The future of Halo and Podtacular

I keep having the wierdest things happen whenever I listen to podtacular. I was listening to an episode where JVB made a reference to the movie Click
with Adam Sandler and it just happened to be playing in our living room at
the same time. Another time I had just come home from Fred Meyer where I’d
bought a few movies and started listening to podtacular and right as I
began to open the movie JVB made another reference to Super Troopers which
I just happened to be holding in my hand at that exact moment. What does
it mean? I don’t know but it sure was strange. I have some sort of
connection to Podtacular through the force I guess. Anyways I just thought
you might like to hear what I had to say. Great Podcast. Keep on Fraggin’
Trucks.

Marathon…not the game…not the battle…not the running…but the listening…

A while ago I listened to all episodes of Podtacular in order and I finished at episode 72. It nearly killed me.
28 episodes later I hope you’d be able to remember me in Episode 100.

Foo Mo and JVB thank you for this podcast and wherever Spelchek is I want to thank him to. Podtacular kept me liking Halo 2 and is probably the only reason I kept the Halo 2 disc after annoying brats and modders just made me fed up with Halo 2 because whenever you’re in a game with the podtacular community around you
could be losing horribly but it’s still so much FUN.

I just want to say that this is my favorite podcast ever. It’s
got personality. I have been a loyal listener since episode 33 and I want
you guys to keep going until there is nothing else to talk about in the
Halo universe (which probably will have no end). Thank to EVERYONE at
Podtacular from Foo Mo and JVB to all the guest hosts that have been on the
show. It has been a pleasure listening.

In the Future, what would really be cool, is if eventually, everybody from
podtacular: the fans, the community, the staff, and the moderaters could
all come together and meet somewhere in the United States. Now I know this
isn’t fair to people in other countries, but if you look on the map on the
right side of the website, most of the viewers are in the U.S. I think it
would be really cool to meet everyone and see people. We could discuss
podtacular, halo, other games and have a giant lan/pizza party. It may
seem a little far out, but i think it would be cool. Thanks and keep on
fraggin trucks.

I think in the future, I would like to see more Pod TV and halo news. I
don’t know if this is possible with the same guys who used to make them,
but if we could get a new staff working on that, it could be a lot of fun.
I like the halo news and the legendary walkthroughs a lot, and i think they
really benifited the community. Thanks, Keep on Fraggin’ dainty afros.

We are a big community out there, but every1 is starting to lose interest
in Halo 2 topics. I think once Halo 3 and Halo Wars come out, will will
get flooded with new member and old. The 2 games let alone will give us at
least 20 new idea’s for podcasts.

Well i may have started with podtac in ep 50 or so, but man its good to see
a good podcast last this long! Heres to 100 episodes of keeping trucks
fragged! Keeping the Halo dream alive.
p.s. Id love a clan inv but the forums don’t work for me, so if can help
out, i am a good player.

In the future podtacular will become even more popular as word
spreads about the show through the gaming community. There will be more
listeners and more people playing Halo 2/Halo 3 online. Lastly Halo 3
will become the king of xbox live and strike down any other game that even
thinks about challenging it.

I really hope that the Podtacular community grows, and more importantly, I
hope that the audio improves. I hope that the podtacular community will
help make playing Halo 3 worthwhile from the time it’s released until the
end of its lifespan. Weekly events on XBL are encouraged and also more
interviews, but not too much. But my biggest wish is for Podtacular to get
that hardcore feeling back like it did in the old days when Halo 2 was
fairly new. Congrats on Episode 100 guys.

I can see lines of Halo 3 buyers going around the block. I can see the
number of listeners triple as people get back into the Halo community.
With Halo wars AND Halo 3 Podtafcular will be able to run no longer has a
Halo community but a true Halo universe community. Not only will we have
Halo 3 tournaments but we will also hold Halo Wars tournies.
In the end, I think Foo Mo may want to start looking for new staff members
for these future groups ASAP!

