CheapyD on ESPN2's Cold Pizza - AGAIN! (Thursday 2/24/05) GT4 & MVP 2005

[CheapyD]

Looks like I'm going to be back on Thursday, 2/24/05 to talk about Gran Turismo 4 and MVP Baseball 2005 (I had a chance to play both last week).
The show airs from 8AM-10AM EST on ESPN2. It is repeated immediately afterwards.
Last time, the segment aired around the 1 1/2 hour mark, but I don't know what time it will really air.



Old Post
The fine folks at ESPN2's Cold Pizza were kind enough to invite me on their program to discuss video game shopping, epecially online shopping.
I'm not sure when it will air, but I am taping it (EDIT) next week.

The show will air Airing Thursday, Feb 10th from 8AM-10AM EST on ESPN2

Thanks to guyver2077 for providing the video stream:

EDIT:

Ok, we are now doing a straight up preview of NBA Street 3/FIFA Street instead of the shopping segment. The had a little problem with "the ass" so we are going with www.CheapyD.com , which will get people here regardless.

[Murcielago77]

I would hope you dont plug CAG too much or else we'll get another 5,000 lurkers and hoarders. But it sounds good. Also im pretty sure that cold pizza is live, unless they are gonna tape it then play it some other day

[Gothic Walrus]

It seems you've forgotten the all-important "Comb ads for sales and check stores often for clearance deals." How could you leave those out? :wink:

[jimbodan]

That's really cool! Goodluck on the show and let us know when it airs!

[djak1]

brush your teeth :D

it may not be the appropriate place, and the general audience may not understand the implications, but how about a little "highlight" of EA's empire mission, and its impact on not only the gaming industry, but a bunch of PO'ed CAGs?! :twisted:

good luck BTW! :)

[CheapyD]

it may not be the appropriate place, and the general audience may not understand the implications, but how about a little "highlight" of EA's empire mission, and its impact on not only the gaming industry, but a bunch of PO'ed CAGs?! :twisted:

They actually discussed that 2 weeks ago.

[RaekwonThaChef]

Your responses seem good and thorough, great job Cheapy, be sure to let us know when we can see you on TV.

[RomaVictor]

Don't do that...no one will care. HELLO...EA makes Madden and NCAA football...The average person watching Cold Pizza is a sports gamer. THEY LOVE EA.

[WhipSmartBanky]

I would hope you dont plug CAG too much or else we'll get another 5,000 lurkers and hoarders. But it sounds good. Also im pretty sure that cold pizza is live, unless they are gonna tape it then play it some other day

As long as those lurkers and hoarders click CheapyD's links, they're good for the site. May not be good for you, but they're good for the continued operation of the site.

And yeah, your talking points sound fine. They're common sense to us, but like you said, you won't be addressing the typical CAG.

really? what was the "consensus?"

(also if there is a forum on CAG about it, just point the way, rather than clutter this forum) - thanks!

[Msut77]

Floss, brush your teeth comb your hair.

You really dont have to shower since we at home cant smell you.

[Ikohn4ever]

Dont mention that the girl named Kit was on road rules, I think she prob tries to forget that

[MightySlacker]

Isn't one of the chicks on that show hot? I vaguely remember the commercial. I'll PM you with my phone # to pass on just in case KTHX.

[Murcielago77]

Floss, brush your teeth comb your hair.

You really dont have to shower since we at home cant smell you.

im pretty sure cheapy has no hair to comb. And I forgot cheapy made cash from the cheapass links. Anyways, most of the sports enthusiusts that watch the show dont care about EA's "monopoly". They just want a quality sports game and thats what EA provides.

[evilmojo12542]

congrats looks like good stuff to me. i am so cheap do not have cable if anyone records it here maybe you can send me the file to watch it to

[Msut77]

CheapyD is bald? I figured he was just too lazy to draw hair on his avatar.

[rabbitt]

I read your points, and they seem pretty good for mainstream gamers. Maybe you should say something about waiting for maybe 2 weeks and the game will drop about 12 bucks.

I wish you the best of luck. Let us know when it airs so we can record it!!!

[Murcielago77]

take a glimpse at his gallery and cheapy has pics of himself on cold pizza before

[rywateska]

Plug the clan and the community...we're going national.

[ryan838]

I missed the last time you were on tv because I forgot to get up in time. This time though I'm going to make sure I watch it.

[steveovig]

Make sure to suck up to Woody a lot and tell him I said hi!!!

[Msut77]

Ill be damned either that guy interviewing him was short or CheapyD is tall.

He looks almost exactly like his avatar.

[dopa345]

I think those talking points are excellent.

