Season 3 Episode 16 - Two Thumbs

It's Oscar day and The First World Podcast is here with a movie themed show! First we hit the news with free to play Pokemon, Unreal 4 news, and Settlers of Catan- The Movie? Speaking of movies, in our feature presentation we talk about the long, storied, and mostly terrible history of movies based on video games. Finally in Now Playing, Greg talks about his experience so far in Evolve and whether it's worth the entry price to hunt giant monsters, and Dan talks Majora's Mask 3d and Call of Duty Advanced Warfare (Featuring Oscar winner Kevin Spacey)!

These guys didn't win any Oscars.

Season 3 Episode 15: Eat Me

Welcome to a special episode of the First World Podcast! First we've got news blast with some Evolve controversy and news on Bethesda's big E3 announcement. For our main topic, we have the privilege of sitting down with Gateway Games founder Jamie Toon to discuss their recent Kickstarter campaign for the tabletop game How To Serve Man and to get a lesson from the source on how our favorite tabletop games come to be! Finally in Now Playing, Greg and Dan switch places with Greg talking Dragon Age Inquisition and Dan discussing his feelings on Life is Strange, while Jamie rages on Skyrim for some glitchy DLC and talks the X-Com tabletop/tablet game.

If you would like to be a backer for How To Serve Man, please visit their Kickstarter page here to learn more and checkout Gateway Games on Facebook.

Season 3 Episode 14 - Pie

Welcome to another exciting episode of The First World Podcast! We had to take a week off while we moved to a new space but now we are back and ready for action....sorta. Instead of news this week we answer an email from friend of the show and fellow podcast Dante about what exclusivity REALLY means for console makers and if we even need multiple consoles. Then we delve into an extended Now Playing with Life is Strange, Citizens of Earth, Dan's true thoughts on indie darling Transistor, and more!

Hail Piedra!
