ExplicitPixel Apocalypse Podcast: Episode 67 "Empty Servers And Error 37" | Diablo 3 launched this week to tons of hype and expectations. Like any good PC game of this generation, launch day was balls due to the now infamous Error 37. EA and Bioware reported a 25% subscriber drop in their story driven MMORPG Star Wars: The Old Republic. Are we witnessing the fall of yet another Star Wars MMO? Can Bioware pull what is essentially a 300 million dollar single player game back from the brink? 38 Studios is looking for yet another hand out from the state of Rhode Island as they are having trouble paying their bills, let alone their employees. And we thought that an ex-baseball player/tea party mouth piece wouldn't make a good video game company CEO... | 5/21/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

ExplicitPixel Apocalypse Podcast: Episode 64 "The Meeting That Never Happened" | On this week’s episode of the Pixel Apocalypse Podcast, Nathan and Alex discuss the much talked about (and apparently fictional) meeting between Gabe Newell and Apple. The boys speculate on what a possible partnership between these two heavy weights could mean for the industry. Bethesda delays Prey 2 beyond 2012 effectively sealing the game fate. The reason for the delay, quality issues... So Prey 2 isn’t up to snuff, but Skyrim was a shining example of quality control...right Bethesda. Call of Duty might be on the decline as sales of Modern Warfare have dipped in recent months. Is the casual audience turning away from the juggernaut franchise and finding their entertainment elsewhere? Sony finally confirms the next God of War! Can Kratos reclaim his place as king of the hack & slash, or has this franchise seen it’s best days... | 4/23/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Customer Reviews
A New Fan
I really enjoy the show, it's really not for the faint of heart though. Looking forward to the E3 shows!
A Tangent Here and There, but a great listen
Nathan and Earl go off on quite a few tangents durring these shows, but it's never dull. Each episode is worth a listen and will usually help you kill a morning with some laughs.
Shooting the Sh!t in VideoGame Land
A bunch of down-to-earth guys who know their stuff! Podcasts are entertaining as well as informative, and the casual nature of the Nathan and Co. is a refreshing change from other podcasters who try too hard or are pretentious. What;s really impressive is the website, though. Allegedly-Speaking.com. Awesome.
