Pod TV News: Show 7


Here is a quick review of the Live-Action trailer we got today during Xbox’s Media Briefing. Needless to say, the whole thing was awesome and beautifully done. One interesting fact that it doesn’t seem like many have caught on to yet is how involved the Didact is in the events that are happening on the Infinity as it’s being pulled towards Requiem.

Podtacular 293: Halo 4 at E3 2012

Today was the first day of E3 2012 and what better way to start off the Xbox Media Briefing with some Live-action, Halo 4 Campaign demo to satisfy our hunger for more Halo goodies. 343i made a huge impression on everyone today and put up an awesome show. There are so many tid-bits from today’s demo to take away from, including the new Prometian enemies and weapons, the joining of the Infinity and Master Chief in the campaign, Cortana’s rampancy, and much more. We tried to hit all the topics of information that came out today, but we are sure to see more throughout the duration of the expo. Community member UnrealCh13f joins us for this show as well as short guest appearances from Nak3dEli and Greenskull who graciously game us some time in the midst of their busy video editing, which I will soon endeavor. Enjoy

Podtacular 292: Yingbell

One of the things we know everyone wants is information: it’s up to the person whether or not they want something spoiled for them. If you are one of those people, then you’ll want to steer clear of this show that speculates on all the leaked screenshots and videos from the past week. Our stance here at Podtacular is to tell you about what is leaked, but we will not take any of this information as official until we have heard it from the horses mouth itself. With that said, take any information you hear us talk about with a grain of salt until 343i says otherwise. Enjoy

Podtacular 291: Pre-Order Goodies

Last week, we started to see retailers who are accepting pre-orders for Halo 4 list their bonus content that will be available with the game when shipped. These bonuses come in unlockable armor skins and emblems for you to use with your Spartan IV. Some of the bonuses are available from multiple retailers, but each region seems to have their exclusive holders of certain bonus items, making it a nightmare for all of those collectable people. We have CruelLEGACEY on the show to talk about some behind-the-scenes stuff for Season 3 of his Waypoint machinima series: Playtime. Enjoy

Pod TV News: Show 5


Last weekend, I was in New York visiting Damian from This Spartan Life for a chip-tunes festival and I didn’t have any of my recording equipment, so a third style of video production was pursued. Since the Bulletin came out shortly after I arrived, I wanted to go ahead an get a video out, and this time, it’s more like an actual vlog. Personally, I’m not as fond of this style of publishing since I really don’t have the proper equipment for it, but if you like it, please comment on it.
