POP Ep.60: The Holiday Blues (Voicemail line 713-893-8069)
This week Greg, Phil and Dan pick up CJ's slack. The boys suffer some early holiday blues as they realize most of the big game releases for '07 have come and gone. That doesn't shorten the Whatcha Been Playin' segment, however. Thrill to discussions …
POP Ep.59: Now With More SMSG and Vitamin 3DO (Voicemail line: 713-893-8069)
This week, we dust off our FZ-1s and take 'em for a cruise down memory lane. That's right, we're talkin' the 3DO REAL Interactive Multiplayer. Way of the Warrior, Gex, Samurai Shodown, Twisted, Zhadnost, Total Eclipse, Crash N' Burn and more. Trade…
POP Ep.58: Shot Heard 'Round the Internet (Voicemail: 713-893-8069)
This week, we talk a little bit about the implications of Gamespot supposedly firing Jeff Gerstmann over his review of Kane & Lynch. Also: we talk about some of the games we've been spending time with in the last week. Rock Band, Avatar: The…
POP Ep.57: Technical holiday (Voicemail line: 713-893-8069)
You're not hearing things, the audio quality on three of the four hosts in the first 40 minutes of this week's podcast is messed up. But there is a reason for it, which you'll soon find out about. Nevertheless, we soldiered on and ended up with an…
POP Ep.56: Live is Five-Ive
This week we talk Xbox Live. The beginning, the middle, and its glorious refinement into the service we now have on the Xbox 360. From XSN Sports to Xbox Originals, we discuss various points in Live's history and go over our favorite/least-liked…
POP Ep.55: Plumbers Don't Wear Ties (Voicemail line: 713-893-8069)
In honor of this week's release of Mario Galaxy, we spend the second segment of this episode talking about Mario games. From Super Mario Bros. on the NES to his latest adventure in space, Mario has been a mainstay in gaming since the '80s--and one…
POP Ep.54: Axes to grind (Voicemail line: 713-893-8069)
Two segments this week. The first is a rather long (nearly an hour) discussion on the games we played this week. That includes such games as Guitar Hero III, Viva Pinata Party Animals, The Simpsons Game, Ratchet & Clank Future, Portal, Bleach…
POP Ep.53: It's not easy seeing green (Voicemail line: 713-893-8069)
This week we turn our eyes towards Nintendo's original, black and white (or is that green and...lighter green) Game Boy. The portable that was too large for a pocket may not have had the graphical oomph of its competition, but the Game Boy sure…
POP Ep.52: The Other 51 Were Just Practice (Voicemail line: 713-893-8069)
It's a special One-Year Anniversary episode of the Player One Podcast this week. We've got all the usual plus an extended chat about Capcom's slate of retro remakes, a rundown of the news that caught our eyes last week, and lots and lot of other…
POP Ep.51: Up Yaris (Voicemail line: 713-893-8069)
There's a fine line between a good game and complete crap. Last week saw the release of Yaris on Xbox Live Arcade. Our stance on it...pretty clear. Game of the YEAR. OK, not really. It's not even terribly effective as an advergame. Take a listen to…
POP Ep.50: Like Phantoms through the Hourglass (Voicemail line: 713-893-8069)
Here it is, our 50th episode. Amazed that we've lasted this long on such a regular basis? So are we. This week we've got a super-sized Game Tape Impressions segment where we talk about such new releases as The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass,…
POP Ep.49: More money than sense (Voicemail line: 713-893-8069)
This week is the episode of flubbed/bombed segues, mispronunciations and Game Fuel buildup. Oh, and Halo 3. Yes, we talk about that a little bit too. No story spoilers here, so fear not (we didn't play much single player or co-op this week). And if…
POP Ep.48: Waiting for Master Chief (Voicemail line: 713-893-8069)
Don't worry, there are no Halo 3 spoilers in this episode (in case you were wondering). In the run-up to Tuesday's mega-launch of the most anticipated game of the year, we spend this episode talking about other, less Master Chief-y games, go over…
POP Ep.47: Land of the Shawnimals (Voicemail line: 713-893-8069)
This week we welcome ex-Electronic Gaming Monthly editor and Shawnimals creator Shawn Smith to the program for 90 minutes of chatting about games, ye olden days of EGM, and what it's like to leave a video game magazine, start a line of designer…
POP Ep.46: Fanboy Logic (Voicemail line: 713-893-8069)
Admit it. You're biased. You have likes, dislikes, loves, hates, etc. And we jump into that a bit this week as we talk about fanboy logic -- the propensity to defend something you own/like even when that position is indefensible or seemingly…
