GameHounds

Have you noticed that the Humpdates have taken on the tone of a game show lately? The search for a new Humpdate host continues this week with Batchelor Number Three, listener Mr. Maynard from the great state of Missouri. Maynard and GamerEdie Sellers dish the dirt on the gaming industry with a host of news stories, including rumors that Metal Gear Solid 4 may be coming to the Xbox 360, the Endwar...

This week's episode is distinctively Ramen flavored. Yes, it's Tokyo Games Show week, and that means all the burning questions about video games have been answered. Yeah. Riiight. Instead, on many accounts, we're left with more information and, surprisingly, more questions than ever before. Edie Sellers and Cooper Hawkes discuss the biggest news from TGS and do their best to put it all in perspect...

These days, Humpdates are really like Mother Gump's proverbial box of chocolates. How's that for a metaphor? You see, GamerEdie Sellers is the chocolate covering -- she's creamy, sweet and you're not surprised it's there. This week, the mysterious filling is Marcus "Jazz" Corrin of 360Arcadians. Between the two of them, you have a satisfying treat. Edie and Jazz dish the gaming-industry dirt on th...

Ahhh. The GameHounds staff loves it when things get back to normal. Cooper Hawkes is back and drinking Southern Comfort, and Edie Sellers is sober and drinking water. Two great things that go great together, especially when it comes to a podcast. This week, Edie and Hawkes delve into a host of topics, including Alan Wake, the new Gears of War Zune, Sony's Tokyo Game Show debut rumors, how Bungie p...

It's the first Humpdate without Simon DI, so we're taking the old jalopy out for a spin with a new co-pilot. In an effort to show their love for listeners, the GameHounds staff decided to bring on a listener for a little live-action test driving of the Humpdate. This week, listener William Griffin brings his A-game to the podcast as he and Edie Sellers discuss the first half of this week's gaming...

We know, we're getting lazy. Actually we're not feeling very well tonight. And words are coming hard. Including show notes. So we'll keep it short. As you know, Hawkes is out this week, so BDazzler of Gamers Pub sits in. We talk about stuff. Lots of stuff. Like I said, words come hard. Just listen, damnit.

So much to talk about, so little time. It's Sunday night, and rather than boring you with details, let's cut to the chase. This week's episode features GamerEdie Sellers and Cooper Hawkes. Edie says something, Hawkes disagrees. Blah, blah, blah. We talk about Jasper, Life With Playstation, the Mass Effect movie, Bungie's big annoucement, Project Gotham Racing, LA Noire, and how much we hate the wo...

It's a sad day in GameHound land. This episode of the GameHounds Humpdate will be Simon DI's last time he'll appear as the regular co-host. It's a sad day, but the GamerEdie Sellers sends him off with a heartfelt, if not a tearful, adieu. And, of course, they also get into this week's gaming news. Lots to discuss, what with Sony throwing the Life with Playstation switch a hair early, rumors of Goo...

The GameHounds staff would love to go into a long explanation of this episode of GameHounds, but Rock Band 2 is loaded and they're *this* close to winning an Econoline van! So they'll just give you the quick and dirty. This week's contest prize: A copy of Spore. Last week's winner of the four-pack of t-shirts: Bodabo 420. Links? Uh yeah. Neither quick nor dirty, so they'll just have to wait for wh...

This is going to be weird. There's bad news and there's good news this week on the Humpdate. The bad news is that GameHounds' intrepid midweek show will suffer a loss in two weeks. Simon DI will be leaving as co-host due. He won't be leaving right off, however. GameHounds listeners will have a good-bye episode next week. This week, however, is Simon-free. It's also Hawkes-free and everybody-else f...

Welcome to a new week and a new episode of GameHounds Podcast. And welcome to the first week of LISTENER APPRECIATION MONTH, where GamerEdie Sellers and Cooper Hawkes give out all the great swag they got from GDC 08, E3 08 and PAX 08! On this week's episode, Edie and Hawkes discuss their usual stuff: Gaming and the video-game industry. And after Episode 31's discuss of the va-jay-jay, they also gi...

The GameHounds staff apologizes that the latest episode of Humpdate took an extra day to upload. The end of summer means new schedules, so they had to find the time between work and play. This week, GamerEdie Sellers and Simon DI of Cyberpunks Gaming Podcast bask in the afterglow of PAX and round up all the news of the week, including price drops for the Xbox 360 in North America and Japan, how to...

