Wow, we are starting to get old. We might only look like we have done maybe 25 shows. But for those of you that listen to us know that we do the .0’s AND .5’s, so we have quite a bit of shows under our belt. And since its show 25.0 that means its time for MrCarpalTunnel and The Other Guy to give you another awesome show. Thats right I said TOG, he is back to XBL Radio after missing show 24.0. But for good reason… he had his first baby. So congrats again TOG and I hope you’re getting some sleep now.

Its about time! We have been asked about it since we have started up the new and improved site, and now we finally have it for you. There it is! Its the orange icon right under this sentence. Now you can get all the XBL Radio you desire off the air and on your RSS Reader.

The backwards compatibility list grew a lot today thanks to Microsoft. And not only were older games put on there, but newer and UNRELEASED games as well, like Lego Starwars 2. So for all of you that thought MS was done working on this, here ya go. And for some more good news, they are continuing to work on this. Props to MS for continuing the BackCompat project.

Thanks to Gamerscore Blog for the heads up, click their link for the full story. And no Rusty! Midtown Madness 3 did not make the list this time! So keep playing GeoWars.

Alright its time for round 2. Round 2 will take place at 7pm pst on Wednesday August 30. Here are the rules, I don’t care who starts up the game as long as it gets started, but you must have standard uno, standard deck, NO CUSTOM RULES and ALL private seats. Now once the game is started, you will continue to play till someone has 3, yes 3 wins. If it is the computer, keep going till a human player has 3 wins. Now it is up to the winner to email who one, if I get no emails about that match, I will consider it a no show on everyones part. Now this is all an honesty tournament here. I can’t sit in on every match and watch so its up to you guys to police each other. Now the 2nd round will start this Wednesday at 7pst UNLESS all parties in that match agree on a different time, but I MUST have all results by Friday morning and then we will continue the finals where someone will be declared the UNO Champion and I will award them with some free MS Points. If you have any more questions feel free to email me at Steve@xblradio.com

Now for the bracket (there were some empty spot so I reinserted the xbl radio staff)

Match 1: ssab, goverland, the other guy 1, NXJ NightHawk
Match 2: Steve519, MysteryMVP, Maniac Mic
Match 3: TJ Iverson, Favid 56, Rusty Ranchero
Match 4: Rayjay2, MrCarpaltunnel, Tommyboy 99

That’s right! I didn’t make it to PAX on Sunday-I really wanted to but I just couldn’t go, and I have a good reason. I was in a State Tournament for Darts. Yes I said darts! And because I was having to miss the final day of PAX I felt that I had to do pretty good to make up for that. So how did I do, you ask?

Yep, I took First Place with my dart partner Harley Davidson (real name). We both received one of these, split a payout of $780 and we won a big trophy for the bar that sponsored us-Cloud 9 out of Kent, WA. So sorry I missed the last day of PAX but again it was for good reason.

Ok, well I saw Trixie playing Zuma on the Xbox 360 and I had to snag this one up, so if you wanna see this and more, go ahead and follow my “PIX from PAX” link…
