged our semi-swine flu'ed carcasses back across the California border, we finished recording a special little podcast just for you! In the first section (recorded from the comfort of our hotel room) we discuss the games we saw at PAX both hands-on and from afar and our thoughts about them, including Mass Effect 2, Battlefield Bad Company 2, Shank, Death Spank, L4D2, and a lot more. Then, as recorded in a piece of metal hurtling down Interstate 5, we talk about our human experiences at PAX, including our thrilling, truck stop drama on the way up to Seattle. We apologize for the sound quality in the second segment, since, you know, recorded in a moving vehicle, but, well, you don't HAVE to listen, do you? Mobile penis!

This Week's Music, in order of appearance:

Nine Inch Nails - 1,000,000

Phantom Planet - California

Hola! Welcome to Rebel FM Episode 31. This week we're joined by 1UP.com's Community Manager Tina Sanchez as we talk about LOL, Wolfenstein, Guitar Hero 5, and more.

This week's music, in order of appearance:

La Roux - In for the Kill

Opeth - Harvest

The Devil Wears Prada - Like Thunder

Welcome back friends and neighbors, and thanks for joining us in our concluding episode of our Game Club series on Heavenly Sword! After this episode we'll be taking a few weeks off from Game Club due to PAX and scheduling, but we'll be scheming for the next game in the meantime. As usual, you can check out a video for this weeks section at www.eat-sleep-game.com. Heavenly Penis!

Hola and welcome to episode 30 of Rebel FM! This week Tyler, Anthony and I (Arthur) talk about Wet, Wolfenstein, Shin Megami DS and Rage, then move on to talk about the PS3 price cut and the hardware situation as we (and some of you) see it. Then we close out with letters, including an extended discussion on how personal ethics might determine how likely someone is to buy Shadow Complex. Buckle your seatbelt brah, it's a long one (about 2:54 or so).

Extended Penis!

This week's Music, in order of appearance:

Monster Magnet - Monolithic

TV on the Radio - Blues From Down Here

Alkaline Trio - Wake Up Exhausted (Tegan & Sara cover)

Greetings and welcome to our first episode of our Game Club series on Heavenly Sword! This week we talk about our initial thoughts about the storytelling and mechanics, how the game does things differently than its peers, and then things get a little heated on the topic of motion control. This is a two episode Game Club, so be sure to finish the game by next Monday evening. Heavenly Balls!

Salutations! It's Anthony Gallegos, Tyler Barber and Arthur Gies this week as we talk about Shadow Complex, Operation Flashpoint 2, Fable 2 and more in what we've been playing, then we move on to talk about good and bad game design in the second segment and close out with letters.

Then we close out with letters, as usual.

This week's music, in order of appearance:

Snow Patrol - Spitting Games

Greetings! Welcome back for our final episode for our series on Star Wars: Republic Commando. We're joined this week by Tim Longo, Director and Lead Designer for the title, who talks with us about the game's inspiration, it's development cycle, and how he feels about it almost 4 years later. It's a great conversation, and I think I speak for all of us when I say this might be our favorite episode of Game Club. We've also got some custom desktop wallpapers for you for Republic Commando at eat-sleep-game.com, so be sure to check it out.

It's a slightly nutty show this week as Tyler, Anthony and I start out talking about 'Splosion Man and the Predator, then the ball really gets rolling as I detail my game overload via Comic Con. We talk about Dante's Inferno, Bayonetta, God of War 3, Lost Planet 2, Spyborgs, Dark Void, Saboteur, Brutal Legend, and Singularity, and then close out with letters.

Death to leps.

This week's music, in order of appearance:

Queens of the Stone Age - You Think I Ain't Worth A Dollar

Kylesa - To Walk Alone

We're back for episode 2 of our Game Club series on Star Wars: Republic Commando. In this episode, we play through the second campaign, the Ghost Ship.

For next week, make sure to play through the end of the game and chime in with your thoughts on the third campaign on the Wookie homeworld of Kashykk. May the penis be with you!

Gutentag! This week Anthony, Tyler and myself are joined by Matt from Area5 as we talk about Left 4 Dead 2, Dead Space, Ghostbusters, and more, then move on to how everyone's keeping busy during this late (and short) slow period for releases, and close out with letters. It's a shorter show since I had to leave about an hour later for sunny (kind of?) San Diego, but it just means the awesome is more tightly packed together!

