As for the contest, I don't even have a PS3, but here's hoping I win Resistance: Fall of Man (thanks Cheapy and daphatty for the prizes)!

I'd love to get Killzone Liberation for my new PSP.

You should have read the Kotaku version of the "noise" article. It explains it a little better:

http://kotaku.com/gaming/wii/and-according-to-some-dude-the-noisiest-console-is-228652.php

It's all about averages. The 360 is noisy when the disc is spinning, but on average, it's not as noisy as the Wii.

Great show though. The new mic is nice.

So far so good; the show is a lot more upbeat this week. Nice to see the chemistry back to form, Cheapy/Wombat. :) And there is a definite improvement with the new mic, though it is a little bass-y, like Wombat said.

Also, I would certainly approve of receiving a free copy of Resistance: Fall of Man. :) (And I actually want to play it! ..at least, eventually!)

Very nice of Daphatty for coming up with prizes for the CAGs.

Warhawk on the original PSX was a great game. Lots of crap blowing up and an open environment.
The ship itself was a cross between a jet and a helicopter, But without helicopter blades. Kinda like a harrier, in that it was able to hover and do 180 turns. It was a VTOL craft: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VTOL

The levels were varied, and the amount of crap on screen was insane. One of the best levels was the one with all the aircraft carriers launching enemies at you. I was very disappointed to hear that development was stalling for the PS3 version.

Maeking mine Marvel! also Resistance: Fall of Man

JohnnyDrama
01-17-2007, 10:25 AM
An awesome show this week, probably the best one in the last few weeks. Not sure about Cheapy's 360 game idea though, probably something that will only work in Japan, not sure about the states.

01-17-2007, 01:23 PM
Still listen every week and still enjoy the show but I have a complaint. There are a lot of loyal listeners and more and more lately I feel that you are answering the same question over and over again from the CAG Bag. I would rather have a shorter podcast than listen to how you first watched RoboCop for the 3rd time or how the match making in Gears is worse than Halo for the 6th time.

PyroGamer
01-17-2007, 01:26 PM
Much better show this week.

Still not as great as you guys have been at your prime, but you've regained my confidence.

Oh, and I'm not just saying that because I want to win a copy of Resistance : Fall of Man.

Great show.

Warhawk was a boss in Twisted Metal: Black. It's sort of a futuristic helicopter/plane combination.

felixlighter

I have to go against Mr Unoriginal's post and I say I'm for a longer CAGcast. I listen to the show at work each week. When I'm listening, time flies; no matter what Cheapy and Wombat are talking about. I don't listen to get the latest gaming news or deals, if thats all you're listening for, it's a lot faster just going to a few gaming sites and the CAG forums. I listen for the funny discussions and Cheapy and Wombat's take on gaming and other topics. If they streamlined the show and only talked about the best gaming deals and latest gaming headlines I would quickly lose interest. I could get all that information elsewhere; I want to know about life in Japan, Cheapy's obsession with Robocop, Wombat's constant struggle to stay employed and his ongoing quest to mouch free games. Whose with me?

I propose an 8 hour CAGcast posted 5 days a week Mon-Fri. My work week would be over in a flash.

PS. Warhawk was an original PlayStation title(my first Playstation game), that came out about the same time as Twisted Metal. Warhawk was not a helicopter in that game, it was a ship that could lift off the ground vertically and hover like a helicopter but it had no helicopter blades. It fired these badass swarm missiles and there was some hilarious FMV sequences. I was in love with that game when I first bought my Playstation. A less futuristic version of Warhawk made a cameo in Twisted Metal Black as a boss.

P.P.S If a gamer pic for your alma mater exists you are morally obligated to use it.

Thanks for the nice mental image at the end of the show wombat. Keep up the good work guys I look forward to show #60.

Have you heard a PS3 when it's running in an enclosed space, like those kiosks they have for them? My God, it's like it's dying and it wants everyone to know it.

Oh yeah. Resistance.

I couldn't tell the difference with the new mic at all... oh well

I agree with the others, longer is better, I've never understood why you guys, Wombat especially, want to cut it off so soon. I listen to it at work, too, and the more time I spend listening to the CAGCast and the less I spend thinking about how bored I am, the better. I've been a listener since episode #1, and the longer ones are definitely the best.

That said, I would be even happier with a a copy of SOCOM for the PSP...