[MadChedar0]

Cheapy the points look good, but one suggestion: I'd add a "Waiting a while for new releases" point. Maybe mention the virtue in waiting for pricedrops. Since most people are busy anyways, waiting a few weeks and saving some money might seem like a plausible idea. Or maybe just include that minor point in your last section, "Buy older titles."

Other than that, goodluck.

[Trakan]

All looks good. Be sure to tell us when you'll be on!

[WeaponX2099]

Use search engines to look for coupons that will decease the total cost or at least give the consumer free shipping.

[PSTwoGamer]

I'm not too sure about this but naming sites like ebgames, etc may not be allowed on air since they don't want to promote their businesses for free.

[soxfan4525]

Good Luck

[SleazyC]

Cheapy, congradulations on getting on to Cold Pizza, I'll make sure to record it as I mostl ikely will be working.

I think you should also mention to watch for special deals on pre-ordering games. You can usually get some great swag if you pre-order games and on the bigger games you can get free overnight shipping. This is great because in my experience most of the gaming stores don't get the new releases until the day after their target date, and you don't have to go out to get the game, it comes right to your door.

[Ledhed]

Hopefully they won't blank you like last time. Good luck and have fun. :wink:

[GameDude]

I would hope you dont plug CAG too much or else we'll get another 5,000 lurkers and hoarders. But it sounds good. Also im pretty sure that cold pizza is live, unless they are gonna tape it then play it some other day

This site is already very profitable. It's no longer about "keeping it operational." It's more about making more money now.

[dwsscs]

Your talking points are fine! Let us know when it will air!!

[SadieDee]

First of all, congrats! Tell us when it airs and remember to comb your hair. From the look of your avatar it seems like it needs it badly. ;-)

I think those topic points and the responses that you have laid out for them are great. You might want to add in the "turning unused games into money" point that looking at local, independent or small chain stores can yield some great deals and give more cash than major chains on trade ins as well.

In relation to GameRankings.com, Warner Bros. announced that that it will vary the amount it asks for royalties on video games based on game reviews from sites like GameRankings.com and MetaCritic.com so even companies are now using the internet to help prevent bad game development. I'm not sure if that was mentioned on the Game Industry boards or not, but just a FYI...can't help to remind at least. :P

http://www.gamespot.com/gamecube/action/charliesangels/news_6099292.html

It seems like you are very well prepared, GOOD LUCK!! :bouncy:

[TJordan522]

Awesome! Congrats Cheapy---your second time on Cold Pizza. I like all of the things you discuss in the OP-don't forget to let us know when you'll be on! Good luck!

[JSweeney]

Using the Internet to be a smart video game shopper

Video games are expensive, especially when you consider new DVD releases typically cost $20 and most newly released games cost $50. By using the Internet, you can easily educate yourself, and take advantage of the best deals on the best games.

That's a great point. You may want to throw in some numbers about comparative amount of time spend, about how you may watch a good dvd 2-3 times, but a good game will usually keep you entertained for almost 20 hours.

{If allowable/acceptable: The best way to educate yourself is to check out CheapAssGamer.com. CAG is a video game shopping community whose members are always on the lookout for the best video game sales and deals at online and local retailers. The members share their discoveries with each other on the site’s message board. This means you will always have the latest gaming sale information right at your fingertips.}

Brilliant. Short, concise, and not overly self-serving. If they allow it, say it.
Roll with the punches if they decided to call you on it... well all know you can :)

Here are some general tips that can stretch your gaming budget farther:

Using online resources to find the best quality games
There is nothing worse then spending hard earned money on a game that is a dud. Websites like GameRankings.com takes reviews from major gaming news sites and give each game an overall average review score.
You can get lists of the best-reviewed games according to genre and console platform, making it much easier to find well made games you might be interested in.

Good. That's solid advice.

Buy used games and save money.
Some online retailers offer used games for sale. EBgames.com, in particular has especially good deals and provides the original game box and manual for current generation games. They give the same return policy on their used products as their new products (30 days) and you can even go to a local store to return it there is a problem.
In addition, there are coupon codes and other promotions, which enable you to receive substantial discounts and free shipping.

Great. You may even want to mention old school stuff here, talking about the current rise in popularity of nostalgia driven franchises, and mention that the internet is a GREAT source for hunting these down.

Online rental services offer good value
Online rental services such as GameFly.com allow you to rent video games by mail, similarly to DVD rental services like Netflix. For $22 a month, you can have a 2 games out at a time. When you get tired of the game, you simply place the game in the supplied mailer and drop it in the mail box. Best of all, if decide you want to keep a game, GameFly charges you a reasonable price, and will then send you the next game on your rental list. They also sell used games at good prices to non-rental subscribers, but members get a small discount.

