Dishonored, the new stealth-action game from Arkane and Bethesda has certainly been one of the highlights of 2012. Jeff and Nick take this opportunity to have a detailed discussion of Dishonored while focusing more on a few of the games shortcomings. If you have not yet finished the game, avoid the ending because we close out the podcast with a little spoiler filled discussion about the game's ending.  SPOILER WARNING: 17:00 - End Dishonored - [download] [podcast]http://4playernetwork.com/podcasts/audible/AI_Dishonored.mp3[/podcast]

Mike makes his long awaited return to the podcast to regale us with tales of his travels in Dishonored. We spend some time talking about "The Unfinished Swan," a downloadable indie title that Sony adopted and pushed as another colorful addition to their digital catalog. On the topic of Sony, we spend a lot of time cursing them for some unsavory business decisions. Other big titles like Assassins Creed 3, Bioshock Infinite, and Cyberpunk 2077 come up in the news as we start to slide into the big release season.  Podcast 290 - [download] [podcast]http://4playernetwork.com/podcasts/4pp/290-10.18.2012.mp3[/podcast] Discussion: The Unfinished Swan Dishonored XCOM: Enemy Unknown EX Troopers Sony Playstation All Stars: Battle Royale Trouble with Bioshock Infinite (+ Collectors Edition Details) CD Projekt Red Unveil Cyberpunk 2077 Assassin's Creed 3 Multiplayer  Follow us on Twitter Fan us on Facebook 4Player Podcast theme music is courtesy of Overclocked Remix: Click Here to Download Enjoy the show?

Our E3 2012 and PAX Prime Games of Show (Dishonored & XCOM Enemy Unknown) have finally hit and they are doing a lot to fill the void left by the disappointing release of Resident Evil 6. We have some serious game of the year contenders here folks! In the second segment, we talk Cliff Bleszinski and his surprise departure from Epic Games as well as some unfortunate stipulations put forth by Microsoft that will restrict us from streaming Halo 4 or any other major Microsoft published title in the future.  Podcast 289 - [download] [podcast]http://4playernetwork.com/podcasts/4pp/289-10.10.2012.mp3[/podcast] Discussion: Resident Evil 6 Dishonored XCOM: Enemy Unknown Cliff Bleszinski Leaves Epic Games Microsoft Prohibits Prohibits Streaming for Profit  Follow us on Twitter Fan us on Facebook 4Player Podcast theme music is courtesy of Overclocked Remix: Click Here to Download Enjoy the show?

It is a sad sad week for anyone who once called themselves fans of the famed Resident Evil series. Resident Evil 6 has arrived and as we predicted since the release of the new demo, the game is disappointing in a lot of ways. We struggle to find redeeming qualities in that game but have instead found satisfaction in FTL, a surprise hit indie title that has taken the industry by storm in recent weeks.  Podcast 288 - [download] [podcast]http://4playernetwork.com/podcasts/4pp/288-10.04.2012.mp3[/podcast] Discussion: Resident Evil 6 FTL Sleeping Dogs  Follow us on Twitter Fan us on Facebook 4Player Podcast theme music is courtesy of Overclocked Remix: Click Here to Download Enjoy the show?

Sorry for the delay this week. We have been scrambling to get the new website up and running so the podcast had to take a back seat. We wrap up some thoughts on Sleeping Dogs and Borderlands 2 this week and then give Brad and Carlos a chance to talk about their adventures at a local indie gaming event. We also touch on the highly anticipated release of XCOM: Enemy Unknown. O yeah... fart noises. Did I mention we launched a new website today?  Podcast 287 - [download] [podcast]http://4playernetwork.com/podcasts/4pp/287-09.27.2012.mp3[/podcast] Discussion: Sleeping Dogs XCom Enemy Unknown (Demo) Borderlands 2 Tokyo Jungle Fantastic Fest Arcade  Follow us on Twitter Fan us on Facebook 4Player Podcast theme music is courtesy of Overclocked Remix: Click Here to Download Enjoy the show?

Arriving with the Summer of Arcade 2012 line up, Dust An Elysian Tail is a member of a genre that's seeing a declining membership these days: 2D metroidvanias. With that said, Nolan and Nick take a look at this beautifully animated title for this week's Audible Impressions.

Borderlands 2 has landed and Resident Evil 6 is peaking over the horizon. Unfortunately, one of these two titles is not looking so hot to any of those sitting around the table on this show. We also discuss the awesomeness of Torchlight 2 and shed some insight on the recent announcement of Dragon Age 3.

One of the year's biggest surprises sneaks up on us this week and slits our throats... silently. Mark of the Ninja has proven itself as both worthy of your $15 and as one of the best stealth ninja games in the past decade! We also discuss the continuing success of the Walking Dead Telltale Series, Tekken Tag 2, and the senseless mass genocide that we must endure during turret sequences in games.

Was it a bad idea to try and record a podcast with 6 people, 4 microphones, and shots of Vodka? Yes it was. Of course, that would never stop us from doing such a thing! We are only together in the same place two or three times a year so consider this a celebration of sorts! We try our best to stay focused on games like Dead Island Riptide, State of Decay, and Aliens Colonial Marines but the alcohol flowed freely and so did our minds! If you like listening to the ramblings of a crazy person (Joseph) or have been curious as to what it means to be "White Girl Wasted," this is the show for you!
