PS Uni Underground Radio 017: The Basement Dweller

PSUni — Sat, 12 May 2012 05:14:04 GMT

(Author's Note: To those who downloaded the previous version of this episode, our apologies. Due to a weird recording glitch, one of our tracks ended up shorter than the others and did match up. But after match editing, the problem was corrected and we're good to go. Once again, our bad but please enjoy the show.)

Team PlayStation is back, and what a challenge they have this week!

Soul Sacrifice is coming for PS Vita. Is this the game that makes people buy a Vita, or will people turn their spinal cords into a sword to aviod it? BioShock Infinite has been delayed! Is this a yay or boo situation? Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD is coming. Will the skateboard controller work? No -- sorry, I just needed a sentence here.

Malcolm reviewed Awesomenauts. Did he like it, or was it it an Awesome-not? (PUNS!)

All this plus Malcolm and Tyler fight to the death over whether Final Fantasy VII is the same thing as Final Fantasy VII: Dirge of Cerebus this week... on Playstation University's Underground Radio!

PS Uni Underground Radio 016: Lord Zedd Attacks!

PSUni — Sun, 06 May 2012 16:56:47 GMT

Underground Radio has been invaded yet again, this time by our Number #1 fan, Reneid Klein! The dude was apparently so happy to be here, he forgot to write down some questions!

Join us as we take on PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale and throw out ideas for fighters in this highly anticipated exclusive. PSN has a new exclusive on the horizion called Unfinished Swan, and will the multiplayer in God of War: Ascension ruin this potentially awesome game? Stay tuned!

Plus we have a few articles out this week! Tyler gives his impressions on Dragon's Dogma, Malcolm reviewed the handy-dandy Xjacker Soniq Rush 2.0, and Tyler reviewed The Walking Dead: Episode 1.

PS Uni Underground Radio 015: Citizen Bad

PSUni — Sat, 28 Apr 2012 02:54:08 GMT

Team PS3 reunites with a special guest! Apparently, the fifteenth episode is about where you can have guests. On tonight's show, we welcome Travis Foster of Front Towards Gamer fame. Most importantly, he's a relative of WCW Superstar and future Hall of Famer Ice Train. And he gave the podcast its name, which I guess is cool.

In the news we cover Batman: Arkham City's GotY Edition and drool over "Harley's Revenge", Joe has an on air joygasm over news of a Rayman Origins sequel, and we talk about Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale (with Cheese). We also give Adam Sessler leaving G4 a poo out of 5, and talk tank controls for Bethesda's upcoming survival horror game.

Malcolm ended up reviewing Deadliest Warrior: Ancient Combat -- it's not good. Mostly, though, there's just lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of going off topic this week.

Running Time: 2:10:27

PS Uni Underground Radio 014: Animal Man

PSUni — Fri, 20 Apr 2012 02:13:52 GMT

So you can hear some birds on the show, because Malcolm moved into a new house with an annoying bird; whoops!

This week, the staff at Playstation University tackle on some epic stuff in the news. The Vita is getting a new game called Soul Sacrifice. IS it a Demon's Souls sequel? Thanks to South African retailer, Dead Space 3 may have been announced! How excited is everyone? Plus Sony releases a weird looking controller..... ah, so what else is new?

Let's see...I feel like I'm forgetting something...oh, yeah! God of War: Ascension! How does everyone feel, and why is Malcolm so pessimistic about it?

Finally, Malcolm went to Silent Hill. Well, he played Silent Hill: Downpour. What does Malcolm think about this one? Was this a return to form, or does it roll over the ledge?

All this, including Joe and Tyler making fun of Malcolm for getting his ass handed to him by Wendy Koopa in Super Mario Bros. 3. What a loser!

PSUni — Tue, 17 Apr 2012 04:18:05 GMT

Tyler's finally done moving, and the gang's all back together! And this time... it's personal. In the news, we tackle Sony's mysterious teaser for April 19th. What could it be? Is it God of War IV? Sony's Title Fight? LittleBigPlanet 3?! Joe also reminds everyone that he went to PAX East. Like, a lot. He discusses his adventures there, and a ton of upcoming games! He also got a chance to conduct a few interviews; check them out right here!

All this plus anime that Malcolm likes, Joe defends being a ruthless killer in Grand Theft Auto IV, and Tyler tells us how much furniture the movers stole from him, this week on Underground Radio!

PS Uni Underground Radio: PAX East 2012 Interview Special

PSUni — Sun, 15 Apr 2012 03:12:49 GMT

We have a special episode for you guys today. Our very own Joe Garcia made the trip to Boston and touched down in a little show called PAX East 2012! Armed with a voice recorder and a mission, he took on some of the best of the video game industry.

First, Joe interviews Camille Guermonprez, founder of Arkedo. Camille and his team are behind the new game Hell Yeah!, a story about a bunny prince of darkness who gets caught having relations with a rubber duckie and swears revenge. I can't make this stuff up, but the folks at Arkedo can!

Next, Joe tackles Suda51 (not literally), the mad genius behind such games as Shadows of the Damned, No More Heroes, Killer 7, and the upcoming Lollipop Chainsaw. What strategy does Suda51 bring to the development of this upcoming title?

Finally, Joe goes one-on-one with Jeramy Cooke, the art director for Borderlands 2. What awesome things are in store for the much anticipated sequel? Was there a rivalry between Borderlands and Rage?

Special thanks once again to Camille, Suda51, and Jeremy for making the time to speak to Joe!

