Blogsmith http://www.blogsmith.com/The Joystiq PodcastJoystiqAnd it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from the Internet that all the ears should be rocked with video game podcasts. And all went to be rocked, every one into his own iTunes account. And Chris Grant also went up unto the city to be taxed with Ludwig Kietzmann, his espoused co-host, being great with child. And so it was, that, while they were there he should be delivered. And he brought forth their firstborn podcast, and wrapped it in swaddling jokes, and laid it in a Zune; because there was no room for them in the iPod. And there were in the same country gamers abiding in the field, keeping watch over their ... games by night. And, lo, the angel who was named Justin McElroy came upon them, and the glory of video games shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, "Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day a savior, which is the Joystiq Podcast."<![CDATA[Super Joystiq Podcast Special: E3 2013 Day 2]]>http://www.joystiq.com/2013/06/13/super-joystiq-podcast-special-e3-2013-day-2/http://www.joystiq.com/2013/06/13/super-joystiq-podcast-special-e3-2013-day-2/http://www.joystiq.com/2013/06/13/super-joystiq-podcast-special-e3-2013-day-2/#commentsFiled under:

It's E3 2013 Super Joystiq Podcast Special time. A lot has happened, but in the interest of making it through the rest of the week, it's all about the games for now.

Richard, Ludwig, Jordan, and Mike Suszek revolt against their bodies' need for sleep to deliver some impressions of actual next-gen games from the first day of the big show. A trio of driving games is up first: Drive Club, Need for Speed: Rivals, and Forza Motorsport 5, and then it's on to Dying Light, Ryse: Son of Rome, and Crimson Dragon.

Stay tuned for a full recap and commentary on the press conference news bombs later on in the week, along with plenty more impressions of games from the show. See you back here tomorrow!

This week's Super Joystiq Podcast can now confirm that it requires an Internet connection to play.

It's a one-segment show this week, but that doesn't mean we don't hit the big releases, the news, and even some listener questions. First up, the four man crew of Xav, Richard, Ludwig, and Jordan discuss the two big reviews of the week: The Last of Us and Remember Me.

In news, things start with a breaking news discussion on Microsoft's clarification of the online requirements of the Xbox One. The crew also cover the leaked details of Respawn Entertainment's Xbox/PC exclusive Titanfall, the announcement of Kiefer Sutherland as Snake in Metal Gear Solid 5, and a slew of Twitter questions.

Check back early next week for what will surely be the first of many podcast specials out of E3 2013. Also, due to E3 craziness, there was no live show this week, and subsequently no video after the break per usual, but you can always head to the Joystiq YouTube page for previous weeks' editions.

Listen to the Super Joystiq Podcast: Details and relavent links are available after the break.

The Xbox One-- yes, that's still the real name. The home crew tackled the announcement of Microsoft's latest console in our special episode on Tuesday, and now Ludwig and Alexander are back from the event to discuss the aftermath of information that has since been clarified, and not. There are still plenty of unknowns and red flags, and we dive deep on all of them here.

Sony made the first move in the next-gen battle in February, and now, mere weeks before E3 2013, Microsoft has revealed its next console, the Xbox One.

Ludwig and Alexander are in Redmond covering the full goings-on at the Xbox One announcement event, but the home crew of Xav, Dave, and Jess are here to recap all the currently known details. There are still plenty of questions surrounding the system, especially when it comes to software, but Microsoft did spill plenty of details regarding the hardware.

Facts, opinions, speculation - it's all here.

This week's Super Joystiq Podcast is thinking of developing its own MOBA.

Join us for the calm before the new console storm. This week in games, Richard, Mike Schramm, and Jess hit a few smaller releases and indie titles. Richard talks Zoombies, Jess hits Richard & Alice, and Mike is on iOS duty with Magic 2014 and Sid Meier's Ace Patrol.

In news, Alexander, Dave, and Sinan kick things off with the almost stealth-announced Gran Turismo 6. Also on tap: Android's new gaming backend, EA's strange, yet welcome, decision to abandon the online pass, and Dave's time with the Nvidia Shield.

This week's Super Joystiq Podcast promises it will never go always-online.

