Most important hurdle:

How would you record this?

TeamSpeak (or other service VoIP) along with recording software.

That would be rather chaotic.

It's doable. Like Nordlead said, I'd have things outlined, and we'd do a few practice sessions first to et the rhythm of our conversations down.

how else would you record a podcast with people all over the country?

Obviously you'd have to have 1 host, and 2-3 guests. The host would have to direct questions so people don't talk over each other. Ever watch "around the horn" on ESPN. It would be the same thing only without video. Heck, Khuutra could even put in sound effects when he mutes someone because they are being stupid.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

I would love it

The question is who would be on it?

@dsister:

It would be audio-only and relatively low bitrate, so it shouldn't be as big a problem.

@PlaystaionGamer:

Inability to own a console does not mean that one is biased. For example, Kantor only owns Sony platforms this gen, but I would be more than happy to put him in whatever part of the rotation he wanted.

@psrock:

Well that depends on if you want to be, and what kind of rotation we end up getting set up.

Would be a really good idea.

Just make sure there is a mix of fans from each company doing it



                            

I would listen to such a thing.



It could be cool but you'd need a strong host. I'm sure the first few 'casts would go through some growing pains but it could be fun for everyone involved.

As others said, it would be best to limit the 'cast to a few questions so it doesn't tangent off in a crazy direction. Around The Horn is a good example. I'd try to keep it under half an hour as well, otherwise it could get too drawn out.

I'd be happy to pop in and complain about games some time. I've never tried a podcast before and I've been playing enough games lately to work up a frothy hatred of several things.

Well I proposed something like this well over a year ago trying to get people interested in this and well that fell through. Didn't have many members on board and mods were either too busy or just didn't care.

When it comes to podcast, I know how to run them, edit them, upload them and well everything because I've done many before so I'd definitely be on board for it. But hey they are lot more difficult to run than one would think.



Sounds like an excellent idea. I'm game.
