Iphone, 3DS, Vita. I realize there are 2 types of people, the ones who want simple quick distractions to play on their phones and the ones that want full console type experiences on their handhelds. So I don't get upset when someone complains about either.

I personally have more time to play handhelds these days than I do my consoles so a game like Uncharted (Vita) or Resident Evil: Revelations (3DS) is something I want to play and a welcome change.

Cheapy, I think the hate stems from 2 things when it comes to handhelds. You prefer the iphone experience so you feel the need to mention it every time anything is said about the VITA and the 3DS and the quick dismissal of games on those platforms (let's say Uncharted for Vita). Uncharted Vita may not be "as good" as the console versions but to me it's pretty damn good comparatively. Not to mention RE: Revelations is a better game than Resident Evil 5 was. I understand you like the big screen better but there is some really great stuff out there for handhelds and it shouldn't be glossed over.

As always thanks for another great CAGcast.

I'm listening to the CAGcast now and enjoying it so far. About the use of the word "incredible", it seems to me that Cheapy was trying to make a point about the misapplication of the word especially in the case of the 3Dsxl. Wombat, I believe that Cheapy is correct on this one. Look at the way the word "Amazing" has been overused in the last several years - it's this era's version of "Awesome".
Keep up the interesting podcasts, guys.

I also enjoy watching Jiro Dreams of Sushi, it was really interesting. But it seem a little bit too pricey for me.

I look forward to Wombat explaining to Cheapy next week why his Hawaii comments were so funny. It will be hilarious and awkward.
Also, it was funny when Cheapy and Wombat were arguing and they threw Shipwreck in the middle to settle it.

The pause after Cheapy asked him whether the graphics on the 3DS were "incredible" seemed to go on forever.

Cheapy should have ended the show with the theme from this 80s classic.

I love how Cheapy said he wasn't comparing the iPhone to the 3DS, and then immediately goes on to compare the two things to make his point before Wombat stopped him. We get it. You don't like the Vita/3DS. Enough already. The horse is dead. You don't need to keep beating him.

I like the PS Vita.I think it's an incredible device.

Give me an actual Foosball table. With ping-pong balls

Hawaii? All the listeners are made cause you are not giving your parents a break! Meet in Ronkonkoma it is closer to your parents! Give them a break, they are getting old!

Sick bro!

It was hilarious when wombat was clowning on Cheapy D for him getting tired of going to Hawaii. Did Shipwreck get why Wombat was clowning him cause Cheapy was obviously clueless to it.

Also the clip at the end of the show with Cheapy D on the other podcast was great.

RICH ASS GAMER

rename yer website bro! RAG!

Good show. Death Rally for Steam please

I think the lower quality in summer of arcade is due to Microsoft making tons of other promotions like Game Feast have spread their blockbusters thin. Now with Sony competing they maybe just be trying to find a sweeter spot to sell games.

I want to try death rally.

People are accusing Cheapy of not paying taxes for 10 years

Just my $0.02 here... the Iphone was an incredible device. Now it's pretty much standard. Behind the times, even. Compared to other phones, it is now playing catch-up. And I say this as someone who loves his iphone. The 3DS and the XL are incredible devices. 3D without glasses? That's pretty damned incredible in my book, and not many other devices have that capability (Evo 3D, I think). Of course it needs a stronger library, but we're just talking about the device, not the software.

That genuinely made me laugh.

Just wanted to say I watched "Jiro Dreams of Sushi" at a food festival here in Norway. Loved it.

The movie was presented by the best sushi restaurant in the country, who served up a sushi buffet before and after the screening.
The movie was very entertaining and a visual feast. The old man's philosophies are really inspiring. I'm extremely jealous you get to eat at his restaurant in Tokyo.


Here's a picture of some of the buffet.




Great podcast as always!

Yeah, I think you just proved my point exactly.
1) I was not angry. Wombat is the one who got angry, swearing several times.
2) The whole basis for the discussion is me trying to get Wombat to explain what makes the 3DS XL "incredible".

I'm a bit baffled on Shipwreck saying he liked the first Kingdom Hearts, but that the sequel's camera gave him a headache or whatever. I recall the camera being worse in the first game. And I don't remember the load times being terrible in any of them, so I was surprised by Wombat's complaint.
