SquadCast: Persona 3

It's the first of our irregular special side-mission podcasts today as we explore the world of teenagers pointing guns at their heads, the tarot and giant penises riding chariots. Yes, you read that correctly. Persona 3 is an incredibly long game – too long, perhaps, for a Squad main mission, so those of us who have played, finished (or "almost" finished) it decided to get together for a chat and a chin-stroke.

This podcast also features Beige and Pishu's report from PAX 08, our regular Personal Piles of Shame section and selections from the soundtrack of the game.

Featuring: Chris "RocGaude" Whittington, Mark "Beige" Whiting, Chris "Papapishu" Person and Pete "Angry_Jedi" Davison.

The Squadron of Shame SquadCast #7: Okami

Released today is the seventh episode of The Squadron of Shame SquadCast focusing on Clover Studios' beautiful game (poncey as it sounds, there really is no other way to describe it) Okami. Along the way we take in a lengthy journey into the depths of Papapishu's mind (fueled by Dance Mania and ADD meds), discuss why good is boring and evil is awesome (and Braid is either a work of art or emo bullshit) and delve into the "this could go on for months" territory of Eastern vs Western game design philosophy.

We also, as usual, discuss our personal piles of shame, including comment on Geometry Wars 2, Braid (twice), Soul Calibur IV, Star Control 2 (hold on, haven't we done that one already?), Siren: Blood Curse and, much to Pishu's disgust, EVE Online.

This episode features a triumvirate of hot Chris action, with Chrises "RocGaude" Whittington, "Iscariot83" Hernandez and "Papapishu" Person making an appearance, along with myself, Mark "Beige" Whiting, Tom "sinfony" Haley and George "Regulus Loves EVE" Kokoris.
