A CAGcast just in time for Christmas. God bless us everyone! I am listening now

Great CAGcast so far, still listening

mmm long. Tired now. sleep............................................. .................................

At least you didn't fall asleep during the show...always a good sign when listening at 6:30AM!

Cheapy, just a thought - If you are going to tell wombat that his work isn’t up to standard, fine, but you should do so off air. It doesn’t seem right to criticize him in front of a “live” audience.

Wow. Lots of cattiness in this one. Entertaining - very much so. Professional - probably not.

Other than that, great show.

Just downloaded it to my iPod, but instead of listening while I'm at work as I normally do, I'll probably listen later. I think I picked up that nasty stomach bug that the mice left for the Wombat household, so I'm going to jet home early from work. That way, I can enjoy the CAGcast while I'm curled up on the couch at home.

Nice show , I can't wait to see the new Cag look in 2007.

Just thought I'd point out that degeneration is actually a word...

See http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/degeneration


Oh and congrats Cheapy for not burping during the show!

I'll listen to this at school today.

I'll listen , on my way and , at work .
I might end up listening twice , because I get alot of "interruptions" .

Merry Christmas , Cheapy & Wombat .

Can't wait for my Super Cheapy D Fun Pack..keep adding more stuff to it....just wonder when we'll be getting it. Also Wombat where is this deal for Samurai Warriors 2 for $9.99???, I look online and called B&M it's nowhere to be found.

It appears teknomusik has already come to my defense about degeneration, so I will bypass that. However, congrats to Wombat for coming up with 'Truthiness' and holding off the Wii puns as well. I'd agree with having multiple controllers rather than multiple consoles, but then you're forcing developers to choose one or the other, and it would add extra confusion for consumers I think.
I love the idea of expanding CAG to include more editorials, but hate the idea that was presented, video game shopping editorials. Maybe it will make more sense once people start suggesting ideas for what that could mean, but the idea to me sounds terrible. Is it supposed to be about an adventure of someone traveling to EB to buy a new game each week, or how someone got an especially good deal somewhere, or...? I don't know, sounds crazy.
In any case, good job as usual, especially to Cheapy, who apparently does all the work when creating the show. Then again Cheapy, I didn't hear you suggest anything for Wombat to have prepared for the next show, so you're not really encouraging participation for him either.

Edited due to length, it was a damn long post...

the email said Samarai Warrioirs 2 9.99 then in small print ..... off, so its 30 bucks, I can't read, sorry

Tagged, and Happy Holidays to Cheapy, Wombat, and CAGs everywhere!

Just finished the show. Excellent again.

As for Wombat's "What did the Wii do right?" question, I think that the cost and the "newness" of the controller may not be able to be duplicated in a future console. Gamers have never seen anything like the Wii controller before, so unless they can come up with something that advances/improves upon it, they will be just playing catchup.

Hopefully this is a good 8 years away, though...

Hey Wombat I also watched Slither yesterday. It was a blind buy from Blockbuster and I did enjoy it. Seeing Nathan Fillion again was great.

I think it's funny how seriously some take the bickering. Breaking balls is part of every (hetero) male relationship and is a funny element of the CAGCast.

Listening to the show right now! Great so far. Wow 10,000 for Child's Play!! Great Job Cheapy D, Wombat and CAGers.
