Podcast wrapup - Bionic Commando, the XNA network, and everything in between

Podcasts aplenty throughout the week - a lot of it very interesting stuff.

1. Xbox 360 Fanboy has the entire "Blogger's Breakfast" up for download. Bloggers Breakfast has become a tradition for Microsoft - inviting people like Kotaku and Joystiq to ask their own questions outside of the big guns like 1up and IGN.

Fancast Xtra: Microsoft GDC08 blogger breakfast

It's been a long week, Fanboys. It's currently after midnight Pacific Time and we've still got plenty of GDC08 coverage to pump out (mostly for mother Joystiq, so make sure you keep a lookout over there), but we wanted to make sure everyone in the X3F community got a chance to listen to the Microsoft blogger breakfast, which is becoming something of a tradition at GDC.

2. Xbox 360 Fanboy has ANOTHER podcast with an interview with the people behind Pirates Vs. Ninjas Dodgeball.

Xbox 360 Fancast 056 -- Hey-oh!

Well kids, GDC is upon us once again. As such, we spent much of the day on a plane today (it was still Monday Pacific time when we started writing this) and the rest of the day taking in what we could of the conference.

Oh, and we should probably mention that we have an interview with Chris Stockman of Blazing Lizard, creators of Pirates Vs. Ninjas Dodgeball. Not only that, but if you listen carefully, you'll get a very revealing hint concerning the fifth and final team in the game. Listen, learn, and experience the true joy of enlightenment.

3. 1UP Yours @ GDC discuss games like Dishwasher: Dead Samurai, and other XNA games, and Bionic Commando Rearmed as well as some Indie stuff that has been shown around, as well as Denis Dyack and his one console future.

1UP Yours: "A One Console Future"

Denis Dyack joins the crew, along with old friend Mark MacDonald. Wherein we discuss Mark's favorite topics of GDC, how the press covers games, and of course, the one-console future.

4. Angry-Gamer.net has a few of the chaps all the way in GDC and discuss some of the Indie stuff they've seen. The sound levels are a bit off but I'd a decent listen either way!

Angry Gamer Podcast GDC 08

LIVE from Games Developers Conference 2008, comes a hip and happening Angry Gamer Podcast! Questions such as "Does Peter Molyneux make a good woman?", "Why the hell wasn't the Ralph Baer thing packed full of people?" and "Where can I get a drink around here?" are all answered!

5. IGN Game Scoop! discusses the newly released N+, as well as a ton of stuff from GDC

Game Scoop! Episode 69

It's been a long week, but we made it through GDC. It's about 7pm here in the IGN office and we just finished recording this week's Scoop! It's packed with news from the Conference, but honestly I'm too tired to recap it all here. Instead, enjoy this impressive fan art from altoidyoda after the break.

6. 1UP Yours @ GDC. Well it only just went up, haven't had a chance to listen to it yet, but it should mention some stuff somewhere!

1UP Yours: "Beat the Press"

The final show of a busy GDC week brings our friends N'Gai Croal, Stephen Totilo, and John Davison to the studio for what they thought of the entire conference, including Prototype, death and consequences in games, Nintendo's pay-for-play online plans, and a final Stephen Totilo's "Deep Thoughts."
