Man, sad to hear about Goozex! I'm trying to cash out, but there are little to no games available. Seems like everyone is going crazy trying to get out while they can.

The only thing worse than Drive fanatics.... Drive fanatics who think everyone should watch Drive. I thought Drive was a fine movie, not great but good. Gets a bit annoying when people who probably watch 10 new movies a year watch Drive and then act like it's the second coming (not a comment specifically aimed at Cheapy). If you love Drive, then good for you. Don't shove it down people's throats.

I enjoyed Drive, but was hoping for more driving. This is not recommended for car fans, but for fans of movies that have extremely long pauses between lines of dialog.

I'm glad I watched it, but I would never recommend it to anyone. But, if Shipwreck and Wombat actually watch it, then Cheapy can forever call them his "bitches."

Interesting about the Goozex sale, we shall see what happens with the site

It's not for everyone, but I agree with Cheapy about Drive, as explained in approximately 1,500 words: http://www.dvdverdict.com/reviews/drive.php

hey cheapy, you think you can beat suda 51's ass?

I wonder what he thinks about your trash talkin

Dragon age origins had a fantastic ending. Besides, providing resolution to a story isn't exactly rocket science.

Still no winner for the Naruto game ???

If a big part of the developer's shtick (IE. a big selling point) is your product is an epic story spanning 3 games and at the end of that journey they royally it up with a supposedly epic facepalm of an ending, then consumers are well within their rights to harshly review the product. As one has not only been on the hook for just one game with a crappy ending, but 3 games and possibly several $10 DLCs as well, not to mention other tie-ins like the novels (hundreds of dollars worth total), all building to a moment of disappointment.

If the 3 games had the same gameplay, but instead had mostly stand-alone stories like the Uncharted series, I don't imagine there would have been nearly as big a backslash. Each game would of been judged on its own merit as opposed to one game sold in 3 parts being judged as a whole.

CheapyD, for a hip guy, you sure are ignorant of the awesomeness of "Hello."

Ditto on that duder.

And Cheapy's is just Trolling so hard on Suda.

While I was annoyed at the (albeit ironic) inclusion on more Techno Music before the show. I find Cheapy's quick and sudden trolling on Suda as ing hysterical. Cheapy finally has an evil rival.

Womat wins this episode for his usually duty of keeping Cheapy down to earth, and also alerting me to Infinity Blade finally dropping to .99

Ok Cheapy.
We get it.
Jersey Shore + Shit = Funny.

All in All Cheapy, I think you should make some CAG goals...

1. Buy some other online company (To excert your power as a C-list Internet Celebrity)
2. Get Shipwreck on Metacritic (Meaning more reviews)
3. Make Wombat get off his ass and pick some music, because I can't handle anymore techno.

I never said I thought Drive was good

Awesome, so we're trying to get each other to experience things we might not like. I like this challenge.

Funny episode. Ship's comment about not having to lie down on the floor when he defecates was hilarious. I'm weirded out by the high South Park scores, too. Sure, there are some polarizing games out there, like Heavy Rain, and Metroid: Other M, but for a South Park game to be rated that high on OXM and EGM?

Anyway, even though I don't have Mass Effect 3, I'm looking forward to more of the ending discussion.

By the way, Shipwreck, on an earlier episode you said you were enjoying Tales of Graces f. Are you still playing the game?

Fine. Then I DISagree with Cheapy: DRIVE is good.

Video games, what?

Exactly.

I have 7600 points right now and not sure whether or not I should cash out or hold out for a possible announcement. Taking a look at the forums, it looks like I should just get what I can now and hope for the best.

I think the difficult part about writing an ending to a video game is that the audience is not as immersed as a TV show or movie. Video games can sometimes take multiple play sessions in order to finish, as opposed to something like a movie which is usually a one-sitting affair. I've never felt a strong connection to a game's story because the immersion is often broken up between days, sometimes even weeks or months. Therefore I never have much stake in a game's ending. I just like the satisfaction of completing the game.

Babies crying is the worst.
