E3 has come and gone and we’ve got the run down of what information dropped at the huge event. This episode of MiniGUP, Astharis sits down with Colin and Darryl and has them talk about their experience at this year’s conference. Hear what the guys have to say about each press event from the big three (Microsoft, Sony, and Nintendo) and then they start talking about specific releases and news pieces from the show. Wii U, PlayStation Vita, Uncharted 3, and Assassin’s Creed are but a small sampling of everything that the group talks about. Listen in to hear how E3 panned out in 2011!

This marks the last FFU episode before the gang travels off to the land of E3! Join in with Darryl, Colin, and Lauren as they sit down to talk all things Final Fantasy. They start off with a little news about Type-0 and discuss whether or not SE will release it in the west. They then move into the big burning question which was "Should the new FF game be just on Project Cafe?" The group moves into a discussion about what FF material will be seen at E3 which morphs into a discussion about what SE should be doing with the FF franchise. And what FFU show would it be without your questions? After flaming one another, they round things out with a great piece of music. If you need your FF fix, you know what to do: download, listen, and enjoy!

E3 is nearly upon us and MiniGUP is here to talk about what’s to come. Join in with Astharis, Colin, Darryl, and Lauren as they launch into their pre-E3 debate on what they’re looking forward to, what they expect to see, and what they hope to experience. After that, they jump into a discussion about parents buying Mature rated games for their underage children; is it bad parenting or a sign of maturity in the youth of today? After that, the gang gives their thoughts and opinions on what they feel about the new installment into the Assassin’s Creed franchise: Revelations. Is this a cheap knock-off or will it truly be a good game? If you want to know the answers to all these questions, you know what to do: download and join us once again!

OMG...we actually have news this week for Kingdom Hearts! Is the earth in its final days? Who’s to say, but despite the impending apocalypse, Lauren, Churro, and Darryl sit down with a new face...er, voice...on the show, Branden. They talk about how you can turn you’re phone into a keyblade, read responses from you on what you thought of Re: Coded, and then they go into your questions. Was the voice acting any good? What boss was they hardest to beat? Do you think KH will release all of its games on PSN for the 10th anniversary? And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. They round things out with a fantastic piece of music. Come enjoy this episode of KHU with the first piece of news in months…we certainly did!

The very face of MiniGUP has changed, and it now generates nothing but pure, undiluted awesome. Join in with the crew in this 22nd episode of MiniGUP as we celebrate Astharis taking the reins as host with her trusty number 2, Colin. Darryl and Brian troll the episode as well! The group spends some time recapping the previous show and reading some of your comments and then they launch into two different discussions. First deals with Sony and the “problems” they've had over the last couple of weeks. After that, the MiniGUP posse goes into a discussion about the summer drought and whether or not there is one this year. It all breaks down as they confess to their individual piles of shame. The new era of MiniGUP is here and it is not to be missed!

The news drought continues on as Nomura is still hibernating in his cave, so the gang turns to questions. Join in with Lauren as she fearlessly leads Darryl, Churro, and Melissa through a bunch of listener questions. Will we hear info about KH at E3 this year, should the story get darker or stay light hearted, is Re:Coded a waste of space, do you want more Final Fantasy character involvement in KH3, and much more. It’ll take more than a news drought to keep us down, even if the apocalypse gets here before KH3 is announced (bah Nomura!)! Make sure you don’t miss the new Burning Question for next episode so that we can read your response!

The Final Fantasy news drought has been broken for this episode. Want FF5? Well, unless you live in Europe, you can’t have it, or so we hear from Darryl, Colin, and Lauren in this 51st episode. After some news, they jump into a lot of questions. Here’s are a few questions to look forward to: should numbered FF titles be on handhelds/MMO, will there be a FF7 remake on the NGP, and what would FFU do if Square-Enix shuts down or if the old creative team makes a new company better than SE? Also, this episode brings a new type of question called the Burning Question. Lot’s of fun and shenanigans ensue.