Sounds good.

Turning unused games into money
Major gaming retailers like EBgames, GameStop, and even Blockbuster will give you cash or credit for your trade-ins. Generally speaking, you will receive less than if you sold the game on Ebay, but it can be more convenient. Try to wait for special promotions to maximize your trade-in values. You can even trade games directly with other users on websites like CheapAssGamer.com

Great. I really like how you're keeping it general, and bringing in the names of specific companies only when necessary.

Buy older titles
There are literally hundreds of games available for all the current generation systems. Just because a game wasn’t released in the last few months doesn’t mean it should be ignored. Retailers will often try to clear these games out at a loss, just to make room for new inventory. These are the sales that get my users at CheapAssGamer.com the most excited as you can pick up great games for just a few dollars.

Mention the new tiered models that the companies have here... Player's Choice, Platinum and Greatest hits.

You may want to mention watching for those hidden gems, the games by smaller developers, even if published by major houses that can be found released at a budget price, but offer a full priced game experience.
The Sega Sports line is to mention here, as is Katamari Damacy.

[Kaijufan]

What day and time does Cold Pizza normally air?

[Negative]

Dont give our secrets away!!!!!

[guyver2077]

good luck

[Admiral Ackbar]

Tell them they need a new name. "Cold Pizza" sucks as a title. They've even been ridiculed on WIP.

[5_Against_1]

don't just pull it out on a first date. thats the advice you should give them. forget video game deals.

[andrew333]

Congrats on the revisit!!!

Please try and let us know the air date in an obvious way on the front page of the site.

[JSweeney]

Another point you may want to bring up...
Low release price (or price in general) does not always mean low quality software.

It's a stigma that exists, and will at times will scare away people from promising software, because it's been so drilled into people's minds.

There's a couple great examples of this, the best of them being things released recently at the 19.99 price point.

[KingDox]

You should mention that Dvds and games are usually on sale the first week they are out. If you don't get them the first week then you usually have to wait like a month before you see another price drop. Some times if you really want an item you should buy it the week it comes out.

[Dok Diamond]

damn, thats whats up gettin on tv for a cheapass website

[mtxbass1]

Damn, I watch Cold Pizza all the time. Thea is a hotty. Let is know when you are going to be on the show. Congrats!

[jlarlee]

Hey cheapy part of my military job is preparing higher ranked officers for TV appearances. If you would like some tips on making it go through easier just hit me with a PM. Your talking points look good keeping them short is the way to go. People will zone you out if they get too long. The fact that you prepared talking points tells me you already know a little bit about public speaking

[regisphilbi0]

Congrats on getting on Cold Pizza again. Good luck!

[CaseyRyback]

Make sure to suck up to Woody a lot and tell him I said hi!!!

Woody Paige is the man, sometimes he just has me rolling with the stupid stuff he says on ATH.


I think most of the points you made are really good, also make sure to mention the owner of CAG is a dick :wink:

[flowery]

congrats...time to suck some more schmoes in like me and spending grocery money on video games...

[fireball343]

You should mention that Dvds and games are usually on sale the first week they are out. If you don't get them the first week then you usually have to wait like a month before you see another price drop. Some times if you really want an item you should buy it the week it comes out. Great Point, i buy Cd's the first week too, stores like best buy will sell new releases for 9.99 most of the time. and Big discounts like 34.99 for Star Wars Republic Comando this week, the week it comes out!

Good Luck Cheapy, TiVo will be programed for this!!

[capnharlock]

You may want to touch on sports games. Good info for the ESPN2 crowd. Since they're yearly, sports titles get "obsolete" quickly. If you don't care about having the most up to date rosters, you can buy last year's hot sports title for just pennies on the dollar. Also point out that because of this, don't expect to get anything other than sympathy bucks when you trade in that outdated sports game.

[spoo]

My advice is:
1. Have a lighthearted conversation that is simple. I hate listening to long boring plugs on TV interviews.
2. Make points about how gaming is not just for the kiddies anymore.
3. Have a funny gaming story to tell.
4. Try to see if you can pull some strings with an affiliated company (EB, Outpost, Gamestop, etc.) to have a new sports title for 10-15% off for a few days to get sport gamers to sign up for the site.


Good luck Cheapy

[Zenithian Legend]

announce your candidacy in the 2008 election!

[willardhaven]

announce your candidacy in the 2008 election!

hahaha your posts are a delicious dish of extravagant flavor.

I second that nomination.

[Pizzicato Five]

I'd say the buy older titles is great advice. I do that. So many good games come out and I never have time to play them so by time I do it is usually $20 or so.

[Derwood43]

announce your candidacy in the 2008 election!

I can see it now...

