Whos the better CagCast host Wombat or CheapyD ? (thats right i went there)

[smellhasreturned]

CheapyD's velvety voice (that highly resembles vince vaughn)

heres a photo of CheapyD on Night Court

Or the Comical Wombat

VOTING STARTS NOW BAH GAWD !

[Autumn Star]

I truly cannot decide. But if I had to pick one. It would be CheapyD Just because he owns this website.

[Brodiemegacorp]

Oh, gotta be CheapyD because he is a sexy beast.

[MaskedPlague]

For some reason, I voted for Wombat... I am not sure what compelled me to do so...

[smellhasreturned]

thats the spirit !

[Graystone]

I just randomly clicked one. So I have no idea what I voted.

[Professor Oreo]

I think I prefer Cheapy's tone of voice over Wombat's. Wombast definitely sounds like the off-the-wall sidekick to Cheapy's lead host.

That being said, cheapy sounded like a total psycho when he burst into frightening laughter at one point discussing the xbox 360. :hot:

i laughed at that laugh

[smellhasreturned]

Ba bump

[sblymnlcrymnl]

I wouldn't know ... I haven't listened to any of them. :oops:

[evanft]

I pleasure myself to the sound of CheapyD's voice. :joystick:

Which one was this in? I would like to hear this Cheapy laugh.

CAGcast #3.

[sj41]

Gotta go with Wombat, "The annoying guy".

[Mike23]

Wombat could carry my children, if he asked.

[flowery]

Thay are both great. Cheapy gets the edge because of the soothing touch.

[Wombat]

I just showed this thread to my wife.... and she voted for cheapy :(

and a free huzzah for all those who voted for me

[spoo]

I voted for Wombat because in CAGcast 3 CheapyD laghed @ one point way to close to the mic and scared the living bejesus out of me :shock:

[The VGM]

Oh, gotta be CheapyD because he is a sexy beast.

2nded

[smellhasreturned]

we need more votes for wombat :D

[Wombat]

we need more votes for wombat :D

agreed ;)

[Wombat]

I refuse to let this thread die, :)

[Derwood43]

I voted for CheapyD simply because his delivery does not seem forced.

Nothing against Wombat, but I feel Cheapy is the better "lead" man.

Great work, the both of you! Keep up the good job.

BTW, my wife thought that Cheapy was Vince Vaughn.

[woobacca]

Voting for wombat, to mix it up a little.

[willardhaven]

Wait, Wombat sounds like he's 18-20 and he's married? how old are you guys?

I voted for Wombat, because he acts as I would on the air.

wombat5277, 5/2/77, get it?

Also to address the not sounding polished, I also run the mixing and editing equipment while we record, multitasking is hard Derwood :)

[chickenhawk]

I refuse to let this thread die, :)

Until you take over the lead right? ;) Sadly, I voted for Cheapy.

Wombat, PM sent.

[Quackzilla]

CheapyD, mostly because I like Night Court.

[Demolition Man]

CheapyD, since he sounds like he could legitimately kick all of our fucking asses without breaking a sweat. :shock:

[smellhasreturned]

when all the smoke is cleared and the dust has settled Wombat will be victorious

[vanlandw]

They work well together...I did not vote.....hopefully the CAGCast will just keep getting better


gg+brb

[JSweeney]

Neko Hime rules them both. :)

[MaxBiaggi2]

we need more votes for wombat :D

Why would anyone want to vote for that annoying other guy? :D

[Lord Draconus777]

Wombat's a host? I thought he was just an annoying side kick XD. jk

[uzumaki_star]

Voted for Wombat because I enjoy his banter.

[kittie]

This show needs guest hosts.

I offer my services.

[dopa345]

Wombat sounds like a wise-ass. Had to vote for him.

[JSweeney]

This show needs guest hosts.

I offer my services.

I'd still rather hear Neko Hime. :)

[guardian_owl]

Voted for Wombat because ya gotta root for the underdog.

[JimmieMac]

I got next.

[JSweeney]

I got next.

Done correctly, that could be a really good listen.

[kittie]

I got next.

I think me and you together would be the best option.