A couple big ones and a couple smaller ones. This week in games, Xav, Dave, and Jess kick things off with Klei's latest, Don't Starve. Game Dev Tycoon gets some time, and then it's on to the biggies, Metro: Last Light and the return of Spies vs. Mercs in Splinter Cell: Blacklist.

News is all about EA and financials. Alexander, Richard, and Mike Suszek hit the delay of the Ouya, EA's 2013 lineup, layoffs, all the Star Wars, and the announcement of the offline-capable Sims 4. Also, and the return of BJ - in Wolfenstein: The New Order.

This week's Super Joystiq Podcast is pondering a life of crime in Los Santos.

We are on the cusp of a flurry of next-gen reveals, but the current generation still has some big releases on the horizon, and it doesn't get much bigger than GTA. In games, Richard, Ludwig, and Dave talk Grand Theft Auto V, Soul Sacrifice for the PS Vita, Sid Meier's upcoming iOS game Ace Patrol, and Thomas Was Alone.

In news, Alexander, Jordan, and Mike Suszek successfully cover the big stories of the week, but unsuccessfully drag Jess out of her cookie-hating place of despair. On tap: Wii U's struggles, Steam Greenlight's continuing evolution, the clever anti-piracy measures of Game Dev Tycoon, and more.

This week's Super Joystiq Podcast can't stop buying $99 booster packs.

It's a week of smaller releases, and we've played a number of them. Xav, Ludwig, Richard, and Jess convene to talk the long-in-development Monaco, Star Trek (The Video Game), Injustice iOS, Thomas Was Alone, and the currently in-funding Metroidvania hybrid A.N.N.E.

Nintendo capitalized the news last week, and the madness continues with word that the house of Mario will not be holding a traditional E3 press conference this year. Microsoft will though, a mere 19 days after an event set to be all about the next Xbox. Alexander, Dave, Mike Suszek, and Sinan also hit a slew of news including remaining THQ auction results, a leak regarding the next Call of Duty, and more.

This week's Super Joystiq Podcast loves breakfast buns. It also loves Nintendo.

Richard, Ludwig, Dave, and Jordan jump into a single-segment episode focused on the latest Nintendo Direct and a host of new titles. The crew previews Animal Crossing: New Leaf and Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, discuss news of a return to the world of Zelda: A Link to the Past, and more. In non-Nintendo news, the DC Universe is at war in Injustice: Gods Among Us and the team picks sides.

This week's Super Joystiq Podcast is incapable of reading, and thus, has no idea when to "Press A."

The Ouya doesn't hit store shelves until June 4, but Richard is kicking off the games segment with some early thoughts on the Kickstarter edition of the forthcoming Android console. Also on tap, Ludwig talks Guacamelee, Jess hits Battleblock Theater, and the almost-too-weird-to-be-true FarCry 3: Blood Dragon gets some time.

In news, Sinan covers the FarCry 3 standalone in more detail, and then it's on to the almost weekly layoffs section-- this week: EA Montreal. Alexander and Jordan also discuss the latest news regarding SimCity, Project Eternity, and the recent Microsoft Twitter drama.

GDC 2013 is underway, and EA took the spotlight last night to officially unveil Battlefield 4 - and we have opinions.

Alexander, Ludwig, Dave, and Jess are in to talk about the reveal event-turned near-debacle. A completely botched PR campaign is already overshadowing the announcement itself, and "Press F to cut leg" doesn't help matters.

This week's Super Joystiq Podcast is afraid that sharks will come out of its shower head.

The parade of March releases continues. In games, Xav, Richard, and Jess convene to talk God of War: Ascension, Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, Ridiculous Fishing, and the hot new jam - Dark Souls.

In news, Alexander, Jess, and Jordan start at the only logical point for a week like this: the ever-evolving state of SimCity. Also, a surprise expert guest drops in with an answer only he can provide, and Jordan goes deep on newly revealed Injustice: Gods Among Us characters. Poor Aquaman.

Be sure to catch the games segment recorded live on YouTube every Thursday. This week's edition can be seen on the Joystiq YouTube page, and after the break.
