OH WHAT A SURPRISE. This week Scott Sharkey joins us to chat about life in the woods and why Sony sucks for leaving their service so vulnerable to attacks. Plus, Soundboard Chris and the rest of the gang talk about Call of Duty online in China and more Alan Wake. And Ballsrog gets hyped about Mass Effect 3.

This week, we're calling our show, "Little Alice: The Farewell Podcast." We discuss the Portal 2 app, how we like Portal 2, oh and, what it's like to hide from Portal 2 spoilers. We dive into the news stories Tina picked, which happens to make it seem like PlayStation sucks -- PSP Go still exists in North America, Child of Eden delayed, PSN is still down. And we're sending Alice to the UK to cover the latest Mario & Sonic game.

This week we finally see the return of Chris Plante! He tells us what he?s been up to, talk about Kinect, Portal 2, and Sam tells us all he knows about the new Nintendo console that?ll be shown at E3.

Sam, Tina, and Alice are joined this week by special guest James Silva, who, for those not in the "know," is behind the XBLA game Dishwasher Samurai. We talk about legalizing switch blades for one-armed humans, shoehorning multiplayer into videogames, leaky codblop maps, and dressing like Solid Snake. Also, our call-in question mailbox seems to have contracted some sort of audio venereal infection we just can't get rid of.

After our strange disappearance from podcast-dom, we return with a double feature! This week (during the first half), Sam shares how old he is by remembering his first Street Fighter experience, Alice names her cat Sprinkles, and we suggest game music tracks. In the second half, Scooter, Jeremy, Tina and Sam find time to make fun of each other. Scooter is shy in front of the 3DS girls, Jeremy loves the Bioshock Infinite panel, and a 1UP imposter roamed PAX east.

Holy crap guys! The Game Developer's Conference happened! And we were there! We lost Alice in the crowd so we recorded without her.

Thud... Thud... Thud... The water in your cup shakes. What can it be? You look over at your monitor; a podcast appears! We're joined this week by one Matt Clark (you may recall his winning blog entry a few years back that scored him a ticket to E3!) as we discuss Telltale Games' recent bevy of game announcements, including the dinotastic Jurassic Park. Some other stuff is discussed after that, but the important part is that Sam still doesn't know how to enter his credit card information into...

Can somebody give their PlayStation 3 a hug? We talk about Sony's bad string of luck, how Japan thinks Catherine is better than MVC3, we ask why Tina likes to irritate her new boss, and Sam mentions something about why he loves Justin Bieber. Oh, and we finish off with Ballsrog's latest rap.

Oddcast is 50 years -- er, episodes old! In our old age, we've grown senile, and can't remember what was said, revealed, or otherwise shouted across the airwaves this week. For all we know, we've murdered Chris, and he'll never be heard from again, except as a ghost, like in that one movie. Well, we're at least pretty sure this episode also includes Dog Football.

Ready for the new year? We're putting 2010 behind us the only way we know how: Odd Awards! Listen to us talk about such categories as, "He gave it to his Mama," or "PMPNP" (Predict Michael Patcher's Next Prediction).

Happy holidays from the 1UP Oddcast crew! Special remix by @tole_cover.

On this week's Oddcast, we can't wait for Bad Company 2 Vietnam, share moments about our NYC trip, Tony Hawk is a dying breed, Alice has a new instrument, Sam likes Kratos and Chris explains why his girlfriend has no idea about our show. Also, we take call-in questions and emails.

The Oddcast Thanksgiving Special! Don't listen to this one before you eat.

It's the Oddcast's 1-year anniversary! But no one gives a crap. This week the gang goes off on Black Ops' multiplayer, continues to gripe about the bugs in Fallout New Vegas, and bitches even more about San Francisco banning happiness (aka Happy Meals). Plus we talk about how Tetris cures all and plan our trip to Spain to visit Super Mario Street!

This week we discuss everything Kinect, Gran Turismo, Assassin's Creed Brotherhood, Battlefield Play4Free and introduce two new segments we think you'll enjoy. Oh, and we finish it off with listener questions as always!

Behold! Chris has escaped his well and is now in?a bathroom? Yep! This week we talk about Halloween, One billion XBL hours, Keiji Inafune, EA Tiberon, PS3 fans rejoice, Sam and Max, and Sam's new favorite game: schoolgirl shooter Gun Gal. And we take your tweets, call-ins and letters as usual.

We're finally back after a two week hiatus. And we're back for good! Tina, Sam, Chris and special guest Alice discuss the latest with EA buying the Angry Birds developers, Fallout New Vegas bugs, Medal of Honor, and uh, Oprah. We share our love for Costume Quest and Super Meat Boy, and then go into a WTF segment with Alice. And we finish everything off with questions and call-ins as always.

This week, the gang talks about scary stuff like the Taliban and Cthulu and God's toothpick, it must be huge! We talk confirmed delays (Gears 3), rumored cancelations (Ninjatown 2) and save the dates (the NY Comic-Con meetup). Minecraft is our reccession game and new favorite thing. Lastly, we respond to your letters and voice mails. Listening to this podcast will not give you bed bugs, promise.

Chris, missing? Boo! But Matt Leone gladly fills in on this week's show! We make fun of the TGS gallery, Halo Reach sales in Japan, Batman Arkham City, Medal of Honor being banned on military bases, and we take call-in questions!

This week, we're calling our show the atOdds cast. Why? We get Mike and Travis from at1UP to join us in Sam's absence. This week Chris rags on PlayStation Move, Tina complains about Halo Reach, we all discover what impact KFC has in Japan, wonder what you all think of Medal of Honor being banned by the military, and Sharkey loves Lord of the Rings online. As always, we take some pretty damn good call-in questions and letters.

We discuss where we've all been: LA, PAX, and where we're going: TGS. Sam talks about what he's looking forward to seeing, like The Last Guardian, and an empty Black Ops booth. The group is missing Chris' presence, but Alice is kind enough to join us.

The gang reunites after too long apart. We celebrate with good discussion. Capcom's cutting out the racism! Valve made a fairy game! Acclaim died, again! And for Recession Gaming: Robot wants fishy! All those exclamation points plus community questions in this week?s Oddcast. It's good to be back.

Sharkey is back from his vacation, but Sam is off in Germany. Matt sits in and is kind of an old grump about it all while we talk about Italians threatening to kneecap Mafia II for sterotyping them, play Icarus Proudbottom and the Curse of the Chocolate Fountain, and take questions, and chatter about what games we've had stolen from us. Also, some guy in Malawi claims to have grown lady parts but we're more blown away that Tina has apparently been reading Perez Hilton.

Sex! We "tee hee" a lot when it comes up. On this week's OddNews, we talk about Ratchet and Clank, Blizzard removing inappropriate maps in StarCraft II, and Activision making a move on hindering used game sales. Recession gaming involves the shooter in your pants, a.k.a. Privates. And we tangent off into a talk about cyber sex in World of Warcraft. With Scott Sharkey gone this week, we fill his place with another Scott from the office.

The whole crew is reunited after a short absence from Chris. Battlefield 3 is announced in a s****y way, the Gears of War movie adaptation is delayed, the Crayon Physics guy has another food game, and we talk about our Games to Play Before You Die feature. And we close off with our q and a segment.