FAT PENIS IS GOING NOWHERE.

This week's music in order of appearance:

Nightmare of You - Dear Scene, I wish I Was Deaf

Audioslave - Shape of Things to Come

My Chemical Romance - Famous Last Words

Thanks!

Welcome back to Game Club. This time around our selection is Star Wars: Republic Commando. Republic Commando is a tactical FPS that puts you in the shoes of a Republic Commando, the elite unit of the Galactic Empire's clone army during the Clone Wars, set between Star Wars Episodes I and II. This week we talk about the first section, the Genosian campaign. For next time, be sure to play through the second campaign (this will be a three episode series, one for each campaign). May the Penis be with you!

Bad news first: No Bobito this week due to circumstances beyond our control (or I jinxed it, one or the other). The good news: Tyler, Anthony and myself talk about Ghostbusters, Battlefield 1943, and then listen to your submissions for our new theme song. Then we close with letters, as usual. Municipenis!

This week's music, in order of appearance:

Nonpoint - Signs

Atmosphere - Little Man

Alice in Chains - A Looking in View

Thanks!

And we're in the home stretch this week as we conclude our Game Club series on Hitman Blood Money.

This week we talk about the final two official levels, Dance with the Devil and Ammendment XXV, as well as the ending sequence, Requiem. We're also announcing the next Game Club pick, Star Wars: Republic Commando (but don't discuss it here, as we'll do a post dedicated to it later Wednesday). We haven't yet gotten the Io questions finished up, so those will be presented in a later followup post. We had a lot of fun (for the most part), and we look forward to playing along with you next time! Municipal Penis!

We've got a special guest on the podcast this week as Anthony, Tyler and myself are joined by former 1up copy editor and current Bitmob.com Contributor Jason Wilson as we talk about Sacred 2, look on in amazement as Tyler falls down the rabbit hole of Civ 4, and opine about the appeal of Fight Night Round 4's controls and boxing vs. MMA. Then we go into a long second segment about writing in games media, but not how you're used to; if you've ever asked how you can be a better writer, or wanted to know what you might be doing wrong, or what everyone else might be doing wrong, you'll want to pay close attention. Then we close out with letters. Apologies for some spotty audio quality here and there, as some nobs were nudged where they shouldn't be. This will be fixed in time for next week, where we'll be judging theme song entries with our special guest judge Robert Ashley. 

Fat Penis (it's cool, we're taking it back!)

This week's music, in order of appearance:

Portishead - Roads

Lamb of God - Descending

B L A C K I E - Like a Little Kid, Yeah

We're back after an off week with this week's episode of the Hitman: Blood Money Game Club! This week, we cover acts Death on the Mississippi, Til Death Do Us Part, and House of Cards, which you'll find recapped in the video below. Post your comments for the rest of the game below, and be sure to post any questions you might have for the developers below or email us at letters(at)eat-sleep-game.com.

It's a three man show that falls off the rails into the land of off-topic-ery often this week as Anthony, Tyler and Arthur talk about Fight Night Round 4, more Call of Juarez BiB, and the historical irony of Anthony's most recent Civ 4 excursion. Then it's on to games that surprised you (in a good way!) and letters. Big boned glans!

This week's music, in order of appearance:

Year of the Rabbit - Vaporize

PJ Harvey - Naked Cousin

Cyndi Lauper - Time After Time

Let's get this out of the way: it's a short show this week, and the sound quality is not great. Rather than skip a week due to some tomfoolery and shenanigans, we decided to sack up and record another of our diner-table podcasts. It's a long round of what we've been playing where we talk about the Uncharted 2 beta, Point Lookout, the new Fallout 3 DLC, and Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood, and then it's on to a few letters. This is NOT episode 23, so you've still got a couple of weeks to get in those theme song entries kiddos. Slim vaginas to you and yours.

This week's music, in order of appearance:

Blue Spanish Sky - Chris Isaak

The Dancer - PJ Harvey

We are like a well oiled machine! That murders people for money!

That sounded less creepy in my head.

