I am gonna have to kill you all because no one has listed the two podcasts I listen to religiously on gaming.
Warning a Huge Podcast is Approaching Fast - the HG101 podcast on Jpn gaming and industry. When I listen these three guys make me feel like I'm right there listening in. They're totally down to earth and no one is a mic hog.
This is the best videogame podcast I've ever heard and I've listened to every episode. I can't recommend it enough. Oh yeah - and the podcasts are usually 3-4 hours in length. Really. Their focus is something no other podcast really touches on. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE listen to an episode. I'm begging everyone here on Racketboy to listen.
Especially Dsheinem and Jmustang. I know Dave that you told me you didn't want to listen to other podcasts because you didn't want to be influenced by them or just repeat what they are doing and I respect that but I think you're making a mistake by not at least checking it out and listening to one episode.
Shidoshi, Casey Loe, and Nick Rox are the best.
Random Encounter - is the other one from RPGfan.com. I don't really enjoy the people one the show very much but I still come back every few weeks and have for years. The reason? What they cover I care about. RPGs. These guys talk about what I want to hear. Pretty insightful, sometimes I disagree, and they all have strong opinions but again it's what they cover that I care about and always am eager to listen to.
So yeah those are the two podcasts I listen to and sometimes I'll hit up the Racketboy podcast which is pretty good too.
All please please try the HG101 podcast - Warning a Huge Podcast Seriously listen to the latest episode - Stage 23. If you love final fantasy you have to listen to get yourself excited for Theatrythm Final Fantasy.