CheapyD
01-17-2007, 07:47 PM
We usually try to keep the show between 60-90 minutes, depending on the quantity and quality of our topics.

I definitely don't want to "force" a show to be longer just for sake of hitting the 90 minute mark.

thorbahn3
01-17-2007, 07:52 PM
Wombat was pretty good this week. He has successfully killed all his shitty running jokes. Good job. As for the lack of Wii games, I think you guys must have a horrible memory. Remember the DS line up between launch and June? How about the 360's? If you look, you'll see they share many of the same release line up troubles.

Resistance: Fall of Man, Socom, Killzone

I also prefer longer episodes. It's not like we don't have a week to listen. Like previous posters have said, I don't listen for news that I can get from the web. I listen for banter, funny opinions, and the perspective of a man in Japan. Would you tell Artie to stop talking about heroin because you "already heard that one?" May I also say that much like Salt N' Pepa, your "mic sounds nice."

Oh yeah, and Killzone: Liberation would make me use my PSP a little more often.

Damn I was hoping the title was going to mean Steven Seagal action.

Edit: As far as the PC response, I think a lot of it is that there have not been a lot of great games to come out over the past few years. This year is stacked through and through and probably by and large has the best lineup out of any gaming platform (though most still fit into the main genre's) and should bring about a somewhat of a revival. Also a lot of people are now getting LCD televisions which usually come with VGA or DVI hookups so that should help bring about the move to the living room and help people enjoy PC games on their big televisions.

This episode definitely had a couple LOL moments which were lacking from the last few CAGcasts. Wombat seemed more into this episode then he had been in awhile, so the witty banter was in full force. The stick your dick in it tagline was classic. I still can't tell whether you're serious or not Cheapy, but I do think Microsoft should consider doing a Japanese dating sim game. In any case, great show. More people should start listening and get hooked. Resistance is futile.

Nice, shorter, compact show guys--it seemed to have more energy than usual.

I shudder to think what will happen when you burp into that new microphone Cheapy.

Oh, and Resistance would be a nice addition to my (nonexistent) PS3 library.

The new microphone did sound alot deeper...I'm glad to see the show is progressing nicely.

And Resistance? That'd be a nice add.

Or Killzone.

Anything really.

I being of the anti-Wombat mooching movement formerly now stand firmly FOR the Mooching Wombat. In my newly found wisdom I found myself missing his tales of getting the evasive free gaming and now feel that Wombat without the mooch is no Wombat at all. Keep those mooching tales coming!

....Just one more thing Wombat, I kindly ask that you don't update us on Mrs Wombat's attire (or lack thereof) as such mental imagery is not required knowledge by your faithful listeners :)

Socom!

Woah woah! Slow down their CheapyD and Wombat. Whats with the excessive PS3 hating? Yea, it doesn't have to many games out right now. But atleast its offering more then what the Wii has (The Wii has. What? Zelda? Oh its on the Gamecube.).

No Friendslist/chat during games? Yea, the Wii doesn't have that either.

Are you saying that you wish Sony went Nintendo's Route? By offering a 250$ Cheaper PS3 without notable improved graphics, with the same notable downs of the PS3 interface with even more lack of content? Friend Codes? No HDTV support? A high cost for Downloadable content?

Give them some time. They have patched alot, and who knows, they might put in something compareable to 360's Live usage.

It's Definetally not the fall of PS3 just because you can FIND the console in stores.

You can't find the Wii? Well maybe its because its extremely cheap! And also Nintendo has NOT released ANY new Wii consoles. And you are speaking Highly of them because of that?

Listening to CAGcast is the only thing I've been using my PSP for lately.
Some Killzone: Liberation would be great to remind me it's a handheld gaming platform.

Twisted Metal II is one of my all-time favorite games. Brings back the memory of a hazy room and the Miller lite 30 pack. TM: Black was great as well and I still have no clue why they don't pump more of them out...

Resistance: Fall of Man

Enjoyed the show. I have all 3 consoles and the 360 is the loudest by far. However, my PS3 needs a game so I could really use Resistance: Fall of Man.

I really enjoy the CAGCast, it helps pass an hour a week of my 40 hour week job. Now if you could just crank out 39 more CAGCasts a week, I could tolerate my job.