We're back with round two of our Game Club series on Hitman: Blood Money! For this episode, we covered acts 5-7: A New Life, The Murder of Crows, and You Better Watch Out. Again, the video below covers some of the possible exploits that we cover this ep. If you want your comments or email read on next week's show, be sure to get them in by Monday afternoon.

Every time we try to do a low-key short show, we seem to find weird (and non-sequitur) reserves of energy. It's the usual three man love fest (wait) this week as Anthony Gallegos, Tyler Barber and I (Arthur Gies) talk about how weird it is for us to love a golf game, leaks in gaming media (of which we are apparently not immune!), and end with letters. That ask about poop. May the Goddess of the universe exchange twitter followers to bestow a fatter penis.

This week's music, in order of appearance:

All That Remains - Not Alone

Little Boots - Meddle

Turbonegro - Death From Above

Welcome back to Game Club! As previously mentioned, our new pick is Hitman: Blood Money. For our first episode we covered the tutorial and acts 1-3. If you haven't had a chance to play along yet, the video below should get you caught up in the meantime (though it certainly doesn't cover everything). For the next episode, play through and complete act 6, "You Better Watch Out", colloquially referred to as the Playboy Mansion level. Post your stories and strategies by next Monday afternoon for inclusion in Episode 2!

Welcome back! After a week off (well, sort of) from Rebel FM proper with Area5.tv’s Matt Chandronait joining Anthony, Tyler, and me as we talk about Infamous, Prototype, Red Faction: Guerilla, Tyler’s new PC erection, and then move on to the topic of motion control, which we hear you kids have opinions on. Then we finish up with letters.

This week’s music, in order of appearance:

The Reckoning - Killswitch Engage

Future Foe Scenarios - Silversun Pickups

Blood Red Summer - Coheed & Cambria

Tyler, Arthur and Anthony gather to discuss some of their favorite (and least favorite) moments from 2009's E3. Apologies for the quality, we did this in a local Ihop!

It's late, but I'm happy to bring you all our wrap-up episode for our Game Club series on Gun. This week, we talk about the ending section and our overall thoughts on the game, and following our discussion, I was able to speak at length with Scott Pease, Neversoft's Studio Development Director, Chad Findley, the Project Lead on Gun, and Joel Jewitt, Neversoft's President. We talk about the origins of the game and its influences, the evolution of the gameplay, and whether we can expect a sequel any time soon. As a quick note, this interview was conducted over a teleconference call, so set your expectations for sound quality appropriately, but all in all, you're in for a treat.

This week the regular crew of Tyler, Arthur and myself are joined by Area5.tv's Matt Chandronait. We discuss what we've been playing, the importance of video in games coverage (and how it's changed over the years), and conclude with your letters.

We'll be doing special broadcasts -- i.e. short -- from E3 when we find the time, so pay attention to our twitter feeds and eat-sleep-game.com to get the latest updates.

We are also still finalizing when we're going to do our E3 meetup, and I'll be sending out a group email soon to those who have written to me.

Cheers,

Anthony

Welcome to Wiener Talk, with your hosts Anthony Gallegos, Tyler Barber, and Arthur Gies! This week we talk about Grin and Bionic Commando, more discussion about your thoughts on the gaming press, and then move on to your letters.

Open Hand - The Ambush

Murder by Death - The End of the Road

Welcome to another episode of Rebel FM where we tried to do a short one and ran over 2 hours! It's just Anthony, Tyler, and me (Arthur) this week as we talk about Resident Evil Degeneration, how I learned to love Uncharted while hating its smoking, er, I mean shooting, and Cryostasis, plus your issues with gaming media, and a lot of letters, some which are about video games.

I'm not up to making any leprechaun jokes, but someone will I'm sure.

This weeks music, in order of appearance:

Metric - Too little too late

At The Drive-in - Arcarsenal

Killswitch Engage - When Darkness Falls

We're on round two of our Game Club series on Gun, as we talk about stagecoach chases, train hijackings, old-west style street justice, and wonder about the inherent violence of the local Chinese laundry (and somehow leprechauns wander into the discussion as well). We're going into a two week break between this episode and the final episode of this series, so you shouldn't have any trouble finishing it up in time. However, you should also email me (or comment) with questions for the developers of Gun by next Monday, as I should be chatting with developers before the concluding episode about the game, their thoughts on it, and answers to the questions you send in! As always, thanks for listening, and mythical genitalia to you.

