After playing Star Trek Online for nearly three weeks Rik & Mat have unlocked the ability to record a podcast on Deep Space Nine. They also talk to Gaming Bob about playing games and Developer Dave about designing them!
We’re happy that Brent over at VirginWorlds has added us to his rolling podcast feed. You can checkout many other great podcasts through Virginworlds HERE
But the main focus of Virginworlds are the members of the Collective. There are literally hundreds of hours of game related chat for your listening pleasure – some of my personal favourites include Shut Up We’re Talking, Equal Perspectives, and of course the original Virginworlds MMORPG News

Mat has been to the shop to buy more rubbish games he’ll never play while Rik has got him playing Star Trek Online by virtue of the Hailing Frequency competition (Rik won the prize of a Deluxe Edition, gave it to Mat, and watched him totally ignore all the bonus goodies – and he’s really annoyed about it – but hasn’t said anything).
We mess about in game and give our impressions. We also try to explore (ie; go somewhere without a mission!) Does the game support this radical concept? Listen in to find out!
Rik attempts to give structure to the show and Mat does his very best to de-rail that notion. A trio of fairly mundane topics surprise us by giving rise to some remotely stimulating discussion! For us perhaps only! We’re certainly enjoying ourselves doing these podcasts…it’s addictive, like those computer games the young people play! Or so I’m told.
We cover:
The memories of the early games we played – and how they compare to the current fare.
Is Bill Gates having a laugh?
And the joys of PC World?
In three nice, neat segments.
That’ll be the day…
What we’ve been playing? Mat has been vegging out with Oblivion and Rik has been waving his lighstaber in KOTOR in preperation for The Old Republic. We talk about our impressions of both games.
Show Notes:
Are MMOs all they’re cracked up to be?
What happened to white dog poo?
And why can’t Mat stop melting the bleep machine with his foul sweary mouth?
