This week on the Bag of Games Game Out Loud Podcast Colin, Jordan, and Rob have an eclectic gaming week with Skyrim’s Dragonborn expansion, The Path, and 90′s classic Ultima VII. Then they throw their TF2 hats into the discussion on DLC and microtransactions. Should modders get paid, since they often do a better job than developers at creating post-release content? Should on-disc DLC even exist? Where do we draw the line between good DLC and bad DLC?
Here is the Music Player. You need to installl flash player to show this cool thing!

I was born in 1904 in the vicious tundra of Eastern Russia, where I was raised by a family of beautiful and deadly Irukandji jellyfish. Insistent that I have a better life than they could provide, they shipped me off to the United States where I was to be trained in the art of the video game. The curriculum? Day of the Tentacle, The Fate of Atlantis, Tie Fighter. These Lucasarts masterpieces made me an instant gamer and set me on the path that would define the rest of my life. In what seemed like the blink of an eye, the mid-1990s became the 2000′s became today. I leave in my wake a trail of broken discs, outdated consoles, and fried GPUs — and my 1994 self would be thrilled to know that in 2012, I’m a more fanatical gamer than ever. |

In the year 87 and 1900, brought forth from ice and fire, imbued with the power of “The Gamer”, a child was born in the most inconspicuous of cities. This boy was forged into a gaming juggernaut as he battled the Scorge hordes Quake, braved the maddening dimensions of Doom, slaughtered the numerous armies of the Age of Empires and silenced the Dark Jedi Jerric as he plotted to raise the Vally Of the Jedi. Through these trials a great Gamer was born. Driven to conquer all that stood before him, he accepted every challenge the video game industry could throw at him, demolishing the vast numbers of cartrages, DVDs, UMDs and BluRays that were strewn across his path to greatness.As he grew in size and digital power, he knew that he must create a force for true gaming good. A force to stand against the scores of Video Gaming’s largest threat! Thus, calling on his childhood gaming companion and a force unknown to him (but backed with rather nice references) The Game Out Loud Podcast was brought to light with nothing more than sheer Gaming Glory, Goodness, and just a slight hint of Malice (for flavor of course). Together they fight on the side of the consumer, shedding their Gaming Light to all corners of the internet. They have but one sole purpose. To GAME. OUT. LOUD! |

Colin received his degree in advanced particle physics from M.I.T. A promising theoretical physicist Colin immediately got a job as a research assistant at the highly saught after Black Mesa. One fateful morning after running late into the lab, as usual, Colin was part of a terrible on the job accident. He inadvertently caused a resonance cascade which allowed a portal to open up and dump hordes of terrifying alien monsters into the facility inciting disaster. After barely making it out of Black Mesa alive, an inter-dimensional being took him away to another dimension.In this other dimension Colin had a plenty of time on his hands and he decided to use that time to play as many video games as possible. When he returned to Earth from this other dimension, having not seen another human for years, he decided to tell everyone about his video game adventures in the loudest way possible. He decided to game out loud! |
