    One point I will make - the first podcast (pilot) was funnier.
    In fairness the aim is not a comedy podcast - but it helps.

    Well done with the first podcast (and the pilot episode before that). My expectations were quite low before listening but I look forward to future episodes.

    I would suggest sorting out the volume levels so listeners don't get blasted out of it every time you play one of your musical interludes. I was listening to the second one late at night and, while I wanted to hear the mumbled parts, I didn't want to wake the co-dwellers... coz then they'd want to be fed... and it was after midnight, sooo...

    really enjoyed the pilot.

    Didn't realise the 2nd episode was up yet as my RSS feed seemed to be corrupted. Downloading it now.

    Think it is really important for podcasts to be regular...builds up a core audience and people can look forward to it as opposed to guessing when the next episode is coming out.

    Is the video version going to be similar to something like TRS?

    the RSS feed was shagged but its fixed now, so apoligies,
    right now its every monday though but we're recording on sundays so i would imagine, when the site is up properly we'll see it after recording on the sunday nights,
    regards the show well hopefully this week and next we might get recording definately within the month, i don't think either of us see it like TRS but right now its hard to compare our vision of it to anything else, on the spot is just ****, 1up show is to scripted and also just pretty ****, and other than consolevania/videoGaiden theres not anything that i myself perticularily enjoy watching, and again we're staying clear of that kind of style, it's gonna veer more towards editorials, topical content/news, probably reviews, previews, possibly some humoury stuff, we're not really ruling much out but saying that we have to keep our focus so its a tough balance. . . end rant.
    thanks again for the feedback keep it coming.

    edit . . will try keep the levels more regular alot is down to me not speaking clearly and loudly enough at all times, but that'll certainly improve.

    Just listenend to the latest show - still going good. Nice to see its sticking to the weekly thing fairly rigidly. Maybe some slight quibbles about the levels on Denis' mic. Perhaps he's moving his head around too much :D

    Still looking forward to the first video show.

    Get the finger out!!!

    It is hard to successfully pull off this type of endeavor...I believe MUCH harder than most think

    But "practice makes perfect"

    Just noticed the podcast is number 30 overall on itunes (ireland) - not in the games section - in the whole podcast section.

    28. Clubland Podcast
    29. Statler & Waldorf: From the Balcony
    30. Citizen Game Podcast
    31. American Idol Podcast
    32. The Ray Foley Show

    And its number 1 in the games section.

    Well done lads!

    A question for the next podcast:

    Is Pro Ev on the Wii the way forward for soccer games or is it merely a rather good novelty, ultimately to be forgotten in favour of the traditional FIFA / Pro Ev approach?

    Also - will the clearly inferior graphics on the Wii hinder what might be a very important evolution in the genre? Should they have eschewed realism altogether in favour of more stylised (cartoony) graphics?

    Love,

    RE*AC*TOR
