Drunken Gamers Radio

I have been looking for work for some time now, it is sucking my will to do anything. My day is made up of coffee, Job hunting, and the of playing video games. One thing that I do at the same time on a regular bases is to listen to podcasts.

The best podcast out there for me has to be Drunken Gamers Radio, as they Drink a lot and talk about Games. The hosts of DGR John, Moe and Hilden are not making any money from the podcast, in fact from what they say the have spent a lot of money on mics and podcasting equipment. This really does come across in the show as the sound is great every time. Most of the games they talk about are ones they have went out and got themselves, so if they don't like it, they will tell you if it was a waste of money. On the flip side if they got a worth while game they will sing its praise. There is a lot of gaming news and reviews that come from there point of view which you wont get anywhere else. Lastly add to that some of there own music like the shmopera (that you have to listen too) and dramatic forum readings make this the Best podcast out there. Why do they do it? They love games and they love sitting around in a basement in front of mics talking shit and drinking.

On there last Show (16/06/2009) They did a review of the game Prototype in which Hilden was talking about all the game play that has been stolen from other games. When the topic of hiding came up Moe Jumped in saying "let me guess, A box". At this I was rolling about laughing, if you haven't seen he Prototype absorbing or the use of a box in the Metal Gear games than it wont work for you

I am only one half of the webcomic that I wish to do. My long time friend is the writing half of the team. You can see some of his work at http://pandaswahey.blogspot.com/ .

I am going to be putting up a few comics that I can get out of my head and onto paper. There will also be other art put up. I will put up as much as I can as long as you, as readers of my Drivel will tell me what you think.

Now This was some failed attempts at drawing a helm of sorts. I think they are funny.