"I'm CheapyD, and I approve this message."

[FriskyTanuki]

Any idea of when this will be airing? I'm usually up 7-8 AM, so I check out the show 4 out of 5 days during the week. Good luck.

[MorbidAngel4Life]

Congrats, Cheapster!

[dedgeu2]

A few things you could also mention (if not already) apart from the companies and retailers that we get deals from, you could mention how CAGs tend to find ways to trade or sell hardware and games to other fellow CAGs.

We tend to give each other heads up on reviews, opinions, strategies, and even daily news that, although might not be relevant to gaming directly, it sure keeps us entertained.

Good luck and make sure your fly is up! :D

OH NO! I just realized when Cheapy goes on Cold Pizza we're going to find out what his real name is and the "CheapyD" mystique will be forever tarnished... unless he can find a way to just go on as CheapyD, kind of like Bozo the Clown, Prince or Grimace never use their real names.

The taping was postponed until next week.
This weekend, there is some kind of major sporting event called the Super Bowel which is requiring the CP talent to be out of town.

Ya know, if more of you used the DONATE TO CAG (http://www.cheapassgamer.com) button on the front page, you'd already know his first name.....

:rofl:

[ZForce915]

My suggestion would be to never pre-order a game unless you get some added benefit (i.e. free guide or tshirt). Otherwise you set yourself up for a guarenteed $50 purchase.

Also, like it was mentioned, if you can wait about a month someone is bound to discount the game just a little and you can save a couple of bucks. Buying on release day is dumb.

[Tespo125]

OMG I can't believe it's been a year since your first appearance on Cold Pizza! It seems like yesterday! Keep on keepin' on!

[andrew333]

instead of going on cold pizza, you should send an emissary like matt damon did with ben affleck to matt damon's first job interview in good will hunting

[Backlash]

Any word yet on when it will air?

[CheapyD]

Ok, there has been a change in plans!
I'm taping tomorrow morning.
We are no longer talking about game shopping, but are now doing a straight up preview of NBA Street 3 and FIFA Street (which I played today).

Also, they are a little weary with the "ASS" so we are going with www.CheapyD.com

If I play my cards right (and don't choke) hopefully ill be back!

[dcfox]

I say you make a statement and refuse to play EA's games on national tv, Cheapy.

[Zman310]

Awesome! This is live, right? If so, I better set up a tape for tomorrow. Good luck Cheapy.

Dude, it says he's taping tomorrow.. TAPING. Not live. :P

Sorry, thought I'd read earlier in the thread that it was live, therefore, I was somewhat confused.

[CheapyD]

My guess is it will air Thursday, as thats when all the gamers segments air.
I will let you know if i find out an exact time that the clip will air.

thanks for the support!

See I was wondering about that... this has a more general feel to it, which could be very good for you. If Cold Pizza sees its key demo as people that love videogames, and you go over well with the viewership, they could possibly have you on in a recurring basis... which would be great for you.... plus, CheapyD.com could end up being more than just a simple redirector to Cheapassgamer. Considering what you've posted, you obviously have personality... hopefully you have stage presence as well.
It would be great for you if this could become a normal thing.
Not only do you get hits for your site, you'll probably get on lists for press copies of games for developers and somesuch.
I mean heck, look at the tools they have on G4... you couldn't be any worse than them :)

I just got back from taping the segment and it went pretty well. I didn't throw up on myself or soil myself in anyway which to me, means success!

The segment will air Thursday's show on ESPN2 from 8-10AM (it then gets repeated immediately afterwords). I should know the exact time the segment will air by tomorrow.

[Ledhed]

Rock.

Setting the TiVo now.

Im gonna take a glance at ESPN2 when i wake up on thursday. Hopefully there will be a clip on here.

I just set my tivo to record it, looking forward to watching it!

Awesome Cheapy! Can't wait to watch it.

Congrats on the 2nd appearance Cheapy. Setting TiVo to tape it, since I have to be at work.

I was at the taping.

Cheapy was clutch. I think you'll be seeing more of him next to that hippie and the chick from Road Rules.

[bil4l]

Hopefully someone will upload the clip, cuz I' not getting up at 6, and I don't have a VCR or TIVO!

So, he's the a member and you and dcfox are the boys?

Nooooooooooooo! Don't sack me with dcfox!

I'll be the left one since WSB as a ball just feels so right. :wink:

:rofl:

Oh man I actually laughed hard after I read that.


Cheapy, you better not have used your real name, I don't want it to spoil the "Mystique" it'd be like finding out Orgazmo's real name.

[CheapyD]

Cheapy, you better not have used your real name, I don't want it to spoil the "Mystique" it'd be like finding out Orgazmo's real name.

