    Episode 63: Diction is Good, Addiction is Bad

    posted @ 8/20/2007 10:59:00 AM by evermore
    Once again, the sistahs have put together a fine show for you in Episode 63: Diction is Good, Addiction is Bad. Plus, if you linger just a little bit after the sistahs sign off, you'll be rewarded with a special little outtake.

    In this episode, Pandalicious breaks out of WoW mode and talks about playing a new version of Final Fantasy 7, which is reimagined as a first-person shooter.

    The sistahs get a little off-track and make a plea to all video game makers out there: Make a video game with a black hero! (And they're not talking about turning Oprah Winfrey into Lara Croft.)

    Finally, Bio-Shock has Ninjasistah heading to the bathroom to clean herself up. And that's just the demo. Looks like the full-blown version might be a three-roller.

    Here are the rejected titles for this week's episode:

    Panda Puts Out For a Song

    Lift the Flap to Unlock the Crack

    Remembering 9/11, 12 and 13

    Pandalicious Pursues the Polygons

    It Was a Short That Was a Little Long

    In Case of Rapture, This Game Will Be Unmanned

    Episode 55: Welcome to the Eyefor Towel

    posted @ 6/25/2007 11:22:00 AM by Ninjasistah
    Monday brings with it once again a crunchy new episode of the Electric Sista Hood podcast, and this one is just as off the wall and fun as the other ones!

    All three regular hosts hop on the cast this week to bring you some info about some cool and not so cool goings on in the worlds of anime and video games. First up at bat is Panda "Stop Saying I Have Herpes" licious who shares with us her experiences with the anime Hare+Guu, which [like many anime series] is very weird.

    Magic "I Forgot About the Giant Ball Monster" MysticGrl chimes in at the number two slot to share with us EVEN MORE .Hack// goodness with us by imparting her sort of found wisdom from .Hack//roots.

    And bringing up the rear [as usual in this weekly menage] is NinJa "Get a Twinkie, Cuz Yer Gonna Need Brain Food" Sistah dropping her 2cents on the whole Manhunt 2 debacle.

    Yeap! Grab yourself a Twinkie and something to drink, Episode 55: Welcome to the Eyefor Towel is up and running!

    My Top 5 MMORPGs

    posted @ 5/27/2007 10:18:00 PM by evermore
    It's another Top 5 episode this week, proudly presented by frequent ESH contributor Douceswild. In this episode he gives his take on the Top 5 Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Games, or MMORPGs.

    He's researched the field thoroughly, spending his own time and money to immerse himself in the worlds of the Matrix, Lord of the Rings, comic book superheroes and the World that is Warcraft.

    Which one comes out on top? Well, you'll have to listen to the podcast yourself to find out, now won't you? I'm sure not giving it away.

    Listen for yourself. We're sure you're gonna like it.

    Episode 44: Pointing Out My Inadequacy

    posted @ 3/25/2007 10:07:00 PM by Ninjasistah
    Another Monday, another new episode of the Electric Sista Hood podcast. This time MagicMysticGrl and NinjaSistah go it alone to talk of things manwa and PC gaming in nature.

    Well, not literally nature as is grass and trees and earth, but I'm sure you get the meaning. MagicMysticGrl shares some insights on the manwa title Can't Lose You by Wann which has the making of a great movie or at least daytime soap opera. Can't Lose You starts off like the Prince and the Pauper, but adds a layer of "say what?" and "you're related to who?" to keep the reader flipping through each volumes pages ferociously.

    NinjaSistah kicks off the newly sponsored PC game title reviews thanks to Velocity Micro with, amazingly enough, World of Warcraft! Shame it had to be on a week where Pandalicious couldn't join the crew. If you want to know if WoW has a new addict fan or not, you're just going to have to give this episode a listen.

    Submitted for your approval, is Episode 44: Pointing Out My Inadequacy.

    Episode 36: You'll Believe a Pig Can Fly

    posted @ 1/22/2007 12:16:00 AM by Ninjasistah
    As the beginning of the work week rears it's ugly head once again we deliver unto you a new episode of the Electric Sista Hood podcast. Rejoice!

    In this episode of the podcast, Pandalicious talks about her disappointments with the World of Warcraft expansion pack The Burning Crusades while NinJaSistah delves into the simulation video game genre that she believes may be life draining. Along the way they talk about interventions, skipping work to play games, and how sleep is for the weak. The sistahs even break from the norm and give a shout out to the fine folks over at TokyoPop, purveyors of fine anime and manga.

    So grab that first cup of mornin' joe and saddle up for Episode 36: You'll Believe a Pig Can Fly.
