Radio ThaSauce – Post MAGFest Review

What’s up everyone?  I just got back from MAGFest, which is still going on, and I must say, it was absolutely EPIC as always, but even more so this year!

Jon St. John, the voice of Duke Nukem and Big the Cat, as well as Sid Meier, the father of modern gaming, were in attendance at MAGFest this year, and they were most definitely welcomed with open arms.  Not only in attendance, but also participating in not only a panel but a game (Powerpoint Jeopardy) was Jon St. JohnSid Meier, accomplished musician as well, joined in on the fun in two separate instances of jamming in the one and only Jamspace at MAGFest.  Many had the opportunity to sing with Sid Meier to the tune of Rocket Man, as well as hear a rendition of a popular Eagles song called Hotel Civilization.  Epic times to be had!

The list of great things that happened this year also grew to include 12 vg inspired bands including The Megas, Armcannon, This Place is Haunted, Rare Candy, Temp Sound Solutions and more to rock out in the Concert Hall.

MAGFest also had it share of DJs bringing in the start of the New Year with style and flair, including q-pa, Renard and more!

For those of you who are fans of both ThaSauce and OverClocked ReMix, both sites once again had great panels at MAGFest this year! There are new changes coming to OCR, including a new blogging feature, ratings, and much more! ThaSauce has also had a stellar year having had a complete redesign released as well as an improved Remix: ThaSauce going live!

For those of you with a flair for cooking, the first ever MAGFest Iron Chef competition was, for lack of a better word, HOT! Three teams competed for the title of Iron Chef, but only one came out on top; TEAM REMIX!  Comprised of injury (starla of OCReMix and ThaSauce), Ramaniscence (of ThaSauce) and Vilecat (of OCReMix), they came and conquered the competition with style!  This author looks forward to their next culinary masterpiece!

Dwelling of Duels held its annual listening party Saturday night, all night. Results are forthcoming, and will be posted on http://dod.vgmix.com. It was a great competition and they had many tracks to listen to and take in.

OverClocked After Dark, the newest podcast addition to the OverClocked ReMix family (of podcasts), has taken the internet by storm! Featured at the OCReMix panel via a new video as well as its hosts, Brushfire, Level 99 and Epicenter, OCAD has embarked on a journey to make you laugh, possibly cry, and help you find a new found love for monster trucks!