[JimmieMac]

But you would just hype and never show.

[kittie]

Of course, I would show.

But, not until the last 2 minutes of the show.

[Brak]

Of course, I would show.

But, not until the last 2 minutes of the show.

Should have said "not until the second date".

[MaxBiaggi2]

Voted for Wombat because ya gotta root for the underdog.

If supporting the underdog is the "right thing to do," why did Sony have so many raging fanboys this hardware generation? :D

[JSweeney]

But you would just hype and never show.

Yeah, I could see that happening.

For all the things for good or for ill said about JimmieMac, if he says he's going to be in a chat, post pictures, or whatever, you can be fairly certain that he's going to do it.

[Wombat]

well we are recording cagcast 4 tonight, if we hit 100 votes maybe this will be a topic on the show, I would like to quote the best responses as well, so lets get those votes in.

Well, if anything, it should provide fodder for some fun banter.

[ryanbph]

I voted for wombat, cheapy got the smooth voice. Wombat reminds me of Kevin Pereira before he was a host.

[Wombat]

wow, 100 votes exactly, you still have an hour to possibly get quoted, so keep posting

[kittie]

Ask for Cheapy's thoughts on me. Thanks.

[JimmieMac]

You aint gonna believe this......

[zewone]

You aint gonna believe this......
I'm listening.

i voted for cheapy because i've seen his nipples

No way you're that old.... It can't be... I thought you were like 17 or 18 haha... :roll:

[magius360]

I voted for cheapy because [no offense] Wombat's voice is a little irritating. Besides, without cheapy, there would be no CAGcast. Its kinda mandatory to vote for him!

Not really, but seriously, we wouldn't be posting here or listening to the latest CAGcast if it weren't for him.

[Autumn Star]

Bump because this thread is teh shit.

[$hady]

Jimmie Mac got on there and they all got gansta in the last episode. I kept waiting for Cheapy to start slappin hoes and shit.....

I voted for Wombat because he has low self esteem and i'm trying to make him feel better....;)

[Wombat]

Hey kids stop fighting, this thread is about me remember. ;) oh and Cheapy, its about him too

[Brak]

Wombat sounds like a more delicate, higher-pitched Woody Allen...

Cheapy sounds like a gentler Vin Diesel...

... I'm torn.

[The Successful Dropout]

Hey kids stop fighting, this thread is about me remember. ;) oh and Cheapy, its about him too

i mentioned this in the main thread about the CagCasts, but it may have been over-looked by you and Cheapy...you guys should include a "coming out this week" segment on your CagCasts where you discuss whats coming out that week or the following week...you could even talk about which games you think will sell well and which will drop (in price) fast, etc

just a suggestion :D

[Wombat]

new show, new bump

[sblymnlcrymnl]

new show, new bump

I wouldn't have known if you didn't mention it here. :lol:

[Wombat]

Cagcast 6 is on the air, time for more voting, go me :)

I already voted for you. Whaddya want, my left nut?

[Wombat]

Damn, and I just packed them all up too...
Eh, whatever, I voted for Wombat too.

[Hex]

Wombat, because he has hair and can play a mean fake guitar. :D

[triforcer]

voted wombat because he's the wacky character in the duo, while cheapy plays the straight man.

[Reality's Fringe]

:rofl: guess I'll be joining Brutus and Judas in Lucifer's mouth in the frozen depths of Hell.

Dante is teh suck. You owe me a game!

[Wombat]

its been over a month and new show is the the air, lets see some new votes people

[SpreadTheWord]

I voted for Wombat. He has the same sense of humor as me, the way he turns everything into a sexual reference.

[Wombat]

cheapy award season bump

Nice new avy wombat and CAGcast logo.

[guardian_owl]

[crystalklear64]

Yea.. Cheapy is the win.. Wombat carries his title well.

[smellhasreturned]

eh jeeezus i forgot i made this topic

damn it we need more wombat votes.

[Wombat]

rise from your grave......

need more wombat votes

[Brak]

rise from your grave......
WISE FWUM YO GWAVE*

[doctorfaustus]

Voted for wombat 'cause he appears to have more video game knowledge than Cheapo.

