Calling All Artists!

15 04 2007

I figured its time to redesign the Xcast Itunes page with a new logo. So if you are interested in designing a logo for the show get in contact with me via email (frank@theman661.com), post a comment here on this post, and of course you can contact me over Xbox Live.  I am pretty sure you all know my Xbox Live Gamertag.

Anyone Up For a Gears Match Tonight?

12 04 2007

I know this is kind of last minute, but is there anyone that is up for a Gears Of War match tonight Friday April 12th at 7-8 PM EST, I know Corran is in and I will be having a guest on my end. Anyone want to join in? Send me a message over XBL or post a comment here and I will send you an invite.

EDIT: We have rescheduled the match to 8:30 PM EST

UPDATE: The event went well and fun was had by all except when they got sniped by Corran or Tony pulled out the Boomshot. Thanks to everyone who attended, we are looking forward to hosting another blog community night again.

Any Franchises you guys would like to see on the 360….

5 04 2007

TeamXBOX created their list that you can see at http://editorials.teamxbox.com/xbox/1949/Franchises-We-Want-on-Xbox-360-Reader-Wishlist-Part-2/p1/.

 But what games would you like to see on the 360.  I think I will compile a list and send it to Microsoft.  I personally think that we should definitely have Chess.  That is a given.  I would like to see Final Fantasy XIII also and possibly even BlasterMaster from the Nintendo days.  Tell me what you think!!!!

“…one of the best experiences I’ve had over Xbox Live so far.”

21 03 2007

Hmmm, I wonder who said that and I wonder what they are talking about. Ah now I think I remember, I said that when talking about Deacon’s Unscripted Nights:

“It was one of the best experiences I have had over Xbox Live so far. It was a great way to interact with the Unscripted 360 listeners and other members of the community as well as show off my skill. Nah I’m kidding I’m not that great but I do have to give myself credit for the winning head shot. I can’t wait to play again, like I said it was one of the best Xbox Live experiences I have had since I became an Xbox Live member.”
-TheMan661

Well Deacon has just announced that another Unscripted 360 Night will be coming soon and has used a quote from me in the post. Alright please send all autograph requests to…. nah just kidding, anyway check out Deacon’s post here.

Welcome Achievement Junkie!

10 03 2007

Most of you if not all of you have heard me talk about Nelson and Natalie from the Planet Xbox 360 Podcast. Well I guess they had a little bit of an identity crisis and decided to change the name of their show. Instead of the Planet Xbox 360 Podcast, their show is now called Achievement Junkie. This name change has brought with it Nelson and Natalie’s own website AchievementJunkie.com. So head on over to their site and check out Achievement Junkie episode #1 aka Planet Xbox 360 Episode #28: http://achievementjunkie.com/2007/03/10/84/. Good luck with the site guys!

DeaconBlade 360’s First (possibly annual) Xbox Academy Awards

27 02 2007

DeaconBlade 360 has put together a list of Xbox Academy Awards. Instead of a trophy the winners receive an honorary mention over at unscripted360.com dubbed a ring of light. Of course Deacon gave himself an award for his world famous Xbox 360 Laws. There are still more categories being added, how about first ping to the post Deacon? Hahah anyway everyone should check these awards out. I have no idea if we should be expecting an actual Xbox Academy Awards Episode of Unscripted 360, that would be cool. Here is the link to the awards: http://www.unscripted360.com/2007/02/27/the-xbox-academy-awards/
