In comics, we’ve got some single issue talk and then a discussion on comic book character “reincarnations.” Then, in games, we talk about the (literally) big announcements from Privateer Press on day one of TempleCon and move into a talk about when games hit “overkill” for our personal tastes.

With the new year we’ll be adding a few tweaks to the show, so we always welcome input! This time out we talk about anything that comes to mind. Seriously. Anything. From stupid Christmas songs to Mayan doomsday. Basically, each year we all have to work at the store on Christmas Eve, so we just have our Christmas party at the same time. Some food, some games, etc. All we did here was turn on the mics for part of the conversation. Welcome behind the curtain. It’s all just a puppet show now!

LXG Episode 117: Thankscomics. (Comics) Happy Thanksgiving! Matt and Darren sit down to record a holiday edition of the show talking about a few trade collections that we’ve been enjoying. We focus in on three titles this time out and we highly recommend all of them. First up is Skull-Kickers from Image, which has two volumes of sword and sorcery insanity out. Next is FreakAngels from Avatar Press, with all six volumes being out to complete this post-apocalyptic-steam-punk-psychic-parable-for-early-twenties-post-slackers storyline. Finally, we talk Locke & Key from IDW, one of the creepiest and most well-written stories with incredibly rich detail that literally opens doors to your fantasies and nightmares.

LXG Episode 116: The Lake House. (Games) After a false start that you (thankfully) will miss out on, Danny, Jeff, and Matt get down to talking about “Domination.” It’s the new HORDES book from Privateer Press. In this one we cover half of the new material. As there’s 5 factions (I know, Minions aren’t a faction, but they have their own section and get coins now with tourney events, so deal with it) we talk about two and a half of them: the Trollbloods, the Skorne, and the Farrow. It looks like everyone’s after an Anthanc....except the Trolls, who just want you off their lawn. Intro and outro is “Iko Iko” by by some half-assed karaoke group. Enjoy!

LXG Episode 115: Free digital download included with this podcast. (Comics) It’s a comic book episode this week and after so many weeks with a focus on DC, we actually end up with an all-Marvel show this time out. (Soon, an all-Indie show.) We start off with some news from Marvel involving their new digital initiative and speculate on what it could lead to, then move on to some issues that we’ve really enjoyed over the past couple of weeks. Next week, a game-based show. Maybe 40K, maybe Warmachine/Hordes. Maybe both! New releases all around and we’re getting our hands dirty.

We’re actually taking a look at a couple of board games this time around, broken up with a bit of 40K talk. Speaking of 40K, we start with a letter from Imagine and his doings at the Feast of Blades. Check out www.feastofblades.com to get the whole story. First up, we FINALLY take a look at Settlers of Cattan, one of those evergreen board game titles that’s certainly a best seller in our store. Next, we check in with Kyle on how he’s doing getting back into 40K and practicing for an upcoming tourney in December. Finally, we talk about Cargo Noir, another board game with a lot of character and a cool design. So, does either game have the replay value? Are their racist overtones? FIND OUT BY LISTENING!

No there wasn’t a show last week, but that’s because I’d rather not put out a show than put out a steaming turd pile. Maybe I was wrong on that, but we move on. We celebrate birthdays and other life-changing events before jumping into comics this time around. Next week, a game-based show, I swear to you! Yes, we know it’s been far too long since we’ve had one, so it WILL happen. IT. WILL. Intro and outro is “Save it for Later” by English Beat. Enjoy!

We’re still working on that. This is all gearing up to us jumping into a Malifaux league kicking off next week, so you’ll be hearing some more soon.

