I am coming home.

The DoFuss Show – The Penultimate

We are back for the almost-last DoFuss Show. December will see the last DoFuss Show with my return from Japan to the UK. As I won’t be in the ‘land of the rising sun’ any more, the opening lyrics claim that I am ‘the number one gaijin, the man in Japan who can’ will become hopelessly inaccurate so (as we can’t be bothered to rewrite the theme tune) we decided to cancel the show.

The DoFuss Show – Some thoughts on E3 and Pierce Brosnan.

Life may be busy but that hasn’t stopped us here at DoFuss, so here for your entertainment is the latest show. If you have been counting (and I don’t know why you would have been) you may have noticed this is the thirtieth show since we rebooted last year, which makes it as old as us, kind of. Continue reading The DoFuss Show – Some thoughts on E3 and Pierce Brosnan.

Maybe it could work, but I think there is still some work to do.

The DoFuss Show – Productively Doing Nothing.

Gaming news and talk of what we have been playing sits as ever at the front of the show, but this time the feature topping our metaphorical cake is whether playing online games could make us better people. This is an idea put forward by Jane McGonigal, a designer at the Institute for the Future, during her talk at TED in February. While it may seem like a bizarre idea, much of what she said got me thinking that there maybe something to it, as did looking at her online games that have been designed to harness the power of the game playing public for good.

Scary stuff.

The DoFuss Show – Trying To Bridge Cultural Divides.

This show’s unintentional theme is cultural divides. With me returning to the UK later this year Darren decided to prepare me for re-entry with terrifying snippets from the British tabloid ‘The Sun’. While this is an apt reintroduction to the state of my home nation, I cannot help but feel there is a veiled message from Darren to stay in the land of sushi and fun that is Japan.

The DoFuss Show – “I Don’t Let Friends Have a Bite of My Sandwich”.

We did it, two shows in one month. Darren and I are back in the saddle and ready to take you on an hour of gaming and sandwich exploration. Kicking it off with heaven and hell, we visit the KFC … Continue reading The DoFuss Show – “I Don’t Let Friends Have a Bite of My Sandwich”.

The DoFuss Show – Back to Basics.

Recently the show has been in a state of flux. Regulars will no doubt have noticed, and any newer listeners who have heard more than two episodes will probably have been confused, by the total shifts in tone between shows. So to try and inject some stability to proceedings Darren and I have made a commitment to get back to the usual fortnightly format with just the two of us. Our theory is if we can’t provide quality we should at least aim for consistency. With such a long break since Darren’s last outing we spend a little time getting … Continue reading The DoFuss Show – Back to Basics.
