I may be wrong but i thought i remember Cheapy saying that he had watched Raid: The Redemption. If so, did you notice how similar the story-lines were?

Now that we basically know the new owners of most of the THQ titles, what are the odds that Vigil will make it through the purge, and that we will see anymore Darksiders in the future? Seems like Saints Row is safe, and at one point it was reported that Vigil was taken up by 2K, but that was later denied...

hey, i was really surprised not to hear you guys talk of this already so, what do you think of the upcoming Free-to-Play, Marvel Heroes , game on pc. From the Diablo style gameplay and the available pre-purchase "Founders Pack" with the single char $20, to the holy shit its $200 Ultimate. What are your views on this, and do you think it will go gangbusters with bringing together the non-age pacific Marvel universe into a Diablo format of gameplay, or will it fizzle out like D3 and DC Universe?

Cheapy

I am very curious about your thoughts on all of this.

What snacks or foods are you looking forward to this year? Will it be a burger wrapper that you can eat?

I just watched Jiro Dreams of Sushi based on your recommendation from a while ago. I really, really enjoyed it. Do you have any other suggestions for documentaries that are on Netflix--preferably ones that aren't depressing!

Any portable game recommendations? I've played the heck out of Plumber Crack, and it seems there's a must play game for the Vita according to Kotaku, where you flick the panties off some chick.

I am listening to old Cagcasts and way back on episode 60-something, Wombat had just gotten a new job, which led him to speak about what some non-gaming industries do to ensure customer retention from product release to product release. This generation of consoles had just come out at the time and he concluded that the gaming industry places very little to no effort on customer retention. As we are approaching the next console generation, do any of you feel that this has changed in any way at all since his original conclusion? Other thoughts on this?

Just read in another thread about a fellow CAG who is okaying with the idea to buy a gun | self-protection.

What is your stance on that?
Do any of you own guns?
I'm imagining that things are different in Japan?


Cheers

Hey there another one!

So I've been listening to old episodes lately (150 currently).
Back then you Cheapy talked a lot about Cag 2.0 and how SPJ did a great job on it and how this man (or is he ?) is working his butt off.

Maybe there is a later episode where SPJ is on the show, and all these questions are answered, however I would like to know:

What training did SPJ have?
How does he keep up with current trends in Web Development?
What do I've to do to become as god-like?

The new Tomb Raider limited edition controller is described as:

inspired by Lara’s iconic climbing axe and bandages

Did you know she had an iconic climbing axe?

I heard Major Nelson say this in a video describing the controller and did a triple take. I can't speak for anyone else, but a climbing axe is not what comes to mind when I think of the Lara Croft or the Tomb Raider series.

Yes or no guys, is a new Colecovision console ready to make a comeback against the likes of Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo in today's gaming market?

Did cheapy send a donation to Uta Kohaku? Is he a fan of hers?

I realize you guys gave really lost interest in Grand Theft Auto, but is the push back to September significant? As in, do you believe they needed more time for it to cook, or agree they shooting for closer to the next-gen launch, if it is coming this fall? (Personally, I'm not sure we will see them this fall on shelves; I'm leaning more towards 2014)

Recently on the CAGcast you guys have talked about the next gen console systems with PS4 and Xbox 720. Some people, maybe you guys too, have said they think the next gen is coming too soon. And that we aren't ready for it, with all these big name titles coming out on PS3/Xbox 360.

Well I feel the next gen is coming out too late. They shouldn't have done a 7+ year cycle that had 3-5 games of a single series, on one current gen system. They should have brought the next gen systems out a year ago or more with Halo 4, Uncharted 3, Assassin's Creed 3, Far Cry 3, Call of Duty Black Ops 2, Forza 4, Gears of War 3, etc.

Because now almost every series feels like "more of the same" and a little stagnant. I have zero interest in investing in a brand new console to play "the new version" of older games. I realize new IPs make it hard to sell consoles, which is why I think the next gen console systems should have came out a while back, before we had sequel fatigue.

What do you guys think?

You guys play a lot of games with your wives. Have you ever gotten a hand jibber or a blowy while playing?

Who thought it was Bane invading the Super Bowl aha

Some say the next PlayStation or Xbox is coming too soon or too late, but one has to wonder what new features they can offer gamers that the systems they have now can't offer? Online gaming and dlc can always be made better with some software updates. On the hardware side, the only thing these systems have going for it is just better graphics, especially when they don't want to subscribe to the gimmicks that Nintendo has (which some feel as inferior.) With mobile gaming getting better and better, especially with Apple products' tech capabilities, do you guys think the next generation is really worth draining our wallets?

Hey CAG cast, I was just wondering; What games do you still go back to today that you've been playing for a very long time. Not exactly which you play most, but for example I've been playing a skirmish or two quite often ever since the release of Halo Wars and I still actively play Skyrim, and have since 2011.

Thanks!

Yo. I was wondering which company each of you think has the best momentum going into this next generation and why?

I feel like Sony has some good momentum going in. Just because they are still working on AAA games like the Last of Us and GOW:A.
