He was just being a dick, I laugh at everyone who went up in arms about this.

Its a joke people.

Jesus lighten up.

Everyone who says "She" about Hilary makes me laugh a lot.

I rather enjoy his personality on the podcasts.

I still think Cheapy should go on. Publicity ++

Immature? I don't recall IGN having a ten minute segment about how they almost shit their pants once. Though I'm not saying that's a bad thing. Both shows are immature, and it's awesome. I'd clip the actual part where they mentioned CAG, but I'm about to fall asleep as I type this. When they "called out" Cheapy D they weren't serious. Learn to take some jokes, sirs.

Oh, and Cheapy needs to take them up on their offer. That'd be great.

Up until this was posted, I had no idea who Hilary was or that IGN even had a 360 podcast.


Gotta agree with Cheapy on the latest episode as well, must have been a bitch growing up with a girl's name.

Ah man, where to begin. I wonder how many of the people who complained about IGN not bothering to listen to Cheapy bothered to listen to an episode of Three Red Lights? Listen to just one and you'll see that Hilary was just joking around to be an ass. They don't take themselves seriously and never have. As someone else pointed out at the end of each show they apologise to there listeners for making another terrible podcast. All the people jumping up and down about this need to relax, don't take them seriously because they don't even take themselves seriously. Even the PA rant done by Hilary (as Rob the Robot) was just him being a douche to be funny, so chill.

And the guy who said "Who's CheapyD?" wasn't Hilary, it was Nate Ahearn, the most annoying guy on any podcast anywhere.

I... hmm.

Look, obviously you can only go by what you know. So perception can always be clouded by ignorance. For example, my perception is...

I, of course, know of IGN but... until Cheapy mentioned it, I never even heard of that podcast. Even right now, looking through iTunes (which is not comprehensive and definitive) you have to dig under IGN to find "Three Red Lights".

And this may be incorrect but... with 24 episodes, asides from the "IGN" tag... who are they? Do they even have a larger audience than the CAGcast?

When Tai was born, it was news on the big gaming blogs (according to Alexa). Frankly Cheapy posts a video, it's news. I've neither seen nor heard, that I'm aware of, anything those guys doing making the blogs.

If I had to guess - they seem to have a fascinating blend of jealousy and hubris. They talk down on the CAGcast and Cheapy but both him and his show seem to be more popular.

Originally Posted by CheapyD No, thats what the person who submitted the question wrote. I believe the word I used was "disagreed". Anyway, more fodder for this week's show...I love it!

My guess is thats what they want... more listeners from Cag to listen to their cast.

This is deliberate you guys. These are the same guys who had some guy do a wierd voice tha was "rob" from the nes days. There just having fun and trying to get a rise out of crazy people who take this stuff to seriously.

I'm pretty sure they don't care about an audience for their podcast. It's merely an addendum to their coverage on the site rather than a featured item weekly. It's actually becoming quite laughable that some are turning this into a popularity contest of who has a bigger audience to a podcast. On the flip side, I would guess IGN and the 360 channel has a bigger audience than CAG.

This is the truth. I don't think any of this warrants a second thought. Why the hell are people getting so upset about this.

If anything we should be happy, this is really great pub for CAG. Cheapy would be awesome on an IGN podcast, or Hilary would be an awesome guest on the cagcast. C'mon people, wise up, this isn't a big deal.

Seems a valid metric for comparison considering - joking, sure... but, they were kinda disparaging about Cheapy.

IGN as a whole, sure, but again - this is my opinion, my perception... but for these guys on the podcast... They personally are nobodys. Cheapy may be B list internet celebrity but he's at least someone.

All of this is probably pointless circle talking since they very likely were joking.

While I agree Hilary was just kidding during that section but he such an @$$hole I can't stand that guy. In fact that whole IGN cast is a bunch of idiots, they think they are really funny but really are just a bunch of blabering fools.

Don't get me wrong Cheapy has his a-hole moments as well, but at least he is upfront about his views (and doesn't yell into the mic!). He calls it like he see's it.

You would think that the word sarcasm is not known to most members here. I've never listened to an ign podcast before or know who this hilary guy is and I could tell it was a joke. Even a moderator came on here saying that this guy was a huge douche and that cheapy shouldn't even pay attention to it. Simmer down a little guys.

I agree 100%. The whole thing is just silly.

Wow......immature and degrading.
What a bunch of ing wankers.