Majestic Bacculum! Welcome to Episode 17 of Rebel Fm, where Gamespy/G4's Sterling McGarvey and Gamehelper.com's Jose Otero join the usual cast of Anthony Gallegos, Tyler Barber, and me, Arthur Gies as we talk about Killzone 2, Red Faction: Guerilla, Plants vs. Zombies, Wolverine, and more, then get into times where we've drifted away from gaming, and your letters!

Mammalian reproductive organs!

This week's music, in order of appearance:

Ben Harper and Relentless7 - up to you now

The Generic Tribe - In Guns We Trust (pay close attention, and you might notice why this is here)

Deftones - Simple Man

Welcome to the first episode of our Game Club series on Gun! In this episode we give our general impressions of the game so far, and give it some context as we talk about our experiences up to the saloon battle with the Red Hand Gang, and read some of your comments. For the next episode, be sure to play through the fall of Hoodoo! And remember, the main storyline in Gun is short! If you want to get your money's worth, play through some sidemissions and tell us your thoughts.

It's another three man circus as Anthony Gallegos, Tyler Barber and Arthur Gies (that's me) start out with talk of Red Faction: Guerilla, the rest of my trip to London to see Bethesda's move into publishing, Anthony's trip to Seattle to see MAG and his impressions of Dead to Rights: Retribution, and Tyler's musings on the new UFC title, then we move on to your E3 predictions and letters.

Fat Penis (never goes out of style).

This week's music in order of appearance:

Bat for Lashes - Pearl's Dream

As I Lay Dying - Confined

Emery - World Away

After all your waiting, here it is: our final installment of our Game Club series on Rockstar’s Bully! We discuss Chapter 5, our own slightly disturbing high school memories, and our love of Zoe (and sad faces that she was introduced so late!). And, uh, we might even tell you what our next Game Club game will be, based on your suggestions and our inflated senses of self importance, and we'll dedicating a post to it later today. As always, subscribe, review, and submit to your favorite social aggregator of choice, and thank you for all of your support.

Hey look, it’s episode 15! This week, it’s Anthony Gallegos, Tyler Barber, and I (Arthur Gies) talk about the logistics of podcast production, world travels, new DLC for Left 4 Dead and Fallout 3, Irish race car drivers, how parents view games and more! As always, remember to subscribe, digg, and review on Itunes.

Midget handjob!

P.S. I apologize for the bad audio quality from about 5:00 to 22:00; Chuf was hopped up on goofballs and fucked up the levels. It gets better, I swear.

We're back! More or less! It's a lower key show this week as Anthony, Tyler and I (Arthur) eat Chinese food, talk about Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena, Company of Heroes: Tales of Valor, the new Halo maps, and more as we talk about what some of you asked us to and then close out with letters. Next week we'll have one of you guys' favorite guests as well as a new face (voice?) for Rebel FM, and I'll post the question of the week later this weekend. Meanwhile, enjoy a more mellow Rebel and leave comments below!

We're back for volume 3 of our Game Club series for Rockstar's Bully! This week we discuss Chapter 4 and and talk about possible selections for our next installment. We've narrowed it down (ha), and will have a post later to discuss these possibilities, but for now, enjoy the ep, and play through to the end of chapter 5 for next time.

Game Club Bully part 2.

It’s been a rough week, but the magic continues as Anthony Gallegos and me (Arthur Gies) are joined by Area 5’s Matt Chandronait and our favorite dapper Texan Tyler Barber as we talk about the games we’ve been playing, GDC meanderings and mumbles, and some letters. Fat penis!

This week’s music is, in order of appearance:

A Day in the Life of a Pool Shark – Idiot Pilot (cd, mp3)

You Don’t Understand Me – The Raconteurs (cd, mp3)

Somewhere in Texas – The Raveonettes (cd, mp3)

Jane Pinckard and XNA Community Manager Kathleen Sanders join the regular crew to discuss games, gaming news, and read your letters.