Hmmm...you better cover your ears when I get introduced.

I was at the taping.

Cheapy was clutch. I think you'll be seeing more of him next to that hippie and the chick from Road Rules.
Thanks Sundance, you da man!

[CaseyRyback]

I wish I had Tivo so I could have recorded todays and tomorrows episode.

Woody Paige pulled his pants down like Carmello, and was wearing these bright blue boxers

[amusedtoe]

I wish I had cable. :( This is awesome though. :D

[The Successful Dropout]

I wish I had cable. :( This is awesome though. :D

i feel your pain :cry:

[beerguy961]

That clip of the guy yakking: awesome.

Just realizing that I'm wearing the sweatshirt that I wore last time I yakked: bad.

CAG on TV: Scary yet awesome...

[scargums]

yeah i just saw that clip too, watched it like 5 times... damn hippy

[smellhasreturned]

:rofl: at that guy puking

i dont even know what u look like cheapy but i will be sure to watch if i have a snow day tomorrow

[CaseyRyback]

:rofl: at that guy puking

i dont even know what u look like cheapy but i will be sure to watch if i have a snow day tomorrow

check his gallery.

I saw cheapy the first time on Cold Pizza. Shame I will miss him this time (since I have morning classes and I doubt it airs at 11:45 or later)

[cruzincontrol]

I don't get that channel I'm hoping that someone will have a link to a Media File so I and other fellow CAGers can watch it....Will that be possible Cheapy?

[Cereal]

can you touch/pick your nose to let us know youer thinking of all of us.. that would be so.... special.

kinda homo. but special at the same time nonetheless.

[cronnos]

I would hope you dont plug CAG too much or else we'll get another 5,000 lurkers and hoarders. But it sounds good. Also im pretty sure that cold pizza is live, unless they are gonna tape it then play it some other day

As long as those lurkers and hoarders click CheapyD's links, they're good for the site. May not be good for you, but they're good for the continued operation of the site.

And yeah, your talking points sound fine. They're common sense to us, but like you said, you won't be addressing the typical CAG.

That is exactly what I was going to say Whip... Nice going Cheapy, this is great marketing (free, or cheapass actually) for the site. I'll make sure I Tivo-it.

[help1]

nice

[RedvsBlue]

Aww man, I don't have any classes tomorrow but 7 am (local time) is soooo early....

[Trakan]

7 a.m. central? Bah. I guess I'm setting the alarm for tomorrow.

[FriskyTanuki]

I probably won't be up then, but I'll make sure to set my vcr to tape it.

[Theenternal]

funny, I have a news interview to do today in about half an hour... I hope i can do better than that guy have a better vomit session :)

[SneakyPenguin]

I set up the TiVo for it, as I'll either be in school, or in the blissful confines of sleep.

[rvdrock]

It will be Tivoed...

[ZForce915]

Before the clip and after, there is a small music clip. What is that from? Sounds like a video game...

[CheapyMom]

If you're Tivo-less, in another time zone or just miss Cheapy's taped appearance between 8am - 10am ET, it looks like you'll get another chance at it. According to Cold Pizza's web site, the show encores on tape between 10am - 12pm ET. :D

That is soo cool. Hi, Mrs. Cheapy (the original, not the newer one, but hi to her too!)!

Edit- And by original I don't mean as in cheapy's first wife, I mean if he did there's nothing wrong with that...I'm gonna stop now.

[rogerdarabbit]

You have to do something that salutes your followers here. Do some sort of inside joke shoutout to the people here.

[guyver2077]

yea i saw cheapy the first time he came on....cant miss ya a second time..

and guys ill try to post the video tomm as well

[waffles 'n' syrup]

I've been watching Cold Pizza, but missed the first half hour. Has Cheapy been on?

[Trakan]

I've been watching since the start and haven't seen him.

[ryan838]

I just turned it on like 15 minutes ago and they said that they would be talking to a gamer about the street games later in the show. I think hes going to be on towards the end of the show.

[sisco1986]

I've been watching Cold Pizza, but missed the first half hour. Has Cheapy been on?

I'm wondering the same thing. God I love snow days.

[waffles 'n' syrup]

I've been watching since the start and haven't seen him.Was he invisible? :shock:

I'll have to go, but I'll record the rest of the show.

[CheapyD]

Well, I had to go to work, so looks like I wont catch it until tonight.
I'll be in Chat Room (http://www.cheapassgamer.com/chat) if you want to hang out..

[mtxbass1]

It came on at 9:32 eastern. CheapyD was clutch. I wanted to smack that other guy however. :)

[Blues]

That was good, I think you had a better presence than that other guy.

