The Video Games Show

Summary: The Video Games Show (or VGS for short) is a weekly gaming industry news podcast hosted by Rich Bergin, Nick Kraftor and Greg the Engineer. While there are plenty of podcasts out there that deal with games themselves we take a closer look at the companies and people behind those games and what they are doing. News isn't the only thing we do though, we bring you reviews of the latest games, interviews with industry hot-shots and take special care to interact with our audience via email and our website. Rich and Kraft have over 50 years of gaming experience between them and VGS itself is over 8 years old! Tune in every Thursday when new episodes hit the net.

It is a short show, but a fun one none the less.  We tackles some interesting news on the WiiU front that actually has Kraft excited, marvel at Rich Bergin's on-drugs-antics, and discover that our own Playtex Keith has had an Xbox 360 for years without us knowing about it!  Don't forget next week will be a remote broadcast from the Maplewood Gamestop!

This week's news brings about the end of a legacy that has probably affected all of us at some point or another.  Join Rich and Kraft as we revel in our past experiences with Nintendo Power as the dynasty draws to a close.  We also discuss a very possible WiiU release date, upcoming holiday season discounts and bundles, and grill Big Josh with hard-hitting questions about genitalia!  Check out all this and more on this week's clean-tag-challenging Video Games Show!

 VGS Show 371 (7.23.12) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:14:57

We're back to cover the fallout of the Steam Summer Sale, update you on the status of our new favorite kickstarter (OUYA) and sing the praises of Spider Jesus!  Come join us for another action-packed* episode of the world famouse Video Games Show!  (*Warning:  Contains no action.)

 VGS Show 370 (7.10.12) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:35:53

So there is a new game system that gained financing in one day, we discuss the intricacies of Jesus getting bit by a radioactive spider, and Keith brings what he considers "the funny"... we begged to differ.  Please enjoy this on-time world famous Video Games Show!

 VGS Show 369 (7.2.12) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:10:09

News, reviews, etc.  All this and more on this week's Video Games Show!

 VGS 368 (6.18.12) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:11:36

We apologize for the lateness of this show and the lack of a show this week.  Just FYI, summer class is about to end which will add a WHOLE lot of extra time into the schedule and hopefully allow for more consistency with the show.  We thank everyone for their patience as we do try to put out a fairly consistent free product.  This week we cover the remainder of the e3 news scraps, talk a little more Diablo 3 and do a couple off-the-cuff reviews.  We hope you enjoy this all new Video Games Show!

 VGS Show 367 (6.11.12) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 02:36:09

E3 has come and gone.  We have what little news hit the airwaves from that, and Rich tells everyone why he hates you and you shouldn't listen to us...  Kraft still loves you, though.  Who thought something like that would have been typed into show notes?  Check out this extended edition of the World Famous Video Games Show!

 VGS Show 366 (5.29.12) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:05:17

Short news show as we near E3 next week.  We run into more drama concerning Diablo 3, games begin having their release dates pushed back, and we chat with BongoParty about the new computer that the VGS Minecraft server will be heading towards.  Check out all this and more on this week's all new Video Games Show!

 VGS Show 365 (5.21.12) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:06:06

We take a trip to VStock to introduce Station Manager Keith to the nerd-vana that it is.  We talk quite a bit about Blizzard and Diablo 3 amongst other things.  This episode, though, devolves into a music talk show.  Still pretty fun though.  Join us next Tuesday for a new show as the station will be closed for Memorial Day.

 VGS Show 364 (5.15.12) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 51:24

Again, it was totally our intention to record our live broadcast from yesterday, but the cards weren't in our favor.  In fact, the cards were so out of our favor we accidentally fried about 1000 dollars worth of audio equipment and couldn't even broadcast.  We do hope you enjoy our follow-up as Rich, Kraft, and Keith recap the events of last night and cover a bit of the news you've missed out on.

 VGS Show 363 (5.07.12) | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 01:18:39

Kraft, while present, takes a backseat this week as he studies for finals giving Brandon his first true chance to shine.  Of course by "shine" we mean almost start a race war.  News comes secondary to this bit of awesomeness on this week's Video Games Show!

 VGS Show 362 Part 2 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 45:19

Somehow we accidentally spliced the end of 360 onto the last episode rather than the end of 362... a big thanks to Matt C. for giving us the heads up!  Here is the final part of show 362 (hopefully).
