It must be another week as there’s a new episode of the Van Hemlock podcast up. This week we have a very special guest. Well we have a guest. Well Matt from Limited Edition joins us. You can find the show at virginworlds, but if your oppressive internet regime doesn’t let you see that you can also listen to it here. But listen to it there if you can. And then go listen to the rest of the shows hosted there as they’re all good. Especially Limited Edition. Time for the Melvyn Bragg style after show commentary. We don’t have...

It’s that time of week again, we’ve released the Van Hemlock Podcast Episode 52. In this weeks slightly longer episode (somebody ignored my frantic “Stop talking now!” gesturing for a good half hour) we cover some news then go mad with a nice long talk about what we’re playing. I’m doing badly on the old “actually playing anything” stakes again I’m afraid, but Van Hemlock more than makes up with it for not playing Free Realms. Constantly. Night and day. This week the twitter question was "L44 in CoH and the end is in sight! Which MMOs, if any, have you...

Too busy to blog is, I think, an excuse and not a valid reason.I don't even need to think of a topic as the weekly podcast is reason enough to post. So here is last weeks show, Episode 51, which ia another live broadcast (why do I say live, it's just as recorded as the other episodes but just has worse sound), this time with the guys from Killed in a Smilling Accident. And now, in Melvyn Bragg style after hhe records In Our Time, I shall comment on what I think we missed in the episode. We avoided the chance to...

I keep forgetting to pimp my own podcast, which probably says something about me that I really don't want to know. This week we're trying something new and as well as recapping the news we're poking at the bee hive that is the internet and wading in with opinion on a few blogs posts. Van Hemlock Episode 38 If you care about BoB being destroyed, how successful Warhammer is or if boobies are a good thing then this is the episode for you. Or not.

This year promises to be the start of a big push to put MMOs onto consoles. Previously we’ve only had games such as Everquest Online Adventures and Final Fantasy XI Online which, to be fair, haven’t been massive successes on the consoles. This year will see the first few games sneak onto consoles. It’s unclear at the moment which ones will make it, but games such as DC Universe Online, Freerealms and Age of Conan are all threatening to release on consoles sometime soon. The age of console MMOs is upon us, but what does that mean? The benefits of putting MMOs...

We've released our 20th show, which has some rambling about news and cutting edge reviews of Warhammer Online and A Tale in the Desert. I suspect one of us didn't read the brief again. You can grab it from the usual place, Virginworlds.com.

I've not announced a new podcast here for a while, but I can rectify that now. Van Hemlock Episode 19 is now posted, and we talk about PvP. Everybody please tell us why we're wrong and what we've missed :)

Oh yes, blog. I keep forgetting about that, I'm far too busy to think nowadays. It's something to do with Eve and weekly podcasts I think. Episode 15 of the podcast is here. It's a bit different this week as we go all chatty and discuss guilds, corps and cities in online games, with stops in Guildwars, Eve and SWG. And I'm King not Queen, OK?

I haven't mentioned this weeks podcast here, but I doubt anybody only finds it from this blog. Anyway, podcast 11 (live from a time before good recording equipment) is up over at Virginworlds.

Show 10 of the podcast is now live and contains rambling and stuff. I didn't mean you when I was moaning about people on the internet by the way, just everybody else.
