PRESS RELEASE: The ESCape Along With Other GPN DJ’s/Pod Hosts Create Gamer Network Radio

December 18th, 2008 | Category: Site Update

Cleveland, OH—December 17, 2008— The ESCape Announced tonight on their record breaking landmark 50th show that along with other GPN DJ’s/Pod Hosts have come together to form a brand new gaming network – Gamer Network Radio. Located at www.gamernetworkradio.com and www.mygnetradio.com, G-NET Radio will be a central place where the gamer can go and discuss their favorite games, while enjoying their favorite song, preferred DJ, or available podcast. The user will also be able to interact with the site and discuss gaming in our integrated chat room, forums, or create their very own web blogs. New additional ways to interact with the site will be announced in time to come.

G-NET Radio has also partnered with new comic book publisher Mask and Cape Comics (http://www.maskandcape.com) in an advertising deal, in which G-Net Radio will be featured in the upcoming editions of their comic book as well as developing an upcoming podcast airing weekly on G-Net Radio for the comic. Mask and Cape Comics representative Mike Matta stated “It will be a pleasure working with G-Net Radio, with both sides prospering.”

G-NET Radio will launch out of beta on January 1, 2009 with an official launch party soon to follow. All of the other current GPN shows, such as Orderly Chaos, Azerothian Gamerz, The Reel Review, The Grenade, The Friday Night Rock Block, and others will follow to the new re-branded network. G-Net Radio Director of Music, Harmack, states an upgrade to the current music bot is being implemented and the user will be able to request songs from the website as well as the chat room, even when there is no live DJ.

This is a huge step in the evolving process of The ESCape, and a project that has been in development for several months. We would like to welcome all of our fans to our brand new home, G-NET Radio, coming January 1, 2009.

December 06th, 2008 | Category: Exclusive Content

If you missed this past Fridays edition of the Friday Night Rock Block, The Extreme Show called in for an appearance on their latest podcast. We presented our points of view, and in our opinion we believe it went well, although some of the live fans disagreed and voiced their opinions in the chat, and in the forums. Listen and tell us what you think.

Episode 48 – Diagnosis: Harmack

December 03rd, 2008 | Category: Episode Update, Site Update

AL, Mike and special guest Eric (from TMR) back with ya! We are down to 3 more live, explosive shows for the year. Here is what to expect on this episode:

- The “Save Harmack Campaign” continues tonight! It was announced on the Friday Night Rock Block that Harmack may have a “terminal illness”. As announced on the Orderly Chaos Show Sunday night, tonight Dr. Jak will give us his full diagnosis on Harmack’s strange illness. Plus it seems that Buck would like to send his “Get Well” wishes to Harmack, so will Buck return live to the show?
- In the midst of the impending tragedy, we are going to war. This week The ESCape Review Panel will review Gears of War 2 for the XBOX 360 and Call of Duty: World at War, available now for PS3, 360, PC and Wii.
- Need to shop for your favorite gamer this holiday season? This week we will share our very own Holiday Gift Guide for you and the special gamer in your life. It’s part one of a two part series, which will conclude next episode.
- With Black Friday recently passing, we all know the results stem a sure fire AOTW.
- Speaking of Black Friday, seems that online retail chains are starting a new phenomenon known as “Cyber Monday”. Should this be taken as a legitimate day, or perhaps another bogus holiday?
