Fabulacity. 

A podcast that revolves around games, gaming and the news behind it all. 

I have seen several episodes so far, and the more I watch them, the better the podcast, and in turn the 4 pillars, get. So as my tribute to this growing podcast, I wish to review it for them, and for you.

Firstly, lets go over the podcast pillars.  We have four gentlemen, all four who have one love in common: gaming. We have xTomass, who "got this shit happen", as he claims. Goramoth, also known as the head of Dead Air Gaming, is the streamer, and makes sure they go live without problems (we do not add the fire alarm incidents as a problem). Some Kind of Wizard (whom as of now we will shorten to SKOW)is the one that "cocked everything up" as he claims for himself. He is the most notable of the group, if not for the enormous large wizard hat he has that refuses to stay balanced on his head. And lastly, we have Ronith, a wintered gamer though he claims being "useless" himself.

Now all of you will be familiar with the TGS Podcast (hosted by TotalBiscuit, Jesse Cox and Dodger) and their attempt at following a fixed path of topics (which sometimes strays horribly). Fabulacity has a fixed program as well, and not a bad one at that. If anything, I prefer Fabulacity's program over the one that TGS currently holds. Why? Because of the interactivity with it's audience.  Most of these two programs are the same, save for the last part.

Fabulacity starts out with a small introduction, then goes over the games they have been playing. Games like Dota 2, Guild Wars 2, Dark Souls, Hero Academy and Skyrim have been played, and obviously many more.  Next, the pillars go over their own topics that consist of them asking questions between themselves or placing a statement and opening a discussion. The most heated one this week was Mojang's announced addition of the Bossmob 'Wither'. For details, I recommend you go to Mojang's official site/blog.  Up next, we have the news. This  part consists of an announcement in the gaming world that cannot be ignored, such as 'Heart of the Swarm' beta going live, Steam's Greenlight kicking off and game sales dropping in august, and of course more.

The final part is where Fabulacity differs from TGS. Where TGS asks questions between themselves, Fabulacity lets its audience do the asking. This is what I particularly like about this podcast, and prefer over TGS. Strong questions can be asked and are not buried in an instant. Questions vary from miscellaneous things (What is the dream set up for a zombie invasion) to serious issues our hosts did not cover (thoughts about the Wikipad and hopes for Dishonored). 

The best part about these four gentlemen? The after-show. The recording may have ceased, but at that point these gentlemen make use of the streaming and team up in an MMO, such as Dungeons & Dragons: Online, making room for all manners of silliness. 

All in all, this is a podcast you should have viewed at least once, to decide for yourself if you love or hate it. Have I caught your interest with this review? Then don't wait! Catch their podcast live on www.twitch.tv/fabulacity every friday at 7.30 BST and experience these fabulous gentlemen for yourselves! If you want your question asked, you can direct them through twitter to either Goramoth, SKOW or xTomass himself. Ronith, unfortunately, does not exist on the internet.

To conclude my review, I wish to say only this:  Even though they are not the top notch gaming podcast, they certainly have a bright future ahead of them if they continue to improve and grow. I certainly wish them all the best!
