A Chip-less podcast this week, but Todd and Warren are in the same room at the same time. Will wonders never cease? Probably not. They covered the shrinking length of games, the abysmal Blackberry Playbook launch, Portal 2, Final Cut, an Apple television, and a surfeit of other exciting game related news. Excitement! Cats! Echoes!
Apple moves to the cloud (maybe), the iPhone 5 is delayed until all 2011 (maybe), Final Cut coming to NAB (maybe) and this episode goes out a week late (definitely.) Also, a great ad from Apple.
Technical difficulties nearly felled the podcast this week, but your favourite Mac gaming nerds soldiered on, discussing the new iPad, the potential of Airplay to usurp the console space, why the Sony NGP is “dead on arrival,” and why the iPad might be the best gaming system ever. At least according to one developer at GDC.
After a long absence due to work, moving, and other dull real-life nonsense, Fruitygamer is back in the saddle, now with added Chip from The Two Minute Time Lord. With a third person throwing around opinions and speculating on Apple mysteries the podcast is longer and better and will likely be coming out a whole lot more regularly. We’ve also decided to stick with audio only, as video is (at this point) too much work for too little payoff.
note: I refer to Dead Island as “Undead Island” throughout the podcast. I am dumb.
topics of discussion in this episode:
-New Macbook Pros!
-iPad 2!
-OS X Lion!
-Minecraft for iOS!
Dead (not Undead) Island’s awesome trailer!

Our first episode shot on my new iPhone 4 wherein Todd and Warren discuss media creation, replacing your Xbox 360 with Boot Camp, the Verizon iPhone, and much much more!
note: the sound on this episode could be better, but hey, it was shot on an iPhone 4. 
On a very special FruityGamer, Todd and Warren examine the best and worst of iPhone, iPad and Mac gaming in 2010 and hold forth on the future of Apple gaming come 2011. Come back in 2012 and tell us how wrong we were, but in the meantime, listen to our trenchant observations and savvy insights.
After a week’s delay, the boys are back to cover Infinity Blade, the iPad 2, Google vs. Apple, the future of publishing, and Angry Birds. Also, achievement whoring.
Note: no video this week, China’s bandwidth is somewhat lacking. Solutions are being looked into by top men.
Aralon on the iPhone, Lego Harry Potter, developers, iOS 4.2, GTA, and a lengthy Scott Pilgrim discussion. It’s a grab bag of Fruitygaming, Fruitygamers!
Games are the main thing being downloaded on the iPad, but you won’t be able to grab iDOS and play old DOS classics anymore on your iPad. Movie games, Batman, Trainyard and Todd rides Bane (in his mind). And for the second week in a row, video!
