In the midst of my crazy move to a new house and terrible planning on my part with Kyo, we will once again be LockeTalke-less for this week. I do have some good news however: As I am getting adapted (and am testing the functionality of basic recording through Skype and Google Hangouts), the audio quality should be improved for our next recording. I will also be doing some site updates throughout the week which should help fix some of the browser issues you may (or may not) have noticed.

I know, I know, it sounds like a barrage of excuses but I promise that this is all for the best. We have already gone past episode 50 and it’s about time we run a few upgrades to our layout and overall site performance (especially now that HTML5 is a standard language… for all you web-savvy peeps ;-D ).

So with that I leave you with the following… at Midnight Pacific Daylight Time, Diablo 3 will be accessible. My screen is ready. Is yours?

Totally not the reason we aren't recording today, BTW

Don’t Kill the Rotation | Dharma Monkey

Halo 4 is not too far from making it’s way into our homes. I haven’t been particularly excited for this title but due to the more recent ViDocs from 343 Industries, the famous Bungie-less 1st person shooter is making me really look forward to a new interpretation of the Halo franchise (kinda like reading someone else’stake on a comic book superhero and realizing that they really care about the source material and are as much a fan as you are). One of the things that really took me off guard and I cant stop feeling mesmerized by is Cortanas redesign -as per the most recent Game Informer issue.

!

This A.I. is too cute (and strangely younger in appearance compared  to her previous character models). I’ve been pretty giddy about it this last week but honestly, I’m just glad to know that 343 decided to make this project their own and I would be lying if I said I wasn’t at all curious to see how the series will continue to unfold. Yes that is me publicly admitting to wanting to see more than a trilogy for once.

Seriously, wow

Yeah I seriously cant wait for this game.

Hey folks, there wont be a LockeTalke episode this week. But fret not, we will return for next Monday. Until then expect some new blog posts later tonight and throughout the week to help quell some of that LockeTalke fix.

LockeTalke 049 - roadtrippin

Episode 49 of LockeTalke with Haru, Kyo, and Xarcos. Today we talk about Kyo’s trip to Florida and Canada, Haru discusses cellphones as well as his upcoming wedding, and Xarcos just smiles and nods.

LockeTalke 048 - Yeah, we went there!

TOTALLY MESSED UP THE ITUNES POST: Looks like I edited the XML file improperly. If you have the wrong episode 48, delete the episode from iTunes and go to the LockeTalke iTunes link and re-download episode 48. Really sorry for the inconvenience.

Episode 48 of LockeTalke with guests Xarcos Locke, Foolwise Locke, and Evil Jimmie! Kyo Locke is out for this episode so now our podcast gets all kinds of depressing. Todays topic: racism.
