Hi All!  I am very sorry to bring you the news that the Live 100th Episode of The Axe Factor has been postponed.  

No, this is not some lame attempt by Brent and I to make a statement about last minute game delays (although perhaps we could turn it in to that).  It is far less interesting, actually.  The truth is that I, Lorin, am sick (hold the comments).  I was hoping I would be well enough by Saturday to do the show but, alas, I am not.

As we want the 100th Episode to be as powerful and awesome as you guys are, and deserve, we decided it would be better not to half-ass it, but do wait a week so we could go full-awesome!!!

So there will be no Axe Factor this week.  But the LIVE 100th EPISODE AXESTRAVAGANZA of The Axe Factor will occur at the same time as previously scheduled, only next Saturday, January 12th.  That is 2-4pm EST (UTC/GMT-5).

We really hope this doesn't cause anyone too much inconvenience for anyone and reiterate that we are only doing it because you deserve the best (that's what she said)!

Thanks again and ready your weapons for the most awesome show ever on Jan 12th!  

Cry Havoc!

But I quit my job to listen tomorrow!

Does this mean we get The Axe Factor 99 7/8 in the interim?

Comment by Lavitz on January 4, 2013 at 3:41pm

Next week I'll be out of town and unable to listen to the show. :-/  Oh well, I'll listen to the recording.

I'm also fighting a cold (this holiday season kicked my ass...) so I completely understand. Get well soon, Lorin!

@Uncle Dude - just don't look for a new one until after next week and you should be good :)  And sadly no, there will be no interim show.

@Lavitz - Sorry you will miss the show.  Thanks for the well wishes though!

@Lorin - Through my tears, I missed the part about you being sick. Hope you feel better soon, brudda.

What a shame, but not to worry the show will go on in just a weeks time (assuming Brent isn't sick next!) touch wood... :)

Comment by Raminder Singh on January 4, 2013 at 4:57pm

Get well soon, Lorin.

Will there be any changes to the topics for the new episode date?

The Axe Factor Poll!

How much does the Xbox One-Nvidia "scandal" bother YOU?
A lot. This is one step removed from the Killzone 2 pre-rendered E3 trailer0%
I don't care as long as the games look this good running on Xbox One hardware (which they probably will)0%
Not at all, people are being naive to think this practice doesn't happen all the time0%
I'll reserve judgement until we see if the games look noticeably different on Xbox One hardware0%

Today I 'ave been mostly rememberin': Metroid Games

As I am typing this, we're deep inside the annual summer gaming drought of 2013. The last interesting current gen game I played was Bioshock Infinite. I'm now waiting patiently for The Last of Us to drop through the mail slot. In the interim, I have amused myself by going back and playing a whole bunch of the old Metroid titles. And I've had an absolute blast doing so. It's been one of the most nostalgic and satisfying gaming periods of my entire life. I replayed and finished all five of the…

What is your greatest wish/expection for the new generation?

After some discussion with the axeheads I asked myself what I want out of the next generation of gaming. And my answer is suprising. |It is neither better grafics or better AI. It does not even have to do with hardware.

What I want from the next generation the most is the introduction of used game sales for digital games. As soon as one of the major platforms does that I will go all digital, never looking back.

So, what would you like to see?

Nintendo Says: If devs are worried about used game sales, they should make better games

This bold statement was made by Nintendo and features on the Polygon site.

Personly i do, considering that most of the games made today and which are gonna be made for the Next-Generation of konsoles will be like before.

EpicBattleCry - E3 2013 Special

Step one: its EpicBattleCry! E3 2013 has played host to exciting game news, dramatic moments, and, some would claim, out-and-out homicide. From EA dropping the AT-AT foot to Jack Tretton dropping the mic, this year's Electronic Entertainment Expo will certainly go down as one of the most memorable. With DK still on full-time looking-good-in-LA duty, Brent and Tony sat down to discuss Nintendo's showing at this year's show, the fallout (good and bad) from Sony and…

Sarah Is the most important character in THE LAST OF US. Here's why....*MASSIVE SPOILERS*

Started by Abberjam in Game Discussions. Last reply by Rialce 17 hours ago. 3 Replies

The Last Of Us is a slow game, intentionally slow, because it has a story to tell and takes the time to do it. Naughty Dog knows that if you're not making an "action" game, then you need to engage…Continue
