The XBLRadio Show

Exclusive Ninjatown and Fallout 3 Q and A! Penny Arcade Expo is one of the few gamer shows that seems too short. Platform Nation was there at the final day of PAX 2008 to witness the final wind-down of this huge event. GamerEdie Sellers was joined by a host of other Platform Nation hosts, including Chiahippo (Platform Nation), Mrs. LeftyBrown (The Married Gamers), X3R0 9 (XBLRadio), InfectedPB503 (XBLRadio), BDazzler (Gamers Pub) and Platform Nation’s fearless leader, Steve519. This panel discussion of the final day’s events also includes an impressive array of guests. Todd Howard, creative director of Bethesda’s Fallout 3, reveals a bunch of details about the game and fearlessly answers a half-hour of constant questions from the panel and the live chat-room audience. Shawn Smith of Ninjatown also gets peppered with tons of questions about the upcoming DS game and what it’s like to go from being a game journalist to a game developer. Finally Jeff Pobst, CEO of Hidden Path, talks about their upcoming tower-defense game, Defense Grid: The Awakening. He also gets very candid about Microsoft’s certification process and offers up insight about the development industry from a CEO’s viewpoint.

Penny Arcade Expo was in full swing, and Platform Nation was there to bring you live coverage. On day two, Edie Sellers, BDazzler (of Gamers Pub), Cephiros (writer for Platform Nation), InfectedPB503, and X3r0 9 made the day special with interviews and impressions of games they’d seen… and those they didn’t see. Guests include Hudson Games and Trixie360 of Gamerscore Blog. Check it out! By the way, the recording jumps in about five minutes into the show, as the engineer forgot to start recording at the beginning of the show.

Join us this week as we talk about Wookies and games. During this slow news week, this show is mostly outtakes. Please enjoy. ++Sony and Microsoft agree ++Fable 2 info ++Mass hysteria
