I look back at a post of not long ago and see my celebration of passing the 200+ subscriber mark. Now 7BitArcade is in quadruple figures and the subscriber count is rising rapidly. Its more than exciting and every episode I feel the show gets stronger and stronger. When we hit 10,000 its champagne time.
OMGWOWHI and welcome to another episode of the famous 7 Bit Arcade. In this board game special, we recruit the help of board game connoiseur Christopher Boakes who shares his wry view on how video game could be turned into fully fledged board games. We wonder how the moderator on xbox live gets away with banning people, Stevie rants again and among other things, this podcast see’s the return of Eden who ignites proceedings with his dry banter and almost chaos inducing comments. All the usual features are in the bag as is the now famous ramble time, which includes Australia, Motion Control, Banning, Milo, Wrestling, Mass Effect 2, and more.
Listen to it here.
Its the fourth episode of the 7Bit saga and this time its business. Marvel as we manage to go 12 whole minutes without lowering the tone. We solve the problem of the infamous red ring and dispute whether monkeys prefer flags or bananas. In a new feature, Spanjj reviews a game live on the show and we ramble about iPads and map exploring. Eden’s absence causes the abuse to be fired in all directions in this manageable chunk of audio joy. Topics include: Burnout Paradise, Susan Boyle, Split Second, Microsoft Points, Gerbil Physics, New York, Fuzzies, Ticks, I Dig It, Breasts, MAG, Tumbleweed, Heavy Rain, iPads, AVP, Apocalyptos, Bayonetta, Vienetta, Bioshock 2, Milo and Sonic 4.

As 7BitArcade goes 600 subscribers strong the third episode also hits the gaming scene.
‘It’s Stevie’s Birthday on this rather special 7BitArcade podcast as he reaches the fine age of 12 years old (according to some sources).
Birthday Shenanigans include messages from The Newb Review, Pink & Deadly, Gamer Dork and the Frugal massive. Eden is assaulted numerous times for straying past his line but is also congratulated for buying his first bit of virtual real estate.
Subjects include Dragon Age, Pie Catapults, Demon Souls, Susan Boyle Cannons, Blood Bowl, Balloons, Lego Rock Band, Shallow Hal, Brutal Legend, XBox Woes, Dead Space, Ass Creed 2, Karate Monkey, Game Demakes, Beneath a Steel Sky Remastered, Virtual Space Stations, Shatter, New Years Resolutions, Army of Two, Unthinkable Sequels, Modern Warfare 2, Dark Void and the Vancouver Olympic Games.
Yes, that is a lot of subjects. What you gonna do? Wanna fight about it?’

As 7BitArcade flies past the 300+ subscriber mark I decided to guest on the Newb Review podcast. I joined Alan (braindead_hero) and Chell (Chellemo) from the Pink and Deadly podcast for a bit of a natter of what tickled our taste buds in the gaming world this year. Give it a listen on the Newb Review site right here.
Podcast Description: This week we bring you a special treat, a completely unplanned and unscripted episode. Braindead_hero sits down and talks to two of the greatest, funniest and most beautiful women to be found on the internet. These are of course Chellemo from www.pinkanddeadly.com and Spanjj from www.7bitarcade.com as we talk about the year 2009 in general.
