Swapgame / Mario Wii / Assassin’s Creed 2 This week we’re privileged to interview Marc Day; CEO and founder of Swapgame.com We discuss the ups and downs of game rental by post and how over the years it’s expanded to a successful trade-in plan. Tony and I have both used Swapgame for a long time now and can honestly  recommend it to all our listeners in the UK. After that Tony talks Mario Wii and Alex discusses Assassin’s Creed 2 in-depth after a week each of hard gaming. Find out if the worlds most famous plumber lives up to the rose-tinted memories of his 2D era peak, and if Ubisoft can deliver another killer blow. The music at the end of the show is Jonathan Coulton, whom Tony and I (along with Plex, Lizz and Sharon) saw live in London for the second time this year last week. The song is about cybernetic enhancements and is called “Better”. Many many thanks to Marc for the interview.

Story and Narrative in Games / Batman: Arkham Asylum We welcome back Daniel Floyd to the show. YouTube legend and animated lecturer Mr Floyd makes for a fantastic conversational guest, bringing his insight and clarity to the show, which this week is about the way story, script and narrative have progressed in the thirty year history of video games. We reach some surprising conclusions about the nature of interactivity and how far we’ve come when held against movies and literature. The competition segment in the middle explains how you listeners can get your mitts on a MAG beta download code (this immediately afterwards expanded into a full ten available codes so get cracking PS3 owners), with the winners to be announced next week. A Digital Cowboys MAG game night will be on the cards. This is all part of a massive 128 code giveaway brought to you by Platform Nation. After that there’s a full dedicated 40-minute review of Batman: Arkham Asylum. We leave no stone in Batman’s grim and gothic world unturned exploring this surprisingly high quality comic-book license. There’s a spoiler section at the very end with full warning so those playing know when to spin on. At the close there’s more music from Jonathan Coulton, a song which as it so happens was on one of the very first podcasts Alex ever took part in. (It wasn’t Digital Cowboys, it was Joinee Radio episode #21 – 22/04/2007 DC completists may like to check that one out and thus pay their respects to the man who taught me how to podcast; Mr Matt Fowler.) Daniel Floyd can be found at his blog: Talking About These. And definitely check out his series of YouTube lectures, especially the one that tonight’s subject is based on: Video Games and Storytelling. Jonathan Coulton’s site also features a comprehensive MP3 store. As always, we heartily recommend you take a listen to a few of his songs. There is a bit of poor sound quality at Tony’s end for the first half, our apologies, and it does get better for the Batman section. We’ll try to make sure this doesn’t happen again. Next week: The guys from Big Red Potion and we review Beatles Rock Band.

The Married Gamers talk some more about PAX and the good times they had. Also this episode they talk to Chris Foster, Lead Designer at Harmonix, about The Beatles Rock Band. In addition Chris & Kelly chat with Aaron Trites, Associate Community Manager at Harmonix, about LEGO Rock Band. All this plus Rock Band Minute, Game of the Week, and the results of a special contest. Click on the Married Gamers logo to listen now!

This is an audio-only version of the Jonathan Coulton Interview with some of his music woven in to whet the appetites of those new to him and make it more special for his fans. We wanted to ensure that our subscribers had something good to listen to and we’re very proud of this. We’ll be back soon with a multi-host podcast as soon as Tony isn’t dying from (in his words) “Bionic Plague”. Seems somehow appropriate when interviewing a man so fixated on killer robots.