LXG Episode 100: Late Like a Period. You Are Attracted to Us! (Movie Review and Comics) AAAAAAAWWWWWWWWW YEAH!!! Here we go, Episode 100 is finally here! After losing all our audio files, having the computer we record on fail, and a litany of other shit go wrong, we get back on the horse one more time than we got thrown off to get this to you. We have battle wounds. Chicks dig scars, right? So we start off by opening up a gift from our friend Roy (Buma from Kawaii Kon) and can’t believe the level of awesome it possesses. Next, our audio fails before we can talk about movies, which we launch into after the “break,” as well as the big news as of late in both comics and games. Also, since this is Episode 100, I’ll be contacting several of you about winning our “Shameless Marketing Prize!” So look for us in your spam folder, I guess.

LXG Episode 082: SHEPHERD'S PIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEE!!! (Malifaux) …gonna bake you in Hell tonight! This episode we do an LXG intro to the skirmish game Malifaux. With two rulebooks out and an almost infinite combination of tactics, we set up this show to introduce people to a bit of the rules and fluff. Make no mistake, we’re not experts, but we’re working on it! Since Matthew is the only Malifaux player of the Geeks, we have Matt and Jeff in the studio to help with the conversation and Darren’s here to keep it all in line with a WTF perspective. [00:00:32] Shepherd’s Pie – fact or fiction? We talk music. [00:09:47] Intros. TEN MINUTES IN. Ridiculous. [00:11:55] emails! Let us show you them. [00:16:22] Malifaux: First Impressions, The Checklist of Awesome. [00:22:22] Malifaux: Story, Fluffer Nutter. [01:04:00] Malifaux: The Rules, When the Dice Have Abandoned You. [01:22:04] Malifaux: The Greenhorn League, Now Featuring Women. [01:29:45] Malifaux: Listener Email, What’s Your Style? [01:43:27] Next Week and Don’t Be That Guy. Next week: COMIC BOOKS (a hodgepodge from the past month up through January 11th.) Shoot us an email or comment on our facebook page to be part of the discussion!

LXG Episode 066: Critical Tow. For the first time ever, we talk RPGs on the show! Well, one RPG specifically, as we’ve decided to dip our toes into the waters of D&D 4e. We’re joined by part of our gaming group on this episode. Jeff (who’s been on before), his wife Jessica (newbie), and Matt (who, tied with Jeff, might be our most frequent guest) are all here, making for a crowded house and a lot of mic sharing. If the sounds of passing them around get irritating, sorry. We go into our game specifically, but also the nature of gaming groups as a whole. Can you guess who plays the Tiefling Warlock, the Dragonborn Bard, the Gensai Swordmage, the Eladrin Cleric, and the Dwarven Fighter? [00:00:58] Intros with guests. [00:02:43] We beg. Shamelessly. [00:03:45] ANOTHER parking rant. [00:06:44] Scott Pilgrim premiere. [00:28:49] D&D 4e. [01:15:52] DBTG: my car got towed. [01:27:45] Next Week and Outros. We’ll be taking next week off for Games Day at the store. We’ll be back with a story or two. Intro and outro is Sex Bob-bom’s “Threshold.” As always, you can take part in what’s going on by getting in touch with us at the usual places. Also, some iTunes reviews would be greatly appreciated; it helps our little community reach beyond Hawaii! lxg@imakereality.com http://lxg.imakereality.com www.imakereality.com www.twitter.com/imakereality http://imakereality.wordpress.com Thanks again for listening, LXG yes no http://media.podcastingmanager.com/9/1/1/9/6/179676-169119/Media/LXG_Ep_066.mp3?ref=rss Fri, 20 Aug 2010 04:09:00 GMT 01:28:56 hawaii, geek, gamers, nerd, RPG, roll playing games, Scott Pilgrim league of extraordinary geeks.

