| Daily Game Addiction - June 27, 2008 | Really bottom of the barrell today. Seems not to be a lot of “need to know” news. Just a lot of game information and PAX information. (HINT: Something I said will be in the questions for GAH this week.)

| Game Addict Hotline - Episode 100 | WOW, 100 shows. It’s amazing that I got here. I thought I would get here in January this month but better late than never. Sorry about the bad audio first off. I am moving back to my parents home for the summer and I moved my equipment and recorded in a empty room. I’ll fix it for the Daily Game Addiction. Please comment on the shows so I can see how I’m doing. I am flying blind when I get zero comments about the show. Thanks again for listening and hope we’ll have fun with the next 100 shows.

| Game Addict Hotline - Episode 99 | I’m back but still a little rusty in my podcasting skills. Things have gone well with me as I just picked up my bachelors degree and starting to move back home. Too bad I need to find jobs to help out for my trip to China. Oh, did I forget to tell you all that I’m going to China? It isn’t till September but I really am looking forward to it. Enough about me, let’s get to what you want, video game trivia.

| Game Addict Hotline - Episode 98 | I’m struggling to get the shows out due to school and work, once again. I was out of school last week and should be in my last semester. This is a lot of awesomeness right now. I’m going to get a degree and now have to fight for my money and pay off my debts. Hopefully I’ll do that with no problem. Anywho, I accidentally made the show in Mono. It’s ok, my voice is mono anyway. I’ll be adding PC sales next show.

| Game Addict Hotline - Episode 97 | Yes, Yes, Yes. I’m late by a full week. I’m sorry but school and the new gig is going to push the podcast farther and farther back. I have been busy as a bee and this week is no different even with a day off. I’m going to continue to work hard and keep making it go. (Don’t even ask me about XPlatform.) Anyway, things are well and if you are interested in the new gig, it’s live and at CasualConnect.org. Check it out and email me what you think. I’m totally happy with it and what it will acomplish.

| Game Addict Hotline - Episode 96 | I’m back for another big year of gaming. This is a big year for me. I’m ending college and starting to get a real job, hopefully making a bigger name for myself in the gaming world, and hopefully I will date a girl. We’ll have a XPlatform show being recorded and so I’m hoping I can keep the podcast rolling. *Sorry about it being late. Got sick and been super tired this week.*

| Game Addict Hotline - Episode 95 | So I’m back for now and praying that I can keep this up. Only problem I’ve been having is trying to get this out before Mondays. Today: Friday. Family is here for the holidays meaning Wii tournaments and tons of Wii Sports. I love this time as I get all the family here and I enjoy the excitement in the house between my siblings and their loved ones and kids. Hope you are having a great holiday season. Hope you get better Tom.

| Game Addict Hotline - Episode 94 | Addiction is an interesting thing that people ask me about a lot because of the name of the show. It’s something I will have to write on someday and have some information about it. The thing about addiction is that it usually is second to video game violence in worries people have about it. Too bad no one says the same about other forms of entertainment. Cause I know a few model boat in a bottle addicts that really need to get some help.

| Game Addict Hotline - Episode 93 | I love TV. Conan O’Brien, Robot Chicken, Simpsons, Family Guy, etc. It’s funny that people can say there isn’t anything on TV. I could agree with that if we were just talking about TV in the United States. The great thing about the internet and this whole global community thing is getting a chance to see TV in Britan, Japan, China, Australia, and other nations of the world. There is a lot of great stuff. Of course the only problem with the television is that it takes up too much of my gaming time. Especially my Peggle time. Thank goodness I can listen to podcasts and play games at the same time.

| Game Addict Hotline - Episode 92 | Well, the PS3 has reached 1 Petaflop worth of activity for the Folding@home research and I found it sounded like Peda-flop and just reminded me how bad this show was. I made so many mistakes on this one. I hope you all can enjoy it and laugh at my sad attempt of a podcast this week. Anyway, no winner for last week and only one call in for our game addiction section. Please help a bro out and get involved.

| Xplatform Episode 9 - Packs of PAX | With Penny Arcade Expo over and so many new faces there, I thought I would do a XPlatform show to help everyone get a feel from what the journalists saw at the event.

On the show, we had:
Michael Zenke, editor of Slashdot Games and writer for MMOG Nation.
Nicholas Puleo, aka bapenguin, Editor-in-Cheif at Evil Avatar.
Flynn De Marco, Editor-in-Chief at Gay Gamer and writer for Kotaku.
I commented on Desteneer and the post at Destructoid in the podcast. Thankfully I still have the link.

| XPlatform Episode 5 | So this week I got it on time but I had a lot of spots that screwed up because of stupid Adobe Audition not keeping up with the audio. If some game maker is tossing out a computer with 1 gig of memory and a 2 GHZ processor, please send it over my way. I’ll give you a free plug cause I really need to upgrade. Anyway, I hope you enjoy the show.
