Episode 34: Episode One

Greetings and welcome to another adventure filled episode of The First World Podcast! This week the dudes jump head first into the recently unveiled Xbox One. We go in depth with specs, rumors, and our personal opinions on the next gen Microsoft console. But first, Heath talks Neo Geo and the recently announced games bundle, Dan takes a swing at the final Operation Rainfall game to reach the west with Pandora's Tower (with disgusting results), and Greg boldly joins the Romulan Empire and raids a few tombs in the new Tomb Raider. Finally we return with a Triple Barrel Shotgun round about our least favorite heroes (not including the second season of the show)


. Let us know what YOU think about the new Xbox One. Excited? Hate it? Confused? We want to know. Write us at firstworldpodcast@gmail.com. Follow us on twitter @1stworldpodcast. Rate us on iTunes and Podbean. Thanks for listening!

Episode 33: Get Your Fill

Welcome back to the First World Podcast.  This week, the Gamers Three, had a lively conversation about "filler" in video games.  Dan blasted his way through Bioshock Infinite, the first game that all three of us has completed.  Greg spent more time in Star Trek Online, this time, as a Romulan.  Heath, hopped into his way back machine, and dominated Super Metroid on the Wii U Virtual Console. We also get a surprise "special guest"...

Hint Hint



WE WRAP UP THIS EPISODE WITH A NEW SEGMENT WE ARE CALLING, SPOILER ALERT.  THAT IS WHERE WE SPOIL THE SECRETS OF A GAME.  THIS WEEK WE COVER BIOSHOCK INFINITE, SO, IF YOU DON'T WANT IT SPOILED, PLEASE STOP LISTENING TO IT BEFORE IT STARTS. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

Episode 32: She's Got Game

Welcome back to a special episode of the First World Podcast.  This week we have a special guest host, Madison Davis.  Madison is first a gamer, a musician, an aspiring video game programmer and most importantly (for the sake of this episode) of the opposite sex.  Madison sits down and talks with the gamers three about what was/is like being a female who games.  Madison has been spending most of her time playing Disgaea 4.  Greg beat Bioshock Infinite and spent some time with the new Marvel Heroes.  Heath tries to pick up Xenoblade where he left off, and manages to have a great time doing it.  Dan united with Greg and they spent sometime trying to further the Federation's mission in Star Trek Online.  We wrap up the show with the return of our ever popular and oh so cool Triple Barrel Shotgun Round!  This week's question was, what was the last three games you actually beat?  We had to think about that one for a while, let us know what were the last games you beat in the comments below, or on our Facebook page.

Episode 31: The Wrath of CON

Welcome back to the First World Podcast.  This week, the gamers three, discuss gaming conventions and expos, and whether or not they are still relevant.  Heath can't get enough of his Neo Geo X and glitchy Gauntlet at 8-bit Happy Hour.  After Greg washed out the bad taste in his mouth from Demon's Souls, he tries another one of Heath's recommendations and plays Bioshock Infinite.  Dan enlisted in Star Fleet, and boldly goes where no one has gone before in Star Trek Online.  We finish up the night with our new segment, Random Encounters, where the greats get together and duke it out.