[Trakan]

Yeah, he comes on about an hour and a half into the two hour program.

[sisco1986]

Cool, just finished watching it. Good job cheapy, Who was the second guy?

[Zenithian Legend]

Cheapy will you sire my next pony?

[CheapyD]

Come on now, Sundance is the man. He is incredibly nice and down to earth, which is way more than you can expect for anyone with his resume (http://www.coldpizza.tv/gamers.html).

Thanks for watching!

[magilacudy]

I just saw it about 5 minutes ago. It was good, but seemed kind of rushed.

Cool, just finished watching it. Good job cheapy, Who was the second guy?
I think he was the CP "game analyst".

Anybody else think Cheapy sounds like that guy from Everybody Loves Raymond?

[mtxbass1]

Ok, I take what I said back. Anyone with the name Sundance has already had to endure enough smackings. j/k

[dedgeu2]

CheapyD---you looked relaxed, in control, comfortable and it seemed like you were having fun. You did great my man! :applause:

[guyver2077]

im watchin the replay now...

[Ledhed]

Just finished watching it. Pretty cool.

The only letdown was when they didn't say the real URL. :lol:

[dracula]

Just finished watching it. Pretty cool.

CheapyD.com

I don't blame them. But dammit, I wanted to hear the truth. :lol:

[Backlash]

It was pretty good. I don't think Cheapy got enough of a chance to talk - Sundance hogged all the airtime. He even interrupted when the host directed a question to Cheapy.

I was kinda surprised neither of you mentioned NBA Jam. That was the first thing I thought of when I saw NBA Street. So maybe these "street" games aren't all that new after all :)

[Ledhed]

If you're going that route, I'd say CB's Shut Up and Jam was the first "street-ball" game. But Cheapy did mention the most glaring omission to the Street franchise: NHL Street.

[dedgeu2]

Great job CheapyD. You looked like you were having fun. Wish you didn't have to share the time with that Sundance dude. Either way it seemed like you enjoyed it!

Maybe this could lead to something more like your own CheapyD TV show!

[CheapyD]

Actually, there was an old PC game, Street Sports Basketball that was a real street basketball game. It was pretty good.

You picked your team from a bunch of neighborhood kids.

Yeah definitely good call on NHL Street Cheapy.

[flizmo007]

Just watched it.. Good Job.

[RedvsBlue]

Is that one female host that interviewed Cheapy and "the other guy" the girl that used to be on the Real World?

Also, good job Cheapy. Representin' the CAG!

Still wish you would have said shaq-fu at least somewhere in there... If only the conversation had gone to basketball themed games.

[thorbahn3]

I turned it on at just the right time. The dude kept talking about sports franchises getting sallowed up but forgot to mention EA started this mess. Also your voice is so deep.

[thorbahn3]

Is that one female host that interviewed Cheapy and "the other guy" the girl that used to be on the Real World?

It was the first season of Road Rules.

[lord_slappy]

Cool! Jon Bon Jovi was on. Any chance to see him? I missed the show. No ESPN at home. It's a sad existence.

CHEAPY ON TV (http://www.themiamifamily.com//Videos/CHEAPYONTV.WMV)

[ArthurDigbySellers]

Well it looks like I got screwed (by Cox, how ironic!). I set my DVR to record the show and those shaq-fu'ers put on an emergency broadcast which knocked my recording off at about the 1 hour mark. I tuned into the second recording but it looks like I just missed it b/c I heard Kit talk about "gamers" as they went to commercial and they haven't shown anything since.

This sucks. Did someone else record it so we can get an mpeg or something?

EDIT: Guyver, you are the man! Thanks.

Thanks Guyver!

Edit: Shoot, something must be wrong with my PC. Even after I saved the file locally, the video keeps getting stuck on certain parts while audio keeps running.

[jlarlee]

Good job man I am pretty sure you nailed a recurring role. Besides a bit of nervous twitching at the beginning you came across perfectly

[WhipSmartBanky]

guyver2077, thanks!

Very impressive...I still think you should've worn a CAG t-shirt and posted on the boards via your Sidekick while Sundance talked. :lol:

[Kaijufan]

I can't wait to get home and watch the interview.

[MightySlacker]

CheapyD should change his name to SexyD. I'd hit it.

Dave

[jalu6]

Nice Job Cheapy.

Thats pretty interesting that they used a Capcom (RE4) sponsored segment to plug 2 EA franchises.

[repetske]

Nice job. Too bad you didn't get interviewed by that Thea chick. Not that Kit Hoover is bad to look at, but I'm sure everyone looks creepy with TV makeup on.

[Ledhed]

CheapyD should change his name to SexyD. I'd hit it.