PSUni — Fri, 06 Apr 2012 04:12:35 GMT

The Terrific Trio turns into a Dynamic Duo as Tyler has been robbed and left for dead. He is currently in a basement crying, wondering what he has done to cause such misfortune. We'll let him out next week. Still, Joe and Malcolm are here to bring to you the incredible return of Underground Radio! It's like when Godzilla and Rodan teamed up to beat King Ghidorah instead of Godzilla, Rodan, and Mothra. Yes, it's exactly like that.

Join us as we cover all the news, including how the best Vita games are on PSN. Free augmented reality games, Escape Plan, Mutant Blobs Attack all get the recognition they deserve! Plus we tackle two weeks worth of community questions, including one from a new emailer! Is The Tester a good series? How does self-defense make you a ninja? Who eats beer and Cheerios? The answer to these questions and so much more this week on PS Uni Underground Radio!

PS Uni Underground Radio 011: Congressman Chewbecca

PSUni — Sat, 24 Mar 2012 03:28:48 GMT

Put away that distress signal, PSUR is back, with Joe, Malcolm, and Tyler discussing politics! Oh, and games too.

Listen in as they discuss news -- Is Dragon Age III on the horizon, and why is Malcolm so excited? Why is the Government sticking their nose in the video game industry this time, and why is Joe so angry about it? Why are the protagonists of Final Fantasy XIII-2 wearing Mass Effect armor, and why doesn't Tyler care?

And for the main course, we go into a little more detail about the movement to get a new ending for Mass Effect 3, and the fact that it looks like it will happen. Have Joe and Tyler changed their stances from last week? Do the players have any right to complain? What does Evangelion Neon Genesis have to do with any of this this?

All this plus RK's Questions and Other Things Joe Hates on PS Uni's Underground Radio!

PS Uni Underground Radio 010: The Lambcast

PSUni — Sun, 18 Mar 2012 04:25:17 GMT

From the ashes of yet another bad connection on skype, comes the next entry of PlayStation University's Underground Radio, now made from real lamb skin!

Join us as we tackle Ratchet and Clank's HD Collection, whether or not Joe's hatemail email exists, and whether or not a certain former Sony Executive jumping ship to Microsoft will mean doom for Sony.

In the meat of our conversation. Malcolm (that one guy in America who has yet to finish the first Mass Effect) interviews Joe and Tyle rabout their experiences with Mass Effect 3. Was it an expired lambchop, or was it a yummy piece of mutton? Find out! And for those wanting more ME3 goodness, how about you check out the sexy new Spoils of War Podcast?

Unfortunately, Tyler then has to leave the broadcast to fight crime for a bit, so Malcolm and Joe give their answers to questions from our number one fan, RK! Tune in next week as Tyler gives his answers to his questions, including his recipe for rack of lamb.

Till then, enjoy this action packed episode of PSuni's Underground Radio!

A new show from the innovators at PlayStation University comes a new show that FINALLY allows us to tell you everything about games, and we do mean everything!

Spoils of War is the new show from PSUni that features the writers of our site spilling the beans and revealing all the details behind games from our present and past. Our first entry is all about Mass Effect 3. Tyler and Joe dissect everything from their experience with this BioWare epic. What were the coolest parts, and what gave the biggest emotional stomach punches? What did they think about the endings? Is this the end that ME needs or the one it deserves?

Malcolm, Joe, and Tyler return to school everyone in the ways of PlayStation, with an emphasis on schooling.

First the boys give their take on the latest happenings, including the recently released tech demo for Kara. Is it a testament to where the graphics in games is going, or is Joe going to hate it? Find out!

Plus Malcolm was busy and busted out reviews for Touch My Katamari and BlazBlue Continnuum Shift EXTEND!

Episode 007: Commie Sephiroth

PSUni — Sun, 19 Feb 2012 16:52:29 GMT

Despite Skype's best efforts to stop us, the podcast is back at full force! Good thing, because Joe thinks letting everyone know about the PSN trophies he's been earning on the can with his Vita is urgent information.

We discuss the usual news, Tyler reviewed Soul Calibur V, Malcolm tells us why he thinks we haven't seen the last of Final Fantasy VII, and Joe waxes poetic about launch games throughout the history of PlayStation. Obviously, we go off topic a number of times throughout each discussion.

We've got a brand-new question for the community to answer this week, too, set dish out your answers on the PS Uni forums!

PS Uni Underground Radio 006: Little Big League

PSUni — Fri, 10 Feb 2012 05:55:37 GMT

The show is a man short as Tyler is away for the weekend, but fret not! Joe and Malcom find a way to record the longest episode yet, and without Tyler to keep them in check the tangents get pretty goddamn ridiculous. Who knew that Google Images would make a classic childhood movie unsearchable?

Anyway, after discussing the week's news, Malcolm gives some underrated Final Fantasy characters their proper due, and Joe discusses some classic PS2 games that he wishes were up for purchase on PSN.

Finally, most of the community segment is spent talking about all the different reasons why The Tester sucks.

PS Uni Underground Radio 005: Horse Armor or Some Garbage

PSUni — Sun, 05 Feb 2012 21:23:14 GMT

Rising from the ashes, the Trio return from oblivion (death, not the video game) to record the latest episode of PS Uni's Underground Radio. Speaking of which, while the guys do crack some jokes, the site is now up and fully operational! Please see us again at www.PSUni.com!

The crew have a pretty serious conversation about Online codes, and the ethics behind this. Do we think the developers are a little misguided or is Gamestop just the devil? Find out! Also, Malcolm talks a little about a recent discovery about Final Fantasy XIII-2, and its ending (WARNING! Spoiler in this conversation). Has Final Fantasy missed yet another step, or could this be an innovative move on Square's part? All this and more in the news!

Finally, Joe wrote a very interesting piece about the Top 5 Open World Games. The boys discuss his picks, and chat about some of their picks for this list.

All this plus what else Joe hates, this week in the Underground!