Join us for the magic this episode as we're joined by the unfortunately curious Patrick Klepek and special guest and podcasting Svengali Andrew Pfister as we talk about the games we've been playing (there's a lot of talk about Resident Evil 5), issues of race in games (there's a lot of talk about Resident Evil 5), and close out with letters (which are blessedly free of Resident Evil 5).  This weeks music is, order of appearance: Oh Mandy, by the Spinto Band; Patent Pending by Heavens; and Damsel of Death by It Dies Today. 

The fourth and final installment of the Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth Rebel FM Game Club. We discuss the final portion of the game, and end with our impressions of the overall narrative.

Freelancer Tyler Barber joins the regular Rebel FM crew to discuss the games we've been playing. After that the crew discusses a host of topics selected by our users, and concludes with a few of your letters.

After a longer break than we anticipated, we're back with Episode 3 in our continuing probe of H.P. Lovecraft's darkest nooks and crannies. We also find time to squeeze in a rundown of our 5 nominees for our next series for Game Club. Give the show a listen, leave your comments for the last episode of this series (remember we're playing through to the end this time), and vote for the game you want to play for next time!

This week the normal crew is joined by Patrick Klepek and Jonathan Mann, AKA GameJew. We talk about what we've been playing, then move on to a conversation about music in games. Features "The Lizard Wizard," and "Shigeru Miyamoto" by Sr. Mann.

And this weeks episode was so well planned. Please join the usual crew of Anthony Gallegos, Arthur Gies, and Philip Kollar and our special guests Tyler Barber and Robert Ashley as we demonstrate exactly how off-topic a video game podcast can get! This weeks music is courtesy of Death From Above 1979(Romantic Rights), Evergreen Terrace (Chaney Can't Riff Quite Like Helmet), and The Pains of Being Pure at Heart (Young Adult Friction).

This is probably why there was never any alcohol consumed during GFW Live.

Hello all, and welcome to Volume Two of our Rebel FM Game Club series on Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth. This week, we played through to the end of The Escape From Innsmouth section of the game, and next week we'll be playing through to the end of the Boat Sequence. 

Nick bids farewell to the Rebels as he heads off to a new job, freelancer Tyler Barber stops by for a discussion on "Mature" content in games --  and all that implies -- and impressions are shared of F.E.A.R. 2, GTA: Lost and Damned, flower, and more.

We kick off Backlog 2.0 -- Rebel FM Game Club -- with the first few hours of Call of Cthulu, up to the "sewers" section. Next week, we'll be playing through the "escape from Innsmouth" portion.

This week we're joined by WhatTheyPlay's John Davison and MTV Multiplayer's Patrick Klepek, to give impressions of Halo Wars, Killzone 2, Fallout 3 DLC, and more, discuss the casual/hardcore gamer divide, and answer a few letters in which what is yours is replaced with prizes.

Our usual cast of house cats are joined by Area 5.tv's Ryan O'Donnell and Jay Frechette, along with freelancer Kat Bailey. We discuss the Dawn of War II Beta, RE5, and Afro Samurai, before getting into an epic debate about the nature of shooters (featuring Half-Life and Killzone 2). And, yes, we finally select the first Backlog 2.0 game, along with some listener letters.

This week we're joined once again by Area 5's Ryan O'Donnell and Matt Chandronait to discuss what we've all been playing, share our thoughts on narrative in gaming, and explore the heights of sarcasm (in invoice form).

This week we're joined by Geekbox.net's Ryan Scott and Italy's Giancarlo Varanini, as we discuss what we've been playing recently, the ups and downs of the reviews process, and answer some more letters from a recently closed magazine. And stick around for a very thorough shout-out to those who have helped us thus far.

Episode two finds us feelin' fine, as special guests Shane Bettenhausen (who tells us where the hell he's headed to work next) and Andrew "Skip" Pfister (King of All 'Casts) join us to reminisce about our best/worst 1UP/EGM memories, and chat about our favorite games of last year. Infinite thanks for all the support, and thanks Karen for the logo!

Join Nick Suttner, Philip Kollar, Matt Chandronait, Ryan O'Donnell, Jade Kraus and Arthur Gies for talk of the recent 1UP debacle, what they've been playing, and a taste of things to come.
