Ep. 11 – Three Inches

by Tim on September 26th, 2005 with No Comments

Heya Widget-heads! Sorry about the delay, ol’ Tim’s weekend was jammed packed with activities that prevented him from getting the show out sooner. But enough with the third-person speak, this is about Episode 11 dammit! This week, we talk about how awesome our fanbase is for making our forum such a great success. Also, we give a hint about our possible future guest, that maybe we can talk into coming on… plus, the alleged leaked Revolution specs, why PC gaming may be dying, our review of the Serious Sam 2 demo, a long-winded discussion about cell phone providers, and how Tim completed OutRun 2 pissed off his arse. All this and more in Episode 11: 3 Inches From The Edge!

Ep. 8 – “I am The Widget!”

by Tim on September 3rd, 2005 with No Comments

Even in the midst of a gas crisis (at the pumps and with Zane), The Widget crew carries on with our mission of vulgarity and knowledge! This week, we talk about Zane’s fab new processor, the Athlon 64 X2. Also, the PS3’s rumored weakness, the mandatory mention of gas prices and Ryan’s solution, the new iTrip, Creative’s lawsuit against Apple, Tim’s Retro Corner, we answer our audiences burning questions, and much more. And of course, Zane’s incoherent ramblings.

SHOW LINKS WILL BE UP LATER (sorry guys)