Dave

The whole time I was watching, all I could think was, "Cheapy has the clearest skin ever." :lol:

[Saucy Jack]

Damn it! Looks like I missed this. Never knew that Cheapy was going to be on TV. Oh, well...

I'm sure that you did great. Congratulations, Cheapy.

[jetblac]

CheapyD! you sexy baldhead.

[smellhasreturned]

CheapyD should change his name to SexyD. I'd hit it.

Dave :shock:

i didnt get to see it cuz of no snowday but im downloading the file from Guyver. thanks btw Guyver :bouncy:

[DesertEagleXIX]

Cheapy,

I think the interviewer was interested in your 'trick stick'.

Are you friends with Sundance? Because it seemed like we was competing for air-time with you. Let the Cheapster speak, man! I hate when a person interrupts someone making a point.

Great job, man!

[FriskyTanuki]

Just saw the show, great job, Cheapy.

[Duo_Maxwell]

Nicely done Cheapy...And a great comment on the Street Hockey thing. All of us hockey fans have been wanting a new Street hockey game since NBA Street first appeared and now it's like a crime IMO that soccer gets one before hockey.

[smellhasreturned]

wow u did a great job cheapy. if i was you i would have puked like that guy :)

[zewone]

Nice job Cheapy.

[mariomarino]

Great job Cheapy, hey I was on TV too. Next time you see the COPS episode where they are filming in Tampa check me out. I'm the guy running barefoot with no shirt and jeans, holding a beer.

[ryanbph]

good work cheapy, were you nervous?...the chick interviewer gave you a congrats

[Scorch]

I thought this show was 2 hours, you only had a 2 minute segment? Good thing I didn't get up that early, phew. GOOD CALL ON NHL STREET. EA or not, if this was on XBox and was on Live, i'd throw down $50 for it in a heartbeat. Good job.

Great job Cheapy, hey I was on TV too. Next time you see the COPS episode where they are filming in Tampa check me out. I'm the guy running barefoot with no shirt and jeans, holding a beer.

:rofl::rofl:

I literally laughed out loud at that!

[CheapyD]

good work cheapy, were you nervous?...the chick interviewer gave you a congrats
I was a bit nervous, but the Cold Pizza crew are so nice and tried really hard to make me feel comfortable. I think it worked.

[ryanbph]

it didn't show if you were, i think she wanted you :lol:

[davidmt]

Just saw the bit on my TIVO, thanks Cheapy for fixing the www.cheapyd.com link -- I can easily access CAG from work now.

man... it was hard to stay awake til nearly 10am, I just kept thinking... "gotta..watch...cheapy" I even fell asleep at one point, only to bounce back awake in time to catch the cheapexpress.

[shrike4242]

I turned it on at just the right time. The dude kept talking about sports franchises getting sallowed up but forgot to mention EA started this mess. Also your voice is so deep.

For those of us who play with CheapyD on XBL, we already knew about his deep voice. :D

[gameguy22006]

Great job Cheapy, I thought that was a good point you made about the idea of a NHL Street game.

[sisco1986]

Great job Cheapy, I thought that was a good point you made about the idea of a NHL Street game.

Street dodge ball, for the love of god mention street dodge ball if you ever get called back!

[Ravaged]

Yea, Dodge Ball Street would kick so much ass. Anyway, nice job cheapy.

[Kaijufan]

I watched the reviews when I got home from school and I thought you did a great job Cheapy.

[goosedude]

Having played video games so many years with Mr. CheapyD.......I new that he would slip in a reference to the NHL somehow.....hahaha.
Great job......I can't remember when you've been that clean shaven.

However, I do think that the light gleaming off your head was a plot by EA and ESPN to hypnotize viewers into buying NBA Street........which I did later that day.
Mwahahahahaha!!!

[willardhaven]

CheapyD, you are delightful.

I hope you're on again soon, I have to say, you have quite the charismatic television presence.

[Mike23]

Whoever has the file, PM me. I'd love to see it.

[WhipSmartBanky]

The link to it is on the first page of this thread, CheapyD's post, Mike.

[Steggy]

sweet, this is a must watch for me.

Man, you guys don't even READ, you just post...

[cruzincontrol]

Hey Cheapy I agree that that Sundance thing took up too much of your time...Man only two minutes...Also a little disappointed you weren't able to spread the "cheapness" philosophy that you initially had in your agenda....

Oops major mistake on my part. Sorry guys I"m super uber double multitasking and checking out what I missed on CAG....not to mention I'm sort of in a hurry.

[rogerdarabbit]

Sorry, but I'll be brave enough to tell you the truth...

