Catan kicks ass!

Posted on May 3, 2007 by Dust Storm

Catan is the only board game I own and it’s really fun. If you’ve played the board game, the Xbox Live Arcade equivalent is even better IMHO. The idea is you’re a settler on an island and you’re trying to become the dominant clan on the island first. You need to trade resources with your opponents to make it happen, so there’s an interesting degree of competitive cooperation in the game. There’s also a good amount of twists that can really turn the tides. Stay tuned to the podtacular podcast for the usual quick review of this game. In the mean time, I highly recommend buying it and look forward to playing Catan with some of you soon!

Posted on April 20, 2007 by Dust Storm

This show we talk all about our experiences with the new maps: What we liked and didn’t, what customs were good on them, strategies, architecture, graphics and sound, weapon placements, glitching, all that stuff. Guests this week are Dweezle from Tied the Leader, a Halo community and blog, and ChuckieJ, head of the Godtacular Bible study. We also have a new segment: weekly Xbox Live Arcade reviews from Rist Peblo. This one’s a little long; we’ll pay better attention to keeping the length down in the future. Enjoy it!