[furyk]

Voted for Wombat because he is made of nonsense and bitterness. Plus, short guys have to back each other!

[mik]

I cast my vote for Wombat. I dig Cheapy's voice and really think that he's the glue that keeps the show together, but I love the fact that Wombat comes off as a kind of goofy guy, but every once in a while screws up and demonstrates that he's really wicked smart.

[AlbinoNinja]

originally, i voted cheapy, but i gotta change to wombat for being sarcastic, underappreciated, and less likely to burp during the recording

[lordwow]

No offense to Wombat, but Cheapy seems to have more quirky stories. And that laugh... and the Mario Impression.

But both of them are great.

[KaneRobot]

Who was the guy who told the story about the guy eating a piece of shit for money? I think it was Cheapy, but I'm not sure. My vote goes to whoever DIDN'T tell that story. I was eating lunch when that came on...even worse, it was Taco Bell.

[MusicNoteLess]

My vote goes to Wombat because I beat Cheapy at Mariokart DS. :D

[ch3zyp00fs]

WOMBAT for the win.

In all honesty I wanted the free "Huzzah."

[Scobie]

I like what I'm readin' there, L33T-speak cheesy poofster! Wombat-mania is runnin' wild in this thread!!!!!11eleven

[niceguyshawne]

Both are great Wombat is the perfect foil to Cheapy's straight man.

[wageslave]

cheay has the voice but Wombat has the better delivery IMO. Gotta go with Wombat. Plus I really liked the "I want free stuff" bit more than the shit eating and burping bits.

[yukine]

Wombat.

But honestly, the CAGcast wouldn't be nearly as entertaining if it didn't have that nice balance of Wombat's silliness, and CheapyD's wit. Wombat is just Jelly to CheapyD's Peanut Butter, so to speak...

[McBacon]

Cheapy is so generous, he just gives stuff away to charity and his friends, and he leads the perfect lifestyle.

He's like a hero, but bald and runs a website about cheap games :P

[Abalistar]

I gotta go with Cheapy, simply because I always laugh when he lets out his retarded Dracula laugh(I believe he referred to it as that in an early cast).

The show would be lame without ethier one of them though.

[Sarang01]

I like Cheapy because he's got the better voice.

Jeez I know Wombat's going to hate me for this but Wombat here's the # for Barry Bond's Physician: 1-888-STEROIDS . ;-P

[pimpinc333]

Wow, can't believe in didn't see this thread sooner. My vote goes to CheapyD. He keeps the CAGcast moving along while Wombat is always tring to throw late ass/lame ass jokes in the mix.

While Wombat can be funny sometimes ( Maybe 15% of his jokes are ) he slows down the show and cheapy is always there to rescue it from an awkward silence.

Speaking of CAGcast the best/ most funniest one was #42. Guess Why.

[graf1k]

It's close but I'll give it to Cheapy provided he throws in the occassional "Big Ass Chains $$$$er!!!" every now and then.

[dyreschlock]

the CagCast wouldn't be the same if neither CheapyD nor Wombat weren't there, so i cannot vote for either over the other. They bring out the best in each other ^_^

[JMEPO]

This thread needs to be brought back. I'm in for Wombat

[jraf]

wombat FTW!!!

[Alphant]

I refuse to let this thread die, :)

O RLY?

[Thomas96]

I can't pick one... I like them both equally. Cheapy is like Madden and Wombat is like Al Micheals.

[Xrazor]

Wombat, ever since Cheapy had a kid, but its tought now that Wombat never gets sleep, neither does his wife.

[GAMERMASTERMAN]

I voted Wombat.
Wombat FTW!!! :whee:

[Chronotrigga]

This is obviously a test. With over 120 posts in this thread and over 300+ votes, only two people, including myself, say both. I applaud niceguyshawne and myself. For the rest, you have all failed.

Both are great Wombat is the perfect foil to Cheapy's straight man.

http://www.greenfreak.net/wp-content/myfotos/people_2005/dj_cake.jpg
(random boy cutting cake -- look at that long knife! That's a good knife for killin'.)