I haven't read the 12pgs of this thread, so maybe this was the gameplan all along, but you didn't seem like you knew much. That other guy wasn't great but still blew you away. You should have been more prepared to really put yourself out there...Maybe next time.

here comes the flames...

here comes the flames...
If his goal was plugging the site, he probably failed, but I don't think thats why he was there. He didn't look terribly out of place, he looked like just another guy that you'd see on G4 or anywhere. He looked a little nervous, but we'd notice that more than anyone else, since we're watching him and not the show. As for not knowing much, this wasn't exactly politics, he did what was asked of him and made some good points. I don't think I would have been able to look that good on national TV.

A lot of people would have just said that the soccer game was great, since everything EA touches is gold. Even the other guy couched his comments a little bit.

I'm sure if he wanted to, he could use this to get more spots on cable, something like G4, maybe one of the shows thats getting cancelled soon. He didn't look nearly as stupid as some of the people on that station. He did fine for someone who isn't on TV regularly, or was never on TV before.

[CheapyD]

That other guy wasn't great but still blew you away. You should have been more prepared to really put yourself out there...Maybe next time.

here comes the flames...
Not only did Sundance outperform me on air, but after the show, he kicked my ass in the parking lot and stole my bike and my socks.

Seriously though, I know there is lots of room for improvement, but I was fairly satisfied with my performance. I hope I get the opportunity to work on my skills.
Thanks for watching.

Bah! It's not like he was competing with acting gods like my beloved Eric Bana!

It's a damn sports morning show that just so happened to be talking about video games, man. Ease up.

Cheapy I think you did a great job, man.

Well if you would have read the entire thread, you would have realized that the original segment was going to be a discussion about buying videogames (and obviously getting a good deal):

The fine folks at ESPN2's Cold Pizza were kind enough to invite me on their program to discuss video game shopping, epecially online shopping.

That was scrapped and they decided to go with a preview of the new EA "street" games; quite a change in subjects. Cheapy is not a game reviewer, he is, to quote the Coen Brothers, the paterfamilias of CAG.

Given the situation he was put in, I think he did a great job. Hopefully they will bring back the cheap-ass buying topic so Cheapy can go back on CP again.

[The-Bavis]

I just watched the feed and I thought Cheapy did great. I also didn't read all 12 pages of this to see what others thought. Sure, the Sundance guy talked more and got to get more in depth, but he's the regular and Cheapy's the guest. Cheapy did a good job of shutting up when he was clearly supposed to.

By the end of it, though, the two of you were starting to look more and more alike to me.

Hope they have you on to straight-up plug your site some time.

[rogerdarabbit]

thanks for jumping on me. Not sure why he would go on Cold pizza to talk about buying video games cheap. I agree he made good points, but there definitely could have been more. I like the direction though of his dialogue though. Anyhoo, nice job for a 1st timer.

And to the haters, not everyone watching the show visits cheapass and reads the 12pgs of support. I gave an objective view from my perspective. Didn't mean to be harsh at all cheapy, but I'm not here to waste my time and be the 100th person to make a comment about your bald head.

btw, this cheapass name must be a pain in the butt for you by now!

[radjago]

I think the only problem with the segment is that it was too short. Sure it's a sports show and everything, but you could see there were two gamers there just dying to talk at length about the issue of sports gaming and there was only 2 minutes or so to cram everything in.

[MorbidAngel4Life]

Cheapy, you are one SEXY beast!

[GTmaster39]

I totally pictured CheapyD as some other kind of dude, I knew he was bald, but that was it. Jesus.... Cheapy, youre voice is deep.

Good Job by the way.

Don't get yourself down, you seemed to know alot but the other guy talked more, you did great in my opinion, also alot of people don't realize how hard it is to be on T.V.

[Wshakspear]

Cheapy was doing at least one thing completely right that the other guy was doing completely wrong: talking down to the audiences level. Basic sports gamers dont care about the rest of the industry. Cheapy got some points about the games accross, while the other guy was throwing out things about the EA merger, something that no one outside of gaming gives a crap about.

[kaji7p56]

He did pretty good. Better than I did my first time speaking in front of people. Hopefully he'll get brought back and become a regular. He can then leave this little website when he goes "Hollywood".

It's the big time, Cheepy!

[CheapyD]

Looks like I'm going to be back on this week (Week of 2/21/05) to talk about Gran Turismo 4 and MVP Baseball 2005 (I had a chance to play both last week).

Taping is tomorrow (Wednesday) and it will likely air Thursday, but I'm not 100% sure on that.

Good time for pluggin....Missed it the first time. You should get a CAG temporary tat for that cranium of yours. Or a Monkey. Either one would work.

Disnt you make a print-out at E3 from GT4? You could bring that in...all show-and-tell like :)