SOCOM Fireteam Bravo 2 should be a good game....

01-18-2007, 10:52 PM

Oh, and Killzone or Socom for me....can I pick two?

If not put me down for Socom

Thanks Daphaty for supporting Cheapy's contest with some PS3 games. Years ago (PS and SNES era) I used to visit Akihabara often. It was great then, I wonder what it's like now. I'm hoping for...

Resistance fall of man.

I have a PS3 but no games or blu-ray movies, ... the Motorstorm demo is getting old.

Resistance: Fall of Man can help my PS3 blues.

Is that a Wii game:)

JK

I think you guys are crazy when you say there is nothing coming out for the Wii during the next few months. SSX Blur is going to be great. Sonic has gotten nothing but positive previews. On an average MP8 should be fun with friends along with Wii Play.

Good show...the questions asked by the listeners made me laugh the most especially the question regarding the gang bangs in Japan.

I live in Japan myself and I've been invited to a few Gang bangs in Japan...but I'm a happily married man plus I don't wish to have my balls cut off by my wife. So if any of you guys are in Tokyo you might wanna check out this action...

I could definitely tell the difference in the audio quality with that new mic Cheapy, very nice. I don't know why, but this was one of my favorite CAGcasts. All around entertianing show. Oh yeah, should I be so lucky, I'd like Resistance.

Wolfpup
01-19-2007, 06:20 PM
I wouldn't mind any of them!

Resistance, Killzone: Liberation, and Socom. I guess Socom the least though (though that's hard to say when you haven't actually played any of them ;)

resistance fall of man would be nice, on topic, how about wombat getting a new mic too.

01-19-2007, 07:58 PM
Cheapy, you new mic sounds GREAT. I was a little worried for the past few episodes in November, you were sounding liek a fish in the sea. Also, I agree that PW is the best bathroom game ever. I play until my legs are numb.

For the contest, Resistance Fall of Man would be great!

The new mic makes a huge difference. Cheapy sounds much better.

The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction is backwards compatible and well worth $10.

Socom Fireteam Bravo 2, thanks.

I don't have a PS3 or a PSP, but I want to win Resistance, Killzone or Socom. Don't care which. I'd just save that shibby for a present or something.

just got finished listening to the show great show , valid points about the wii not having games. great show no more audio problems it seems thanks to the new mic.

i would like a entry for Resistance!

01-20-2007, 04:20 PM
Cheapy, while I usually respect the opinions expressed on the CAGCast, I have to completely disagree with your concerns about the Wii having a sparse release slate for 2007. I have total, unconditional faith that we will see a plentiful bounty of quality first-party and third-party games! (http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=117348) Where could you possibly be getting that notion from??

P.S. No way in Hell that we see both Metroid and Mario this Spring. The former, maybe (but probably more like June, which means July to me), the latter has been stated by Reggie himself, I believe, as a "Summer" release (which, of course, means October, which, of course, means Brawl in March...2008). Lap it up, loyalists!!

Great episode, it entertained me during my flight today (well, at least part of the way).

I disagree about the living room argument in regards to PC gaming. I have a wonderful gaming laptop connected to my HDTV at 1080p and can surf the net/play PC games from my couch. Wireless keyboard and mouse are the keys and it's a lot more comfortable than it sounds. You can also do this with a home theater PC, which is probably the more popular alternative.

Resistance: Fall of Man

This was my first time listening to the CAGcast, it's hard to find really good gaming related podcasts out there, most are just junk. I'm glad I found and subscribed to this one, looking forward to more episodes.

:applause:

Wombat perfectly expressed how 95% of the listening audience probably felt whenever Cheapy was explaining the new Japan X360 strategy.

I know this late, but I forgot to post in the last CAGcast thread.

I fully agree with you guys about Zelda being kind of overrated. When you look at how little the games have changed since OoT, it's obvious that it's got the fan service rating. It's the same thing with Final Fantasy, and a few other games though.

Great CAGcst guys, and looking at Cheapy's new mic makes me with I had a reason to buy a fancy smancy microphone!

And I'll toss my hat in for Killzone.

I'm probably miles too late for this, but I can't keep up with the podcast right when it comes out! I'd be interested in the copy of Killzone: Liberation for the PSP. Already played through Resistance, which I thoroughly enjoyed--I'm not sure why so many people are negative about it.
