http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/7.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net RPG Developer at Fantasy Flight Games and the man responsible for the future of the Warhammer 40,000 roleplaying game "Dark Heresy". Ross talks about his position at FFG and what the future holds for the game.

In response to listener requests, the D6G team list what they consider "must own games" for any gamer. Get an idea of what Raef, Russ, and Craig's favorites are, as well as gift ideas for the holiday season.

This epsiode also features the world premier of the D6 Generation's first "Not Too Horrible" hit single. Of course, we're using the term 'hit single' very loosely.

All that and our usual 'not too horrible' humor, with features such as:

- When Wives Attack
- Rapid Fire
- The Hollywood Minute
- Contests
- Words from Wales
- & More

What is TI, though? Twilight Imperium?

EDIT: Oh, it is spelled out in the first verse. Twilight Imperium it is. Not a very fun board game if you ask me.


BTW: I played the song for Louise and she though Karen (or is it Nicole) was singing "Playing with my nipples" and wondered if that was common practice in your gaming group. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/224257/471471.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/224257/471471.page GMT

I know interviews can be broadcast months after they were recorded, & I’m sure there’s no “master podcasting calendar” to know what other shows are doing, but it was just a bit weird to have both of your podcasts be posted within a week of each other. While the Games the Thing is a great show, in this case, it can be completely skipped since your interview hit everything they covered & way more.

For the song, I'm more curious how many margaritas it took?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/224257/479332.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/224257/479332.page GMT

I think the podcast 'circuit' is starting to work like the TV talk show circuit. For example, when a new blockbuster movie comes out, say Indiana Jones, suddenly Harison Ford is on every talk show in America talking about his life and ... oh by the way... that new movie in the theaters.

That's because his publicity guy (and the movie studio guys) call the shows and say "how would you like to have Ford on your show?"

Well, that's sort of what happened here. Ross contacted us, said he liked our interview with Corey, and would love to come on at talk about what he does and the new Dark Heresy stuff. We said SURE.

I'm sure we're not the only podcast he talked to.

I'm glad to here you enjoyed our chat with him. And I bet we're the only show that brought up the German porn artist issue. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/224257/479440.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/224257/479440.page GMT [/quote]

Mine were Cutthoat Caverns, Battlestar Galactica, and Uncharted Seas.

I can't remember much of the others', except I know Russ had a MINIMUM of 9, including Battlestar, and Raef had Dungeons and Dragons.

For further clarification they'll have to comment themselves.

Merry Christmas everyone!

There's been some confusion amongst the production crew, and as of right now, 12:48 Eastern US time on Sunday, December 21st, the version we have up is not the FINAL version. Some of the images are blurry, not our first choices, and we initially left off our list of unwitting co-conspirators. But the new one will be up today, hopefully, given the full blown blizzard that is the latest foot Mother Nature has seen fit to drop on us here in the North-East of the good ole US of A.

But definitely check out the video. It adds a whole new level of entertainment value to the song.

And you can all start complaining about what I put in for "Avoiding a Cheesy Army" each verse!

Enjoy!

Filler Game of some kind. Recommended Race for the Galaxy or Mille Bornes.

Co-op game of some kind. Recommended Battlestar or Shadows Over Camelot. I'd also throw in Descent: RtL.


Every gamer needs an X-box 360 to play online with friends. If you HATE vid games, then every gamer needs a great 'global domination' game, and I recommended Starcraft.

Of course, for full details, check out the show!!
