We’re dropping our banner at the following link. It took a lot less convincing than I’d expected to get Jeremy and Scott on board with Diablo 3. I hadn’t planned to cajole or persuade at all, and I only suggested they play the beta weekend so they could comment on an experience that every other human in [...]
Season 6, Episode 5 (2012-04-21 12:43:39)
Our feelings have been outsourced at the following link. The Mass Effect controversy endures, but it looks like there might be enough time before the new endings are released for hurt feelings to mend, or for sharp memories to fade. There’s no forgetting the embarrassing furor, and there’s likely nothing BioWare can do to mend [...]
Season 6, Episode 4 (2012-04-04 16:16:00)
The entire series is ruined at the following link. I really wanted to engage the topic of Mass Effect on our own terms. I imagined we’d compare choices and consequences and how they sometimes failed to materialize, then move on to highlights and lowlights of narrative and character development, losses and gains of affection, plot [...]
Season 6, Episode 3 (2012-03-16 11:20:30)
We’ve got one foot on the bandwagon at the following link. It’s unfortunate we weren’t able to finish Mass Effect 3 by the time of this recording. We’re always anxious to be a part of the full conversation, sure, but our worry is that the internet is being a real sonofabitch about this game, and [...]
Season 6, Episode 2 (2012-03-08 16:44:59)
We’re all a bunch of sluts at the following link. This second episode is actually the first to be handed back to Kevin for fine-tuning and post-production. It’s a thing he was pretty insistent about doing, and though I can’t see why, I’m awfully glad for his help. So, on his behalf, the show is [...]
Season 6, Episode 1 (2012-03-04 13:23:19)
A very fresh show that has not been sitting around is available at the following link. When you consider the full five-year run of our show, the lateness of this particular episode doesn’t seem quite so bad. Or am I wrong? We took some time here to examine our recording habits over the last several [...]
The Something Frog Episode (2012-02-13 16:13:46)
This was the last episode under the old title format, and I honestly can’t say what it’s really meant to be named. It had something to do with seven frogs, or maybe sudden frogs – whatever those might be – but I don’t remember, and I couldn’t quite make out what Scott was saying in [...]
The Sergeant Lipton Episode (2012-02-13 15:57:33)
This episode has been thoroughly fossilized since its disappearance late last year, but it’s yours if you want it. It’s short, but we spent most of our time heckling the VGAs and that part of the recording went sour quick, so it was done away with at once. At this point, we’re only acknowledging this [...]
The Father Figure Episode (2012-01-06 17:28:27)
We’re blowing the dust off this episode at the following link. Yes, this is a painfully old episode. There’s nothing that could be confused for a modern or contemporary topic inside. It’s been so long, in fact, that you’re likely to have forgotten many of the classics we discuss; games such as Skyrim, Uncharted, and [...]
The Belt Buckle Episode (2011-11-20 14:42:09)
We’re performing a critical function at the following link. This episode is exceptionally long, and we’re going to go ahead and assume you’re alright with that. It’s ridiculous how many quality games are available to play at the moment, and now is our time to enjoy this embarrassment of riches; to play as much of [...]