Wassup Podtacular!!! Congrats on reaching the 100th episode!! But the real
reason I’m writing this to say the REAL future of Podtacular so enjoy.

million listeners and members, he will also frag so many trucks, that we
will have to develope a new way how to transport products and goods

Walshy, Ogre 1, Ogre 2, Karma, etc.

be published and will be the best selling comic book of all time

-Brent Gamer will get a career in comedy and will later become the next
Dane Cook

multi millionare

-Kiaffex (Infextion X) will get banned from xbox live for standbying and I
will finally get a break from him blue-screen killing me all the time!!
(just kidding he doesnt really cheat)

become the richest person in the world.

-Cowsrule will get a contract with an MLG FFA team and become better than

happily ever after

only be able to be heard by elephants

in museums throughout the world

-Samanator and A Oompa Loompa will open their own Canadian shop and make
the best Canadian bacon ever!!!

-Chevelle will live in fear as Rist Peblo will try more and more desperate
attempts to get Angie to marry him.

-GLewis will get so obsessed with Rainbow 6 Vegas that he will later use
the tactics that the game characters use to try and rob all of the
casinos.

-And for me, well I don’t care what happens to me, all I know is that when
I’m 40, I will look back to my days in Podtacular and smile knowing that we
are one big happy family.

I’ve been tuning in for the past 90 some episodes and think it will only
get better form here. with halo 3 and halo wards on the way later this
year the hype will feed the show like wildfire. The past 100 episodes have
been great, lets hear it for another 100!

once Halo 3 comes out, Podtac will be the first community challenged by
Bungie. This will cause the Podtac group to grow exponentially with
non-flaming, nice, good Halo citizens. The Podcast will earn numerous
awards for its great quality and content. Foo Mo Jive and JVB will be
Co-Community members of the year so JVB won’t have his rearend hurt by a
trophy graphically used by Foo Mo. Keep up the good work and thanx for
being AWESOME.

I would just like to say that you have done a great job with the podcast
and the site.

There has always been something about Podtacular that always kept me
coming back for, and I realized I come back because it is a great podcast,
not to mention a very, very great site.

The podcast never gets old or stale to me. I always listen to the new
episodes and go back and listen to older ones. It is always as fresh as can
be, and is extreamly funny. I cant say how good of a job you have done with
it, especially Ciclonic who takes time out of his life to edit episodes,
and all co-hosts and host who take time out of their personal lives to
create such a podcast.

The website is one of the finest I have ever used. The forums and blogs
are great and I find they are a excellent way to communicate with others.
This is one of the reasons I got Xbox Live because I realized that it was
much more than a game, but a fantastic community with lots of great
people.

I also would like to say that all the forum Admins and Moderators do their
jobs greatly. They always take a balanced approuch to things – most of the
time – and help solve problems always. The members are themselves a great
group to begin with.

Good job with the podcast and keep up the great work!!!

hey guys i read your bulletin on myspace. i think that the Halo community
is going to expand very much come Halo 3 and Halo Wars. Halo 3 because of
the more customizable gameplay and Halo Wars because you can practically
have a whole UNSC or Covenant fleet at your fingers. cant wait for more!

Hey guys, this is BeaverDeath. I believe that in the future, Podtacular
will host the first ever Halo Football tournament. The ball will of course
be a life-sized oddball, with one team Spartans and the others Elites, and
the object is to kill your enemies as many times as you can. The person
holding the ball can bash people with inhuman speed and strength.

(This would be a fun variant!)

Well, Back when i was cool, halo 3 hadn’t been announced. Well, Now it is.
Now to the news. Me and some podtacular members are starring in a glitching
series to help new comers glitch IN CUSTOM GAMES! Also, i am the new member
of RepRIIsent, a Nintendo Wii blog. On the note of the future of
podtacular, i believe that it wil become 3d, and have living master cheifs
who come beat up the spammers in the forms.

I believe that with the arrival of the Halo 3 Beta and then Halo 3 itself
podtacular and the Halo community can only grow. I know that Bungie has
caught my attention completely with the first two games and I know they
won’t let us down with the third. I’m pretty sure they know what they’re
doing. Halo 3 will succeed that said I think that podtacular will gain
subscribers with the new release. It’s a great podcast and it’s a great
way to entertain yourself for another hour. I often listen while playing
the game and it keeps me entertained. Anyways, great podcast and Happy
100th Episode.

