We’re back with some new content! Expect more youtube uploads in the near future, but today we’ve got a pair of Doom playthroughs, fresh from the /newstuff archive! Download links: Botero’s Mansion The Genocide Center

Ready or not, Quakecon 2012 is right around the corner. Whether you’re going to be lanning it up in the BYOC, or smashing faces in the tournaments, you’d better be flexing your QuakeLive muscles. In this spirit, we are proud to announce the eFRAGulation cup. Sure, we’re cramming it into the last minute, but if [...]
How do I spell this guy’s name again? One L? Two Ls? I don’t think he even knows. What I *do* know, however, is that this guy knows how to run one kickass cup. CTF, Duel, and TDM wrapped up on one sexy package, with finals culminating in one 8-hour broadcast marathon! Whatever your flavor [...]
The ever-evolving acid trip of a shooter is about to gather itself up for a rather celebratory event: the next incremental patch towards the fabled 1.0! The big 0.7 is an arbitrary number that’s going to make a good amount of us go weak at the knees, and here’s why: New Menu! (oooh, it’s all [...]
Holy crap! Ever since starting back up with King of the Hill, the response from the community has been nothing short of staggering, giving us some great matches throughout the entire night. Check out the first part above, with the other videos available HERE!
Last week’s King of the Hill came in a nice Fun-Size package! With DreamHack gearing up, attention was justifiably diverted to the always-epic event. Check out the VOD for a good casual match!
Blood is good. Fresh blood is better. And what better way to test the stickiness of fresh blood than to put it up against one of the most accomplished Quake II duelers of all time? That’s exactly what we get at the grand finale of the 10th season of the prestigious EDL. Purri and David [...]
Summer is on us again, and nothing gets me more excited than to see the plethora of Quake Live cups, leagues, and pickups running this season. We’re happy to re-introduce our little event into the pot, with open signups every week! This week, we experimented with switching to PQL for the Premium half, to mixed [...]
For the past couple days, I’ve had a weird itch in the back of my head. I knew that, somewhere out there, some groovy dudes were out there devising some truely bad-ass Doom 3 maps. I could feel it in the air: new Doom 3 content was on the way. I could just feel it. [...]
Heya all, Jehar here. I’m loving the hell out of the Team Duel League over on warsow.na. Almost makes me wonder why such an awesome group can’t pay their hosting bills. Maybe if we stepped up and bought more tshirts, we would have more tshirts? Right? Ahem. Enjoy the vods, and if you’re out there [...]
Had quite a few players show up this week, and the amount of buzz that we’re generating now is getting all of my Quake-juices flowing. Would love to see some more North American… OH WAIT! A quick peek inside will show Jehar urging you to participate in the upcoming 2v2 tournament, which at the time [...]
What a treat! Xanthus over at the warsow.na community has whipped up a rather novel tournament structure – Team Duel! As odd as it sounds, it’s made for some amazing games, and more importantly training for a lot of newer players. Come check it out every Saturday night right here on Tastyspleen.tv!
The ever-awesome Chibers has polished up a rather lengthy post from the Quakelive forums into an insightful article – one that speaks to me as a member of the Quake community. Enjoy! I haven’t played the Quake series for very long, but I’ve played enough now to know that I’m part of the one of [...]
Though you wouldn’t be able to tell from the (lack of) updates here, our weekly events are picking up some real momentum here, especially on the Quake II side of things. Every week we see more and more players get into the game, and more community involvement all around. Personally, I’m rather stunned by the [...]
We’re off to a blazing start, check out the screen/podcast as we frolic through the fields that are the QExpo booths!
Do you ever wonder what happens in the darkest recesses of the Quake universe? Are you haunted by the notion that somewhere out there, huddled in the shadows, someone is making a mod or a map or a model that you will never ever see? Fear no more, QExpo is here. Once in a blue [...]
Well, here it is. A bit of a rebuttal to Denby’s post on RockPaperShotgun, but mostly a deeply felt need to actually look at some of the games that we use as scapegoats for things like linearity, brownness, etc. Do the games actually match with the impressions people get when they are brought up? Do [...]
Another milestone! This weekend marked our 30th Warsow KOTH! Huge thanks to our players and viewers for making this weekly event such a huge success! Watch the action after the break!
This week we tuned in to some great games in the return of the FTWGL Urban Terror league! iCu* faced off against bra’ and it was a real treat to see!
WSW KOTH 29! Fun all around as usual in our long-running weekly duel event! Thanks as always to the players and viewers!
Earlier today we had a swell time with the Global Gamers 4th Anniverary Party! It was fun and prizes and tourneys and giggles all around! Thanks to GlobalGamers for running such a great network all these years!
Thanks to all who participated in this weekend’s Warsow KOTH! Nearing it’s 30th edition, let’s keep it going strong! Sorry no VOD’s.

Tonight brought fun to everyone yet again with the 37th (approximate) edition of Warsow KOTH! Thanks to Ustream we have a proper full event replay of tonight’s festivities! Be sure to check it out after the break! Thanks always to everyone who participated and to our viewers as well.
Some fun matchups tonight including an awesome double overtime game between Dodson and [BTF]Adam! Unfortunately, shortly after that network issues started crumbling down the internets and tonight’s festivities had to be cut short. But be sure to tune in tomarrow evening for Warsow KOTH! Also, if anyone has a more accurate week number then 37, [...]
Here at Tastyspleen.tv, we like game design. Thus, we like Quake. We like Quake. Thus, we like game design. Some of us like talking about it too. A lot. Platforms & Pitfalls is a podcast with an academic focus on game design and theory, hosted by a rotating panel consisting of members of one of [...]
Okay okay, I’ll have to admit here that this isn’t exactly *new*, per se. We’ve been sporatically running ReadyUpRadio episodes for the past few months, but we just really, really wanted to remind you. ReadyUpRadio is awesome. Take the most opinionated people in Quake (which is no small task) and give em mics. These guys [...]
The first of many reviews to come from Tastyspleen.tv! I realized a little late in the game that the map is a re-release from 04, but hey. A review is a review. Please leave comments as to the general review structure, as we want to do more of these, in bulk!
Wow. Just... wow. This event is layered like a cake after a trip to Haiti. First off, this event kicks off the launch of Anima Gaming, who bring a lot of excitement and promise to the North American Quake III communities. Secondly, the sheer calibre of players here are staggaring. Rapha is the star favorite, but Zero4, who due to work had to miss the IEM finals in New York, brings many surprises to the table.
A long multinational season comes down to this very day - one of the best team shooters around gets worked out by some of the best teams to be had. Enjoy the show, and don't wear anything that'll stain!
