DualShockers ShockCast Episode 7

With the release of Final Fantasy XIII this week – and the plethora of God of War III reviews that have been tossed out by major publications, things have been a bit… well, a bit hectic, I would say. With Senior Contributing Editor Chad Awkerman frantically shaking like a heroin addict going through withdrawal for Final Fantasy XIII, and my eyes bleeding from all the God of War III I’ve been playing, this podcast is filled with the controversial reviews that both games have been receiving, and our very own opinions on how we have, so far, perceived these games from a personal perspective.

DualShockers ShockCast Episode 6 Feat. HipHopGamer

Welcome to the DualShockers ShockCast episode six – where joining myself (Yaris Gutierrez), Joel Taveras, Al Zamora, Chad Awkerman and Evan Velez is the renown king of controversy himself, HipHopGamer, as we discuss last week’s God of War III event that was held in Los Angeles, California. Both Evan and HipHopGamer attended the event first hand and, with HipHopGamer getting hands-on time with both the game and the developers of Santa Monica Studios, engage in an exciting, detailed conversation about the upcoming glorified PlayStation 3 exclusive which has everyone in the industry desperate for its release.

DualShockers ShockCast Episode 5

This ShockCast was filled with absolute hatred for our Senior Contributing Writer Evan Velez. But before you even begin to ponder how we can hate such an awesome individual, we have more than enough reasons to do so – and it has something to do with Evan getting to play God of War III before all of us… that dirty, dirty man.

This week’s podcast features the oh-so sexy voices of myself, Joel Taveras, Chad Awkerman, and Al Zamora. What happened to Evan? Oh, as stated above, he’s up and about attending a Sony event in Los Angeles which entitles him to play a bunch of Sony games coming up which, of course, includes the almighty exclusive God of War III. Evan… we sincerely hate you like Ugandan women hate eating Lung fish. Evan’s escapades at the Sony even will be discussed in next week’s ShockCast where he will also answer any questions you guys pitched on his post.

DualShockers ShockCast Episode 4

Welcome to ShockCast episode four. This week’s concoction of voices in the podcast were the very familiar sounds of Joel Taveras, Evan Velez, Al Zamora, Chad Awkerman, Ctrlaltkill.org’s Editor-In-Chief Andrew Espejo, and yours truly.

Like everything you would expect out of a game-related podcast, this podcast is filled with conversation about… well, gaming. We discuss Mass Effect 2’s candidacy as being game of the year, as some have already predicted. We also go into discussion regarding the possibility of a Splinter Cell: Conviction port coming to the PS3, and whether or not Ubisoft will indeed keep the new installment to the series on the Xbox 360. I don’t want to ruin the entire ShockCast for everyone, so listen in and hear us ridicule each other, and engage in conversation everything gaming related that’s been going on for the past week in news. Enjoy, people!