Both are great. Keep up the great work. Choosing between CheapyD or Wombat is like cutting a cake. No matter where you cut, you still get the cakey goodness with icing inside. Granted, some slices can give you more icing, but you get less of the cakey goodness. Or, vice versa. No matter what you do, it evens itself out.

[Hostile]

Cheapy talks about some nasty stuff on a video game podcast so I'm tired of that. Wombat is my favorite CAGcast host and looking at this topic, he's loved more than he thinks he is.

[magiic]

I really don't think you can have one without the other. I think the CAGCast wouldn't be very good if it was just cheapy or just wombat. Their different styles combined are what makes it fun to listen to.

[E*Master]

I just showed this thread to my wife.... and she voted for cheapy :(

and a free huzzah for all those who voted for me
Uh Oh. You better straighten that out lol. I think you can't vote who is better. The show needs both elements to balance out; that of CheapD and Wombat. Kinda like a yin yang it just does not complete the circle without the other half.

[Quintessence]

I just showed this thread to my wife.... and she voted for cheapy :(

and a free huzzah for all those who voted for me

OWNED :whee:


I did vote for you though Wombat!

[dmbgreyst]

Happy Easter SUCKAAA!! Both you are great

[Unickuta]

I can't pick one... I like them both equally. Cheapy is like Madden and Wombat is like Al Micheals.

They got taken off the broadcast team for Madden 08. :cold:

[smellhasreturned]

oh wow this topic still exists o_O

[Xo ColdKilla oX]

wombat caz cheapys a jerk

[smellhasreturned]

wombat caz cheapys a jerk

A fine reason

[NTolerance]

Both. You have to have both if CheapyD is going to make fun of Wombat.

[ruanime]

I going with wombat on this one.

[sonicfreak5]

wombat is more jewish and plays bass. he wins in my book. but cheapy is more straight with the facts while wombat is more opinionated.

[VidPower]

you totally can't beat Wombat's "I got the last one, sucka"

[SpartanSystem]

Cheapyd

[Wombat]

Bump beacuse I'm so close

[cochesecochese]

I'll reward that bump with a vote...for Cheapy.

[AleetPanda]

Not to stroke anyone's e-penis (who am I kidding) but I voted for Cheapy mainly because sometimes I want to reach through the internet and slap the shit out of wombat. Though enjoy some of the comic book talk (some).

[SeanNOLA]

I really don't think you can have one without the other. I think the CAGCast wouldn't be very good if it was just cheapy or just wombat. Their different styles combined are what makes it fun to listen to.

Come to think of it, I've never seen Wombat in the same room as Cheapy...could it be that mild mannered Wombat is actually CheapyMan's secret identity?

[Smaqaho]

Cheapy is a self-made businessman with a successful wife and a beautiful baby boy. He is a giant in his country and talks about his bowel movements without shame. He is all that is man.

Wombat is shaped like a pear.

This is a tough decision.

[Moxio]

Haha, Wombat is a pear.

[HooHaa]

Wombat is only 2 away...

[Sleepkyng]

it's damn near a dead heat!

[super_ultra]

Wow, I didn't expect the polls to be so close :lol:

[bmachine]

I enjoy Cheapy's work, but I don't think I would listen to the Cagcast every week if it was just him. If Wombat did it alone I'd still listen.

Wombat could read the obituaries and find a way to make it entertaining.

[hero101]

+1 cheapyd for his youtube videos.

[xpag406]

I enjoy Cheapy's work, but I don't think I would listen to the Cagcast every week if it was just him. If Wombat did it alone I'd still listen.

This.

[iTR x L3G3ND x]

CheapyD is nothing without Wombat.

Both of them are great hosts, but I could see Wombat as the upper hand in all of this. I am in agreement with bmachine...

[Chase]

Neat, a tie. 197 votes a person, as of now. So, who's going to disturb the peace, and cast the unbalancing vote? ;)

[rajchakrabarti]

i think its a good team.. if either quit... i don't think i would listen. I think the interaction between them makes the show so good.

