6/12 Update:

I give you... the JRPG episode!


5/13 Update:

It's been awhile since I updated this thread >.>

Look for episode announcements in the User Group and in the newest posts of this thread.

We've had three episodes come out since the last update...

Good MovieCast!

Sexism in GamesCast!

RTS Episode!


3/11 Update:

We got two new episodes for you guys! Enjoy!



2/25 Update:

Listen to us discuss one of the best pastimes ever! Tabletop roleplaying! XD



2/19 Update:

Listen to some of the Escapist's premier Forum Game users discuss their trade!


2/15 Update:

The next episode is out! Enjoy our friends discussing terribad movies!



2/12 Update:
Things got a little hectic around the holidays for many of us (I survived my first corporate merger!) and as a result the CommuniCast fell behind schedule. However, fear not my fellow Escapians, for we have continued to record episodes in the meantime and plan to roll them out to you all in the coming days/weeks. So without further adieu, I present the long overdue Escapist MovieCast featuring our very own community moderator Marter [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/profiles/view/Marter] and his pal DarkKnifer [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/profiles/view/Dark%20Knifer]!



As for what's to come:

- Bad Moviecast, End of this Week (2/15)
- Forum Gamescast, Beginning of Next Week (2/18)
- Tabletopcast, End of Next Week (2/22)

So where the fuck have we been? Well, beyond the poor excuse I've already given, we decided we should take a step back and look at the direction the show was heading in. Due to its nature of being a cast-rotating, community wide endeavor, we think our new theme-based episodes will help drive on-topic discussion as the participants will generally be chosen based on their interest/expertise on the topic at hand. We may continue to do "current events in gaming" type discussions in the future, but for now we'd like to experiment with this format.

However, all of this would be for naught if you guys don't get involved. We do have a lot of community members in on this, but we'd love to get more! If you're interested in getting involved or you just want to keep up to date on what we're working on, check out the user group [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/groups/view/CommuniCast-FailCast]. This thread will also be the new Official CommuniCast update thread, so we'll likely update this thing any time a new episode comes out.

What are we recording next you ask? Well, I've been talking about hosting a Persona themed episode if anyone wants to appear in that. We're also looking to do a Community Creations episode where some of our more creative users will be able to share and discuss their projects (we've already got someone from Haywire Magazine signed up)!

Well, I think that's about it. I want to thank Lucem [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/profiles/view/Lucem712] for making this amazing new title card for us, Fiz [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/profiles/view/Fiz_The_Toaster] for all her hard sound goblin work and everyone else who has taken part in this project so far!

Oh yeah, one more thing. I'm not sure if this episode ever really made it out to you guys so here it is the long overdue SkyrimCast featuring our very own Community Manager Nasrin [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/profiles/view/Nasrin]!


Here's a link to the original thread Daystar made if you're interested:

People! I was a part of this. Listen and love it. Come on! Adore me being dreadfully boring! (Also, I'm on the upcoming "Bad MovieCast," too, so check it out as well!)

Yes. Good to see this thread reborn. Needs more love. Especially from <url=http://www.escapistmagazine.com/profiles/view>you.

If it helps, many of them (if not all) should have mediafire links in the video description, so you can just download the audio file.

If you guys notice any that aren't linked let me know.

The MovieCast doesn't.

It was there in the old link but it's not there for the new video.

Just added it.

Also, I just realized I had already rendered the MovieCast episode at some point and Nero made a new one...

D'oh!

But it's always more fun with videos! :[] [sub]Always...[/sub] I've always had trouble listening to audio files alone, to be honest. It's like listening to music, but much less interesting. :x

You could always just listen to the audio while staring at this gif:

Using that as an avatar would actually be a pretty subtle advertising method. Without actually advertising and getting into trouble. :[]

I doubt it'd be against the rules, but I like my Aigis/Mao avatars too much XD

Man, feels like forever since we did the SkyrimCast :D

How did we manage to talk for that long?
I was under the impression that you never stop talking?

Jokes aside, it is good to see the videos getting posted here again.

It was almost 2 months ago now. You've been slacking off mister!

Personally, I can't wait for Fiz's proposed Cards Against Humanity-cast. No matter the line up for that, it would be hilarious XD

The people in the Persona user group would probably be more than happy to participate!

Also, sorry for blowing off some steam about Persona 4 Arena on you, still peeved about that.
Haha, it's cool man. I posted a link in the user group but no one has expressed interest yet DX

You're damn right it will be hilarious. :D

I should probably start working on that, huh?
