OSMcast: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness Ep. #1 6-27-2008

Thursday, June 26th, 2008

So how about that “On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness” stuff eh guys and gals?

Pretty good stuff! You should totally buy it. Or at least try the demo. You could also go buy Commando 3 on the XBLA while you’re at it so you can try the new SFII: HD Remix beta going on. Or Space Invaders Extreme!
I still cannot beat Level 4, but one day… ONE DAY!!!

I will triumph!

OSMcast: Kekkaishi 6-20-2008

Thursday, June 19th, 2008

In this episode we decided that box anime is cool. And by “box anime” we mean, “Kekkaishi.” Also, ice cream.

OSMnotes

Okay so admittedly I just beat MGS4, so at the moment I’m busy going “OMG MGS4 MGS4!!!!” therefore actual show notes aren’t exactly on my mind. Though I am sad to find out the Wal-Mart sale is apparently already over so… oops. Hopefully those of you out there will have already realized this deal and have bought one!

The rest of you should follow my lead and steal I mean borrow them from all your friends that just obtained those PS3s and play Metal Gear Solid 4 on them. I want to say that this new Metal Gear is good enough that you’ll want to buy a PS3 anyway, but I know that’s just the MGS fanboy in me and that overall the 360 is still
the better gaming system.

… Maybe.

Kekkaishi is also an awesome show and an even more awesome manga. You should go buy all of the manga now. They have 14 volumes so far out so you have plenty to catch up on!

Oh and email us (osmcast@gmailDOTcom), comment, voice mail, let us know you exist, the usual.

Metal Gear!!!

OSMcast: GTA IV 6-13-2008

Friday, June 13th, 2008

Are you read for some unbridled passion as two souls burn brightly about Grand Theft Auto the Fourth? Well too bad we’ve already recorded it!

OSMnotes

Though to be fair, we ended up playing Street Fighter III: Third Strike afterwards instead. Will there be another Inubito/Basil podcast about the upcoming Street Fighter TV once it releases? Oh yes. And who knows… since we only scratched the surface that is GTA IV, there may be another about GTA IV in the far flung future. For example if you wanted an in depth discussion on how Niko’s journey into America as an immigrant was portrayed in the game compared to how it is seen and actually is in America, well… We could do that.

Or we could talk about playing darts and going to strip clubs in the game. Whatever floats your boat.

And as always tell us about these things and your opinions in the comments section, send us an email (osmcast@gmailDOTcom), or throw down a voice mail our way!

inubito on aim: holy shit 52:07. lol
Basil on aim: NICE!
inubito on aim: wrd
Basil on aim: that’s just how we roll. lol
inubito on aim: True that.

OSMcast: Baccano! 6-07-2008

Tonight on the slightly delayed OSMcast! we talk about Baccano! And it’s many, many crazy characters.

OSMnotes

We also talk about Tokyopop’s current reshuffling as well as Rock Band’s attempt at taking over Japan.

But it’s mostly about Baccano(!).

And also beer.

But really Baccano(!).

In other news, we now have Promos! Check the sidebar to your right and check’em out!

Trivia: This is now our longest podcast! ZOMG.

Podcast delayed?!

Due to somewhat foreseen circumstances (Basil’s work schedule), we’ll actually be recording tonight and hopefully editing tomorrow.

I know this news may be hard to handle, but them’s the breaks kids.