[HOVA uk]

to be fair, Cheapy in the technical sense is a better host because he does all the stuff a usual host would do.. which is important if not the podcast would just fall apart..

then again without Wombat, Cheapy is just a fuk tard sounding terribly diplomatic and borring..

Damn.. should have voted for Wombat /
[i js realised this thread is like 100000 years old]

[XXXplosive1]

I voted for Cheapy, I like them both pretty even, so I used who has the cuter kid as the tie breaker. Tai wins hands down since Wombats kid looks like a sea monkey right now.

[Noedskou]

I like them both... therefore i voted for cheapy.

[1ivewire]

I voted Cheapy just because of Wombat's mood swings in recent episodes. Correct answer is both.

[Sideswiper]

CheapyD's taste in games leans towards things that don't make him think very hard, and things that don't require much skill.

I voted Wombat.

[GaryZero]

Sorry Wombat it was very close but I get more laughs from Cheapy plus he sounds like Howard.

BTW guys, been listening to you via Itunes and my iPod for nearly 6 months. Took me a while to get over here to the forums.

[neocisco]

CheapyD's velvety voice (that highly resembles vince vaughn)

If by Vince Vaughn you mean Woody Allen then OK.

[bigl523]

w00t, i broke the tie (sorry wombat)

[OffTheWall16]

i evened it out

[Okari]

As much as I like Cheapy and his stories, I've got to give it to Wombat. Wombat's more easy to relate to.

[kiddvid]

How does Wombat get even one vote.....he's terrible!!!!

[Jest]

I can't believe it is so close. I am a Wombat fan, but I never expected there to be that many of us.

[twen]

I never saw this topic until today; I promptly voted for Wombat because he's great to pick on in various games on Xbox Live. :)

[StinkyCheese]

woah! one vote apart...

lets fix that ;)

[Walt Jay]

Both are great, but I give the edge to CheapyD for hosting ability. Wombat is a great sidekick, but CheapyD keeps the show moving.

[DarkNessBear]

Wombat.

He's less of a fanboy.

Cheapyd's MS fanboyism is really showing lately.

[KingBroly]

I'm going to have to go with Wombat. Not only is he well informed for the time that he can put into the website and his blog, but provides some insight that may not have been touched if he were not involved in the industry.

[gman8505]

C'mon guys, Cheapy is the obvious choice. He puts the hours into creating the outline and editing the show to sound the way it does. Now I am also a Wombat fan but he fits perfectly in the role he has now. Cheapy D brings up the topics and provides the content and Wombat chimes in and verbally jabs every once in a while. Cheapy has the perfect voice to lead the show and is easy to listen to, could you imagine an hour and 20 minutes of Wombat constantly talking? that would get really annoying, also without Cheapy to keep the show moving imagine the off topic rants wombat would take us on. I think Wombats great but he has a role to play and we all love him in it, but he would be a fish out of water if it were flipped.

[freakyzeeky]

I voted for Wombat, because I'm the type the likes to vote for the underdog. ;)

[haloman21]

I just showed this thread to my wife.... and she voted for cheapy :(

and a free huzzah for all those who voted for me
My god your own wife voted for cheapy? Wow I'm hoping he didn't go to your house during his return to america and if he did I sure as hell hope you didn't have to take a dump.

[sdp]

I voted for cheapy since I liked him and didn't know who this "Wombat" guy was while I had previously enjoyed Cheapy's videos. Thats when I first started listening the first two or three shows, and I would have voted for Wombat if I had waited a few weeks to make a better decision. So yeah there should be one more vote for cheapy and one less for wombat.

I'm glad the poll is pretty much even though, as its both of them who make the Cagcast, if you replaced either the show would not be the same at all and would probably lose interest.

[stuart]

I Like wombat

[TiE23]

I believe that Cheapy and Wombat both have their awesomeness. They're both awesome and compliment each other perfectly. But if I had to pick, it'd be Cheapy. But by division of awesomeness, it's 50.5% Cheapy, 49.5% Wombat.

[MorPhiend]

I've never listened, and don't plan to. But I made a random vote. I'm sure I'm the first person who has done so, too.:roll:
