Mind Of UPSLynx: Week of Aug 16th

Bobby Miller 22 Aug, 2009 at 5:48pm ET Article published in Tech

This week on Mind, Lynx is on the road for a special round table interview with Grimnoc and Bindle Stick. We discuss the plethora of Icrontic events such as Summer Shindig, Labor Day Weekend Bash, a camping trip in Iowa, Icrontic goes Renaissance, and of course, the beerfully excellent event Icrontic Oktoberfest. Then we discuss vidya games, such as the recently announced PS3 Slim, and the retro wonderful Tales of Monkey Island. Other topics were Heroes of Newerth and GenCon 2009. Enough of this reading stuff, watch the show!

23 Aug 2009 ~ 5:17am DrLiam Different set-up for sure but it worked. I'm actually surprised the sound turned out so well. Looks like there would be some wind disturbance or voice volume problems... good job.

23 Aug 2009 ~ 2:20pm Grimnoc I swear I'm not a douche, but it is fun acting up within a chosen a persona.

I didn't bring my mic to this shoot (forgot it at home :P) and I too was surprised the audio turned out so well. Grimnoc and I actually spent a good half hour or more trying to find a well-lit area on campus, semi-attractive surroundings, and was shielded from the wind (which was rather high, as you can tell from the time ramp at the end.).

I would really like to have a co-host or guests more often, I just haven't figured out a way to do it regularly, and unfortunately driving 2 hours south once a week isn't feasable. I'll gladly take suggestions on any ideas of how to accomplish this.

We'll just start the ICtv network :P
24 Aug 2009 ~ 10:30am Snarkasm I'm tellin' you - electronic roundtables. Get people in there from Skype or GChat or whatever.
24 Aug 2009 ~ 11:24am Thrax ^ This. You can always pipe people in via skype, just like Leo's webcast.
24 Aug 2009 ~ 12:42pm UPSLynx That's the one method I always thought about. Any recommendations on how to capture?
24 Aug 2009 ~ 5:13pm wahay The price of the PS3 Slim is 300USD? WHAT THEâ€”

That doesn't make any sense. I wanted one ever since MGS4. There are a few bitchin' games along the way (like Little Big Planet) also have me pining.
24 Aug 2009 ~ 5:19pm Snarkasm Is that a good or a bad thing to you?
24 Aug 2009 ~ 5:23pm Thrax I totally could not tell either.
