a+
thanx major, have a good week.
Correct...this is 209.
Does it help if I add the show # in the file name? If so I'll remember to do that in the future.
meh dont mind about the file name just you had it in before. for me as long as the ID3 tags are in i could careless about the file name.
Hey, I don't know if anyone is having this problem, but when I use the WMA link, i can get only about 10 seconds into the show and it stops...
This one shows up as "Show #208 The one about the COD3 Maps" in iTunes
Thanks major,
will help me work on my java for uni in 5 hours :D
I am unaware if this has been asked before, but are there any plans to have this podcast distributed over Live itself? It seems to stand to reason that those who are interested most in this podcast are those already on the Live service and some might enjoy the added functionality of being able to hear the podcast while playing say...Gears of War. Simply curious about the possibility of Live gaining a sort of informal voice inside the system. Thanks.
So, how did this CoD3 Valor Map Pack sneak past it's way through the certification process at Microsoft? Talk about sloppy work, Major. Good going. Yet, MS f's up again!
Nice show this week!
YES YES YES! Games for Windows stuff would be sweet.
Hey this is a little off topic, but I was messin around on my tivo, and I found out that I can sign up for your rss feeds on the tivo, and then listen to them on there. I just thought that was pretty cool.
Is it just general info on the COD3 maps or is there some problems going on?
yeah, cut the ID3 tags to just saying Major Nelson Blogcast Episode #xxx
so major hows ur Pris
Great show, Major.
I have to laugh, though, at the comment that the developers of CoD3 have great communication with the community.
So far, I've not seen an acknowledgement that there are significant issues with online play, especially concerning ranked matches and/or general connection issues in player matches. In addition, there's been no mention of a patch to address these concerns.
While I love the fact that the developers are releasing additional downloadable content, I'd be happier if they were supporting the core product needed to PLAY this additional content.
Something nice to end the weekend considering the Patriots lost.
Yeah, Lets all piss trixe off.
everyone send her an email saying that
It definitely helps when you put the # in the filename, especially when I'm streaming your podcast to my 360. Anyway haven't had a chance to listen yet so I'll have to wait to see who got the name the game.
I can't believe the saints lost. That sucks. They were America's team.
Ranked matches need fixing. I have only managed to play 1 game. I am seriously considering trading in this game due to the many issues this game has.
The girls from Girls Gone Wild are dumb? I could've sworn a MBA was required to appear on that.