LXG Episode 050: Baby's First Luau The last week and a half has been plagued with computer viruses and the kind of work that pays, so here’s the first of two (maybe more) shows we’ll be posting this week! It’s been a year since we started this little venture called the LXG, and to celebrate, we couldn’t think of a damn thing. There have been some great audience suggestions, but logistically, we couldn’t pull of any of them. So we took the cheap route and invited on the legendary “Beez,” a friend and former co-worker at the store who was originally going to be part of the LXG cast. He lives in New York now, so three cheers for “Free Nights and Weekends” plans and moderate insomnia. We take a walk down memory lane, a walk up memory lane, marry Veronica then Betty, and compare notes on the gaming/geek communities. Honestly, we recorded this episode for ourselves and to catch up with a good friend, so hopefully you come along for the ride. Intro is the “Hawaii 5-0” theme, and outro music is “Martini Five-O” from The Blue Hawaiians (on the “Tao of Steve” soundtrack). As always, you can take part in what’s going on by getting in touch with us at the usual places.

LXG Episode 043: Man-gina Monologues. It’s all Marvel this week as we talk comics on a Valentine’s Day show! Kyle’s out and as he’s the only one in a relationship, we can only share stories about V-Day being crap and Matt’s journey to the Vagina Monologues. Also, since Kyle’s not in, we take this opportunity to completely trash him with sister-humper jokes. [00:01:12] Oh yeah, it’s Valentine’s Day. [00:03:47] Intros. We’re a three-legged dog watching “Blade: Trinity.” [00:07:27] Vagina Monologues. [00:13:35] “Hit-Monkey.” The transition makes sense, trust me. [00:22:49] “Strange” mini-series wraps up. [00:33:47] “Amazing Spider-Man” continues the “Gauntlet” with Mysterio. [00:48:06] “Seige” #2 rocks socks. [01:14:18] “Wolverine Weapon X” is about an old man getting LOTS of tail. [01:19:23] “Ultimate X” might make us not hate a child of Wolverine. [01:27:05] Other comic-type news. [01:30:50] Listener emails and SuperBowl commercials. [01:40:26] Outros. Intro and outro music is “Obsessed With You” by The Orion Experience. As always, you can take part in what’s going on by getting in touch with us at the usual places.

LXG Episode 005: Hand Check! Kawaii Kon. Just saying the words can invoke the images of purple-haired vixens in exotic slit-to-there dresses…or dumpy fat guys who think it’s funny to dress as pre-teen schoolgirls. Either way, we’re here to recap our experiences at Honolulu’s only major convention centered on anime/manga and their related media and games. NOTE: We all totally support Kawaii Kon, but everyone gets to be teased on this show. Especially Kyle. We also brought in our friend Joel to discuss the Kon and desperately try to segue that into the local forum site he owns/operates (www.hawaiigamers.net) under the guise of helping to grow the community. Music for this episode is from the Six Mix Girls by TsuShiMaMiRe, the band we saw performing on Saturday night during the Kon. Here’s the breakdown: [00:00:00] We beg you to contact us. [00:00:19] A sample of TsuShiMaMiRe’s Sleepy Dreamy Marshmallow. [00:00:33] Introductions are made, dreams are shattered. [00:01:27] Kawaii Kon: “WTF?!” and other first impressions. [00:06:11] Cosplay: for better or worse. [00:22:10] We tried to demo a game, but got out dorked by a hot chick. [00:27:55] Danny’s a web star, so where’s his muthafuckin’ movie check? [00:29:06] Kawaii Kon is getting bigger every year. [00:33:07] Trannies as cosplayers. Thoughts? [00:35:19] Time for the “Hentai Movie Block.” Hand Check! [00:51:09] TsuShitMaMiRe’s concert: an Itty Bitty Metalfest. [00:57:10] Sunday, the day of rest and a slow Kon. [00:58:53] Kyle’s a douche, Stan Sakai is a saint. [01:05:07] HGNet, our local community forum. www.hawaiigamers.net [01:15:06] Next Week looks to be Warmachine MKII [01:16:19] Don’t Be That Guy and Goodbye [01:19:01] A sample of TsuShiMaMiRe’s Hyper Sweet Power. [01:19:30] A dramatic reading of the lyrics of TsuShiMaMiRe’s Hyper Sweet Power. Hope you like it and if you were at Kawaii Kon and horribly offended, we invite you on to hear your side of things. Especially Pikachu.