Penny Arcade Expo is one of the few gamer shows that is 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 (PSHRadio), Mrs. LeftyBrown (The Married Gamers), Z3ro9 (Squad XP), InfectedPB503 (XBLRadio), BDazzler (Gamers Pub) and Platform N...

Penny Arcade Expo is now 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 X3ro9 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! Sunday...

If you missed Platform Nation's live stream from Penny Arcade Expo on Friday, fret not. GamerEdie Sellers, who moderated the panel discussion, offers up to you the official replay of the show, originally broadcast on UStream. In addition, to KRockXP of the SquadXP, Lefty Brown of The Married Gamers, and Steve519 of Platform Nation join Edie and guests from Child's Play, Plantronics and Twisted Pix...

You people have no idea how difficult it is to get a podcast together while trying to pack for Penny Arcade Expo. GamerEdie Sellers and Simon DI (of Cyberpunks Gaming Podcast) hope you appreciate the lengths they go to in order to bring you this week's Humpdate. There's no time to do official links, but here's the overview: Edie and Simon discuss Castle Crashers and, well, crashing; Halo 4's rumor...

It only took six months for it to happen, but finally Cooper Hawkes and Edie Sellers broach the subject that you all think about, but none will talk about. What does Whoopi Goldberg call it? The va-jay-jay? But more importantly, they also discuss major news in the gaming world, not limited to rumors about Grand Theft Auto IV's DLC (including release date), more rumors about the Xbox 360 price drop...

Liepzig is here! Leipzig is here! And that means loads of news. This week Simon DI and Edie Sellers attempt to cover all the news that's coming out of Germany. They fail, but at least they try. They do hit some key annoucements, mostly concerning Sony's plans for the future and release dates for Fallout 3, LittleBigPlanet and a host of anticipated titles. But don't think that Leipzig news is the o...

Look. Here's the deal. It's almost 3 a.m. Pacific time, which means you East Coast GameHounds listeners are just waking up and wanting to update your MP3 players. So we're not going to delay this posting by staying up and writing show notes tonight. We'll just cut to the chase. Hawkes is out this week due to a pinched nerve, so instead, GamerEdie Sellers hosts this show with a special guest, Bobby...

In this very special episode of GameHounds, Alex P. Keaton says goodbye to his sister Mallorie... Wait, that's not right. Sorry. Channeling 80s sitcoms again. In this very special episode of GameHounds, Edie Sellers and Cooper Hawkes welcome a guest host, Mrs. LeftyBrown of podcast. They talk about dead celebrities and colored poo. No really. That part's true. Really. Stop laughing. When not expla...

Welcome, gentle listeners, to the Humpdate. It's a new month, and just two days away from "perfect cube day" (08-08-08), we bring you Edie Sellers and Simon DI chatting up this week's developments in gaming news. It's a weird week. The post-E3 wave of information is tapering off to a gentle stream. Nothing that stirs up the bottom too much, but valuable nonetheless. Topics and links (which you sho...

Second trimester? Wait, who's pregnant. Nobody, but as we celebrate the six-month anniversary of the GameHounds Podcast, it occurs to us that this little baby of ours is entering it's last three months before it becomes a human being. In otherwords, this podcast spawn is almost ready to be considered "fully functioning." Oh, let's not kid ourselves, this thing will always be a little half-baked, a...

Simon is back! Okay, so he didn't get much of a tan down in Mexico, but he does return to the Humpdate ready to chat about the latest in gaming news. In addition, he offers some insight into gaming south of the border. Let's just say, if you wanna feel like a rock god, head south with your mediocre Rock Band skillz. We reguarly only think of the gaming world being Asia, North America and Europe. T...

Sorry this got to you on Monday rather than Sunday. When we finally finished editing this ultra-long episode, Edie was exhausted and needed sleep. But there was quite a lot for Hawkes and Edie to talk about this week. And, with Hawkes now able to freely use his filthy mind and mouth with freedom, it felt like old times. ... good times. This week, Edie and Hawkes catch up on the rest of gaming news...

Never in our wildest dreams did we think that we'd have to bleep so much of our "clean" podcast... Simon DI is out of town, sunning himself down in Mexico way, so Cooper Hawkes steps in this week to discuss the post-E3 gaming news. It was all going so well until Edie mentions Wii Music, and then all heck broke loose. Let's just say Hawkes went into a fit of obscenities that would make George Carli...
