Pax East, Post Numero Uno.

So, since arriving here this morning, I've been having a blast. Minus, you know, a blocked toilet and stuff.

I was going to do a video post, but I don't sound very pretty, because my sinuses have decided to hate me, so you'll have to deal with a text post. =)

I got here, and I was greeted by Stephen, with a traffic cone on his head. He even let me take a picture of him with it on. =)

We headed over to the convention center, and I was immediately overwhelmed by everything. Now, I'm not much of a gamer (Y'all know that anyway...), so I just tagged along with the guys and took some pictures. I did see some games that I want to try out when there aren't a billion people watching, so it was really awesome.

Stephen tried to beat the demo of Ms. Splosion Man (Twisted Pixel), and failed by 8 seconds. It was sad. =(

I also happened to see an area blocked off with more PVZ traffic cones. =)

Then, we headed over to the F.3.A.R booth and the three guys played to try to beat the high score. While they were in line, I wandered a little bit, and found the Nintendo DS booth. I <3 Nintendo, so I sat down to play a game. What I thought was Pokemon, turned out to be DragonQuest VI. For someone who's a novice gamer, it was easy, and well, I got up and returned to the F.3.A.R. line with the guys after a few minutes. I think I've been volunteered to play F.3.A.R tomorrow with the guys, and surprisingly, I'm all for it. =)

They guys, right now, are downstairs, recording a PodCast with the guys from GamesRadar.com. I'm kind of hoping there will be a stream tonight, but Stephen doubts it'll happen, so we'll see. Check our Twitters for any news. =)

Peace out, guys!

PAX EAST!

Hey guys, I'm alive, if anyone was wondering.

Some of the crew from AG is at PAX East this weekend. =) I will be updating the blog with pictures and shennanigans and stuff.

I won't be there until tomorrow afternoon (Thank you, school.), so most of this stuff won't be up until tomorrow night.

Live streams will be happening, apparently, sporradically.

So, until then, peace out, girl scouts.

Stephen's Senior Project

So, for my senior project, I chose to make a music video. The video link is below, so take a look!

Theme Song Lyrics

Here are the lyrics to the unofficial Armageddon Gaming Theme Song as heard on podcast 42. Credit goes to Bludpoppp

Yo, it’s…

DJ Brizzy B and Mista Fraggs,

Yeah they work while they play, playing video games!

Like Blops, New Vegas, and don’t forget Amnesia,

Yeah one’s loading planes and the other’s complaining, (You’re gonna be a dick, I’m gonna be a dick, let’s go!)

Haters Gonna Hate

Care of Jesse.

PAX Decisions

LightningNC (Twitter - Youtube) took some liberties with a Penny Arcade comic and our faces to give you all a glimpse into the hotel decision making.

If nobody has any games at the given times, we will use substitute games, so don't worry if you don't have these.  I know most of the games are played on Xbox 360, and that's mainly because that's what we mostly have.  We are also trying to stay away from the PC because I want to record everything and doing so on the PC takes a lot of storage.  We look forward to seeing you all there!

=(

I can't find the Maw, and of course, SOMEONE won't answer his phone. The one time I decide to play, SOMEONE has to hide it.

So, I stole SOMEONE'S Pringles. In yo' face.

Someone give Stephen a hard time on the stream tonight, for me. =)

It's About Damn Time

This is what podcast 36 looks like while it is rendering.  It was a nightmare to do for several reasons which I will discuss on episode 37.

-Brian

Editing...

It's going to take a really long time to get the whole podcast up and ready for listening to due my crappy full time job, being really sick, and the fact that I have over 5 hours of my own audio and 4 other audio lines to sync it up with.  You can look forward to hearing it sometime early Monday, or Sunday night if I can get this done reasonably fast.

Thanks to everyone who showed up or contributed in any way to the show.

Epic Podcast recap.

After an argument, at least an hour total of laughing, songs from Jamie, and some game reviews, we're finally done!

Oh, and let's not forget the "going back" moment, when we relived when Brian and Stephen met last year, and had a baby called Armageddongaming. =)

We had some awesome interviews with Sam, Ryan, Galming, Mike, Jake, and a debate between Logan and Harlan.

Voicemails were the most the podcast has ever had....Even though most of them were from Jake, but that's okay.

There's a whole ton of stuff that happened, too, but you have to listen to the podcast to hear it. =)

Thanks to all you guys to coming to the stream, and contributing to the madness!

-Becky

PODCAST!!!!!

5 minutes, people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Get your asses on the stream!

A New Challenger Appears

A second Maw showed up today...

The Maw Maquette was sent to me by Jamie (<3).  It also showed up with a card.  Here's the front...

... and here's the back...

Here's two Maws making out.

Thank you very much Jamie. You're the best!

Lawlz

I'm sitting at Stephen's desk, on his computer, playing AudioSurf, and wearing his headphones.


So, for those of you wondering why his AudioSurf points shot up, that was me. =)

Ignore the silly face. I've been working with preschoolers all week. =P

Regularly scheduled posts from me should resume soon. Probably starting tomorrow night with the Epic Marathon of Epicness. Make sure to leave voicemails! We also want your "best of" 2010 podcasts, along with your Top 5 games of 2010. The show starts at 7PM EST.

Also, Game night is cancelled this week. The boys can't handle too much fun in one weekend. =P

See you guys tomorrow night!!!!!

-Becky

Podcast Voicemails

This Friday's live podcast is the 2010 blowout and I want more voicemails.  We've received 4 already, but I want more. I would like it if everyone who reads this would just pick up the phone and call (917) 740-5379 and say something for us to play in the show.  You know you want to get involved.

-Brian

ZOMG MINECRAFT BETA!?!!?

Yes, you read right. Minecraft is officially moving into beta on December 20th, 2010! Now, if you know me at all, you probably know i'm as giddy as a school girl over this news. A ton of huge updates that will make me lose another huge chunk of my life is imminent. This may make our Minecraft machinima that we are trying to make easier to do, considering all the changes that they are adding, but it probably won't have too much of an effect on it. Count down the days! 8 to go!

Great picture or greatest picture?
