OSMcast: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness Ep. #1 6-27-2008

So how about that “On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness” stuff eh guys and gals?

Pretty good stuff! You should totally buy it. Or at least try the demo. You could also go buy Commando 3 on the XBLA while you’re at it so you can try the new SFII: HD Remix beta going on. Or Space Invaders Extreme!
I still cannot beat Level 4, but one day… ONE DAY!!!

I will triumph!

OSMcast: Kekkaishi 6-20-2008

In this episode we decided that box anime is cool. And by “box anime” we mean, “Kekkaishi.” Also, ice cream.

OSMnotes

Okay so admittedly I just beat MGS4, so at the moment I’m busy going “OMG MGS4 MGS4!!!!” therefore actual show notes aren’t exactly on my mind. Though I am sad to find out the Wal-Mart sale is apparently already over so… oops. Hopefully those of you out there will have already realized this deal and have bought one!

The rest of you should follow my lead and steal I mean borrow them from all your friends that just obtained those PS3s and play Metal Gear Solid 4 on them. I want to say that this new Metal Gear is good enough that you’ll want to buy a PS3 anyway, but I know that’s just the MGS fanboy in me and that overall the 360 is still
the better gaming system.

… Maybe.

Kekkaishi is also an awesome show and an even more awesome manga. You should go buy all of the manga now. They have 14 volumes so far out so you have plenty to catch up on!

Oh and email us (osmcast@gmailDOTcom), comment, voice mail, let us know you exist, the usual.

Metal Gear!!!

OSMcast: GTA IV 6-13-2008

Are you read for some unbridled passion as two souls burn brightly about Grand Theft Auto the Fourth? Well too bad we’ve already recorded it!

OSMnotes

Though to be fair, we ended up playing Street Fighter III: Third Strike afterwards instead. Will there be another Inubito/Basil podcast about the upcoming Street Fighter TV once it releases? Oh yes. And who knows… since we only scratched the surface that is GTA IV, there may be another about GTA IV in the far flung future. For example if you wanted an in depth discussion on how Niko’s journey into America as an immigrant was portrayed in the game compared to how it is seen and actually is in America, well… We could do that.

Or we could talk about playing darts and going to strip clubs in the game. Whatever floats your boat.

And as always tell us about these things and your opinions in the comments section, send us an email (osmcast@gmailDOTcom), or throw down a voice mail our way!

inubito on aim: holy shit 52:07. lol
Basil on aim: NICE!
inubito on aim: wrd
Basil on aim: that’s just how we roll. lol
inubito on aim: True that.

OSMcast: Baccano! 6-07-2008

Tonight on the slightly delayed OSMcast! we talk about Baccano! And it’s many, many crazy characters.

OSMnotes

We also talk about Tokyopop’s current reshuffling as well as Rock Band’s attempt at taking over Japan.

But it’s mostly about Baccano(!).

And also beer.

But really Baccano(!).

In other news, we now have Promos! Check the sidebar to your right and check’em out!

Trivia: This is now our longest podcast! ZOMG.

Podcast delayed?!

Due to somewhat foreseen circumstances (Basil’s work schedule), we’ll actually be recording tonight and hopefully editing tomorrow.

I know this news may be hard to handle, but them’s the breaks kids.

OSMcast? Indy IV 5-30-2008

In this episode of the OSMcast? we plunge into the depths of the Cosmic Tribe Tarot set and explore the ruins of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

OSMnotes

Seriously guys, that tarot deck is pretty terrible. But don’t take my word for it! Check it out for yourself with this handy-dandy so very Not Work Safe link that shows the entire deck. And where you can order it from, if you know, naked dirty hippies are your thing. They say they’ve sold over 15,000 of them, so I’m guessing they can’t all be horrible accidents like our experience was. So yeah Stevee we bought your deck, and we came away unimpressed.

Oh, and that Indiana Jones flick. It was so totally a movie. Yeah.

And as always please comment, email us, let us know you exist. I know someone out there is downloading this stuff… somewhere!

OSMcast! Show #8: Metalocalypse

THIS IS THE MOST METAL OMSCAST EVER THIS IS METAL EVERYTHING WE DO WILL NOW BE METAL

OSMnotes

The World of OSM games we talked about were Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Cross Generation of Heroes, Lost Winds, On the Rain-slick Precipice of Darkness: Episode One, and Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe. The anime is Soul Eater, based on a manga by Atsushi Ohkubo and animated by BONES.

Sorry about the lack of Narnia once again, but we’ll make it up to you! But really guys, it is like “Spinal Tap meets Scooby-Doo meets Norway.” Until next time awesome believers!

OSMcast! Show #7: Speed Racer

Tonight on the OSMcast! we go go go after the latest movie adaptation by The Wachowski Siblings, the Tatsunoko Production’s classic anime hit Speed Racer.

OSMnotes

Also in case you hadn’t notice, Inubito thought the remix of the Speed Racer theme was so awesome, he included all of it. Be forewarned! Or not! However, this does end creating our longest podcast ever. But anyway, seriously guys, there were parts of this movie that were more awesome than Iron Man. Really. Not kidding! Though I guess overall Iron Man is the better movie, it’s already made tons of money so go spend it on Speed Racer instead!

Next week we’ll hopefully if schedules allow be covering the new Narnia film, and possibly something else a little more… metal. Till then! Email us at osmcast@REMOVECAPSgmail.com, or just throw us some comments at the bottom of this post.

If you want more info on Mach Go Go Go / Speed Racer, check out these articles from scifijapan.com. It’s got some really cool stuff inside!

OSMcast! Show #6: Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fates

We’ve gone back in time to olden days of April for this OSMcast! where Basil and Nobody have a conversation about one of the longest named games on the DS: Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fates.

OSMnotes

We also talk about games like FF7: Crisis Core and Lost Odyssey, though not for long. Friday we’ll be continuing our “Nerds Go Out to the Movies” escapades this month with our take on the new Speed Racer movie! Though here’s a hint: Basil liked it a whole lot, though Eric and Nobody liked it as well. Though not as much as me. I mean Basil.

Check back with us Friday! (Also email us, comment us, let us know you exist! Please?)

OSMcast! Show #5: Re: Cutie Honey

In this episode of the OSMcast! The gang’s all here as we talk about the 2004 OAV Re: Cutie Honey! And also, a little bit of Rock Band.

OSMnotes

If you’d like more info on Re:Cutie Honey, there’s always the ANN Page, as well as the Gainax Page’s, um, page. More importantly, you should also check out the live action movie it was paired with.

As always, please let us know what you think! We have the comments section below, our email is osmcast@KILLCAPSgmail.com, and we even have a voice mail now at 206-426-5063.

Next week the plan is to take a blast into the pretty recent past as we release our previously recorded podcast about Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fates! Then we’ll probably see about tackling Speed Racer.