I want to thank and congradulate Foo Mo, JVB, and everyone in the
community for making the greatest gaming community ever. I really feel at
home with you guys weither it be on the forums, Live, or the IRC.
I would also like to thank GLewis for starting the Review Frenzy. I have
been wanting to try my hand at game reviewing (since I am considering it as
a career option right behind game making) and the Frenzy has let me try it
out. I love it!

I would also like to thanks Dialpex, Crunk, and all the Mods for keeping
the site fresh, clean, and smooth running.

Shoutout to Brentgamer for, well what can I say, for being Brentgamer.

My highlight of this year was definatly helping record the podcast
(although “technical diffeculties” prevented it from being published wink
wink at Foo Mo
)

Also I would like to see the return of Ba Bam the Grunt.

Thanks guys and keep on fraggin trucks!

i thought it would be pretty cool if you could dual weild wif the energy
sword, cause when u swing, u see the other hand is free, so why not use it?
the sheild grenade is gunna be AMAZING and would be a good counter-measure
against the sword….. and the new halo book Ghosts of Onyx is awsome, a
great read

hey guys, i hope the 100th episode is going well. i just wanted to give a
big shoutout to everyone at podtac that has been here since the beggining,
and have stayed with us this far. you guys know who you are, and have made
my stay 100% enjoyable throughout these 52 weeks of my stay. (thats right,
exactly 1 year!). Podtacular has given me a voice in the Halo Community,
and has given me loads of new friends that I enjoy playing wih everyday. I
know this will go on for quite some time.
I think in the future we’ll see the return of some of our first members,
and a huge amount of new ones. More forum goodness, and more XBL fun. i
would also like the give a special shout out to the art forums. Doctor 120,
DM7000, Sil3nt71, ArticleGFX, cptkabuse, Shockey, Denting Cobra,
Dinomaster4, blankCANVAS, stickygerbils, and everyone else, you guys have
really helped make the art and signature forums the best and most enjoyable
and active forum. a big thnx to all of you.

Id also like to thank everyone that has helped with the 100th episode
sound clips, which hopefully will get played before or after this is read.
you guys really should be proud of yourselves. i know CapnKrunk will do an
awsome job editing them. cant wait to hear it!

I think Podtacular is going to still get many new listeners and members in
the times to come. Also, I know that there will definitely still be the
great friendly community here. When Halo 3 comes out, new people will
definitely be tuning in the podcast. The Halo community can only get larger
because of the highly anticipated release of the next Halo and Halo Wars. Anyways, I look forward to the 200th episode. Keep on fraggin trucks.

I have not been a listener or a member for long but from what I’ve herd,
the podtac community will stay strong. u may run out of things to do for
podcasts, but wether u do or u don’t i will stay with the this place cause
it is a great place to be.

For halo 3 i know it will be awsome and i kind of agree with JVB that
master chief will die but, i think at the very end Chuck Noris will come
and then we will have a new sieries to run with. It will be called, Chuck
in action, kickin’ covie ass and taken names. but thats just me, and im am
just a person (i think)(i hope)thanks for readin this ya all. se u on the
forums.

Well Foo Mo and JVB, this is RandomSunchips from the Podtacular forums. I
just wanted to say that its been a pleasure listening to your podcast every
week. The forums look good even though there is some minor problems. With
Halo 3 coming out, it seems like Podtacular will grow stronger with more
people jumping on the Halo bandwangon, leaving us grizzled ancients
overwhelmed. The forums will again become lively and there will be mass
amounts of Halo playing. Its been a pleasure listening, and don’t forget to
ask Bungie to put in “Yo Momma” Jokes by Sergent Johnson in Halo 3.
/jk. Keep on fraggin’ trucks!

I am very excited to see where the Halo community is going in the future.
Halo has one of the most unique communities that truly love the game and
invest a great deal of time and energy in it. With the Second Foundation
awards and the halo2.junk tournament being great succeses, events involving
Halo 3 will be awsome. Im looking forward to seeing what events podtacular
and other communities will have for Halo3.


Wrap up

Until next time I’m Foo Mo Jive (and this is)
