Episode 8 is all about E3 2009. Jeff made the trip to LA Convention Center and came back with a lot to talk about, including pre-E3 press events, everything LucasArts had to show, plus several other behind closed doors demos and other games at the show.

Release date: 16 June 2009

Summary:

What games we are playing
E3!
The Big 3 Press Conferences
LucasArts Games at E3
Mass Effect 2
Dragon Age: Origins
Everything else Jeff played at E3

Comments:

This cast is a special E3 edition and is uncut. That means a couple things, first that there may be a bit of swearing that is not censored, and second is that we're not as pro as Niner makes us sound on the other casts. Hope you enjoy! And please leave us comments! Let us know what you think of the episode, and if you have any questions you want answered on the show, use our contact form or email us at questions@lucascast.com.

XD Referring to yourself in third person in your own post...

***Jeff*** · 06-17-2009, 12:20 AM

jerk you should have posted this while I was at work it could have been up way sooner >:|

You meanies; you gave BioWare close to half an hour of discussion, but you didn't even mention Obsidian and Alpha Protocol.

If Alpha Protocol isn't given at least 10 minutes of discussion next podcast, then LucasCast will be henceforth known as BioWare-biased.

***StarWarsPhreak*** · 06-17-2009, 12:44 PM

I am very disappointed in you Moe. You should be ashamed of yourself for not having played Mass Effect yet.

Great podcast.

Trust me, I wanted to but we just didn't have time. Alpha Protocol was definitely one of the best things I got to see at E3.

If Jeff hadn't been speaking like Shatner, we would've had time.

EnderWiggin · 06-17-2009, 09:38 PM

Wish you would have talked about Alpha Protocol, but, otherwise, good cast.

I'm almost afraid to ask what 'and sometimes not even that' is supposed to mean.

***Rogue Nine*** · 06-21-2009, 02:20 AM

C'mon guys, I can't be the only guy that plays SFIV on 360 here! We need to get some friendly matches going.

Gamertag is right here -----------------------------------------V

urluckyday · 06-21-2009, 02:29 AM

^I'm waiting for the price to drop before I get it...and I'm getting the PC version if the price doesn't drop by it's release date (July 7th)...I'll play ya (and probably lose horribly) if I get it!

***Rogue Nine*** · 06-21-2009, 02:43 AM

It's $49.99 used at GameStop!

***Jeff*** · 06-21-2009, 02:51 AM

Niner nobody wants that game because the AI cheats.

I'll play you more though if you let me get all the online achievements.

***Rogue Nine*** · 06-21-2009, 02:59 AM

There's a lot of those, so we'd have to play a lot.

edlib · 06-21-2009, 12:30 PM

I always play inverted stick. Can't cope the other way.

***Jeff*** · 06-21-2009, 04:31 PM

That's how much the PC version will cost new probably, though I think you do get a gamepad with it as a bundle.

urluckyday · 06-21-2009, 04:37 PM

^Amazon has the PC version (w/ out gamepad...I'll be using my 360 controller) for $38.

You're right, you're NOT the only one here that plays SFIV on 360.

Anyways, I finally listened to this episode (hey, I'm way too busy with mah DS games) and as always, it was great! Like I told leXX a couple of days ago after finishing the first one, Mass Effect 2 is definitely my most anticipated game right now.

***Rogue Nine*** · 07-03-2009, 12:07 AM

Yeah well, I need to play more than just you, Kus. I can only take so many headstomps. x.x

Astrotoy7 · 07-03-2009, 09:55 AM

@Moeller >> Im surprised you didnt mention Assassins Creed 2. Did you see/play it at all ?

I only got to see videos of it on the show floor, they didn't have anyone showing it off down there and we didn't get a chance to check out their meeting room to see if they could squeeze us in. That is one of my most anticipated games too though.
