Is Xav leaving to start the PS3 Fancast?

Aaawwwww....We'll miss ya, you crazy Canadian. Hope to hear more from you in the future Xav!

We'll miss you, northern mexican.

Xaz, you will be missed, good luck!

@NBA Kirkland

Don't you know how to spell his name its ALEX!!! (Little in joke there)

Too bad to see you go but at least I can still have my Xav fill with The Freelancers and like someone else here has said hope you are the one to start up the PS3 Fancast.

Where the hell are you going Xav?

Goodbye...

Xav I will miss you, so I guess there nothing else to say other than, see you later, Eh?

Oh no. First Dunner and now you! Out goes the X3F boys. :(

well bye.

If you lose anybody else I'm not listening anymore.

Of my friend, I can only say this:
Out of all of the Fanboys I've encountered, he was the most...*stifle cry* Canadian...!

(cue "Amazing Grace" as a maple leaf soars towards the Xbox 360 globe logo)

In all seriousness Xav, we'll miss you man. Thanks for the lolz and the hard work. I won't soon forget your time with Lionhead, to name one specific story! I'm deeply sorry I didn't have the ability to create you send-off art as I did with Dustin.

@Magic Whiskey

Damn, that's one vicious drop bear.

@(Unverified) woah woah woah, he isnt dead, just dead from the fancast although it isnt 100% better...

What the heck.. Horrible Internet Connection is visiting me right now...

Something doesn't add up here..

Hah. Being unverified.

Xav,

As a fellow Canuck and Torontonian, I'll miss your great-white-northern opinion and insight. It really helped to relate to the podcast knowing that there was someone else that could sympathize with our lack of Netflix, late arriving Jasper units, and the Canadian "Game Tax".

We'll miss you

Are you focusing on your freelancing Xav?

@gliff
torontonian + 1

Good luck Xab in whatever you do next. So who will be the next replacement? Griffin perhaps???

*sigh* Don't tell me you're leaving the 'stiq all together as well. Sad to see you go Xav.

'tis a shame to see ya go Xav, I've always related to your opinions more than others and your commentary has never failed to educate & amuse. Hope you don't disappear from the industry, but good luck with whatever you're moving on to

the mp3 link is dead

@Triforceowner

Yeppers, and still is at 10:25 CST

@Triforceowner

Fixed.

R.I.P Zaz.

it's all a cover up by AOL which has been taken over by drop bears, Canada has been invaded, we have to stop them before it's to late! we have to stop the drop bears form taking over!

@lolo
Really? Go die in a fire.

Thanks for the podcasts, Xav. If X3F is getting a new 4th member they must follow with tradition and get a deep voiced Canadian.

i'm sad

"How do you say goodbye in Canadian?"
I believe it's "Keep your stick on the ice."

Shame to see ya go Xav.

I managed to grab the mp3 from the RSS link, none of the others worked for me... weird

Wait, Xav is leaving? Well I'll miss you.

mp3 link is down

Not Found... anyway was this all of a sudden or what? ive missed a few shows lately so i dont know, hey even Dusting had like a month of preparations along with a final show.

http://www.joystiq.com/podcasts/6-21-10-joystiqxbox-E169-1.mp3

NOOOOOOOOOOOO. I don't post here much, but I listen to every episode as soon as I get it. I wish Xav the best of luck, you'll be missed.

that subpop song made ME 'want to die'

good luck xav, we'll miss ya.

dude guys... totally unlistenable. Come on, if you're going to be doing this regularly, maybe shell out a few hundred bucks for high quality microphones? Maybe not do this over crappy internet?

Dustin and Xav. :(

X3F
2006-2010
those were the good times
no more gears of war and halo fanatic since 2009
and now no more sonic hating grocery working Canadian??
you guys sure dropped the ball now
whatever that new guy name is couldn't replace dustin and whoever you get next cant replace Xaz
you guys are dead now just end the podcast.

Best of luck, Xav (Zav, Xaz ??? j/k). I'll miss your hunky voice and sobering wit. I am pretty sure you will kick ass in your future endeavors (DRINK!).

Nice to hear Dustin.

Glad to see you are have stepped into the future stiq with two episodes, unlike that "other" podcast!

NO! NOT XAV! i should spell it wrong shuddnt i..

NO!! XAS!! Dont Leave!! im sorry Xav, everyone else was doin it too
