The fourth episode is still running in the PlayStation Home Community Theater but if you missed Episode #3, we've got you covered.
As we told you before, new episodes get exclusivity in Home for a few weeks, and then we're free to upload them to our YouTube Channel . Episode #3 is up there now so if you never saw it when it ran in Home, now's your chance to watch it. I start off by bemoaning the death of The Duke, and then we talk about various fun subjects, including Call of Duty: Black Ops (which gets threatened with a samurai sword), how reviewers often send critics a bunch of extra goodies, and the PS3/Xbox 360 exclusive debate. I put that sucker to rest; it's not close, it never was close, and it'll never be close. It's easy to just hit the link and watch; no going into Home required.
But you should get in there to check out new episodes if you can. Episode #5 is currently in the approval stages and we hope to get it up soon. As always, we'll let y'all know when it's done so we can party again. 🙂
Hi Ben, Just like to say it's great you put the episodes on youtube so that more people can see the show. I only have access to home when i take my ps3 round to my brothers place as my broadband is mobile rather landline supplied at my own place and so before the youtube postings i would have missed seeing what you guys had to say and show online, now i can see what everyone else is watching, cheers dude 🙂
Cool!
Just a word of friendly advice: When you guys got the chance, try to get a better suited microphone. One that is more directional and picks up less of the reverb from the room. Then you can add more punch to the audio too. 🙂

They could go for lav mics, i commented that on one of the episodes, for the looks of the last episode, Charles uses a camcorder (based on camera sounds when zooming in and out on the last scene). Which if they do it'd be pretty hard finding a microphone that sounds better than the camera's.
No no – lol – its *easy* to find a better microphone than the camcorder mic. Oh man, fact is it's hard to get *worse* sound than by using the integrated mic. Picking up the zoom motor noise is easily avoided using *any* other mic than the integrated one.
@Ben&co: Check out Røde camcorder mics, an Australian brand. Those are devilishly good and not too expensive. It would make an enormous difference.
Ok so the charset problem on this site strikes in full effect. 🙂
The roede mics is what I tried to say, but spelled with the norwegian letter for "oe" (I find that to be very cool of course, especially since it is made down under).
See rodemic com, check out the "videomic". I promise, they are incredibly good.

Isn't the next episode in Home tomorrow night? Or am I just assuming a one episode every two weeks schedule?

We try to do that but it's really hard. I don't think it'll be there tomorrow; it might be in next week. We'll see, though.
Oh, no problem Ben, I just wasn't sure. I absolutely understand that it's a lot of work, especially considering you're already quite busy.
The Duke isn't dead! At least I refuse to admit he is. Great sales on name recognition isn't exactly a triumph but if 2K can take that money and send Gearbox on a mission to fix Duke after Borderlands 2 is out then he's got a shot. If you suffered through Forever you won't forget this:
"What kinda sh*t ending is that? I ain't Dead, I'm comin' back for more"
I just watched the third one, cool show Ben, I had to defend you a little in the comments cuz they were calling you fat, lol.
Great show, my buddy Nick could probably do you up a sweet intro if you wanted. You've given me a good reason to give Assassin's Creed a fourth shot at winning me over: the environments. As a big fan of history maybe if I focus on that I can get into it.
they were calling him fat!? wtf i think he looks macho!
Great show, keep em coming!
I still haven't seen Ep 1!!!
Ben really needed to be brandishing a 2-handed broadsword shouting "By Krom!" with those beefy arms instead of using that wimpy katana =p
Wot i loved most wen i got to see the show was Ben, he, like me is a large guy who may have possibly missed afew gym sessions, but blows away the cliche of the fat, long-haired comic book guy character from simpsons that most people have of gamers 🙂 I'm nearly 6ft tall, weigh nearly 17 stone and when people find out i'm a gamer they can't believe it, stuff like this helps to show people everyone can be a gamer 🙂 Psx rocks dude 🙂
