Quest for GC: Behind the Scenes, Part 4
Posted by Rockjaw in Community, Jobsworth, MMO-related on September 1st, 2008
This post, in case anyone’s confused, was started on 27th August – long after the last episode was released. So excuse me while I excavate my memory to talk about the filming of episodes 7 and 8…. Read the rest of this entry »
Quest for GC: Behind the Scenes, Part 3
Posted by Rockjaw in Community, Jobsworth, MMO-related on August 30th, 2008
Now this is where it gets complicated. Why? Because we started to shoot out of sequence, that’s why…
Episode 5: Looking forward to…
This was supposed to be an easy episode. In fact, it was supposed to be the throwaway, edited quickly, filler episode between other episodes – hell, it was practically supposed to be a clip show. (Hmm. Could I do a clip show? Very possibly….)
Brief was simple; loads of people who are going to the Games Convention telling us what they’re most looking forward to. In one word. Or one sentence. Or one paragraph just please don’t monopolise the camera as there are others who need to be part of this thing thank you.
So I gave the camera to Spaff and off he went. On his first pass, when I downloaded the footage, I couldn’t help but notice something.

Quest for GC: Behind the Scenes, Part 2

Okay, here we go with Part the Second of my look into the hellish, never-ending… ermm… fun experience I’m in right now called Quest for GC. Nah, it’s all good. Just busy. (I won’t go over the chronology stuff again… suffice to say I’m writing this contemporaneously. At least, I think that’s the right word….) Read the rest of this entry »
Four – no, five new podcasts
Posted by Rockjaw in Links of Others, MMO-related, Pimpin' on August 27th, 2008
In the heady rush of content from Games Convention, you may have missed that we slung out four new episodes of the Official NCE podcast. All of them were recorded live off stage, so you’ll find that there’s German and English in there (translations from the crowd to the stage, and then back).
As well as myself yabbering about getting into games, we also have the Aion community team, Izzy and Mike from ArenaNet and Tom Potter from Destination Games to listen to. Pretty good line-up really. You can listen to all four of ‘em online, subscribe, get the MP3s etc all right here.
Credit goes out to Chris for editing these at real short notice.
I said five podcasts though… and the fifth is a new kid on the block. John AKA Shuttler of TabulaCast fame, along with his co-host Matt, have moved on from talking about Tabula Rasa to talking about everything superhero – whether it’s comics, movies or indeed City of Heroes. I expect we gave ‘em something to talk about yesterday.
Anyway their new ‘cast is called Limited Edition, although confusingly the site’s at yellowspandex.com (and yes, I get the reference). You can grab episode 1 right here, and subscribe through the usual methods.
Quest for GC: Behind the Scenes, Part 1
Posted by Rockjaw in Community, Jobsworth, MMO-related on August 26th, 2008
Right now, despite what this post is telling you, it’s July 22nd where I am. The Games Convention in Leipzig is just under a month away, and we just released Quest for GC – Episode 3: Languages.
If all goes according to plan, by the time you read this, we’ll have released all fourteen episodes.
Of course, I just need to make the other eleven, first….
You said what?
