Seems to be only 50 seconds of the show. Cheapy.

Give it another try, please.

my bad..

Looks like a good show..

*listens*

WTF... make up your mind on which day to record already. You're like a TV network who keeps moving a great show until nobody knows when it's on.

On the Wii selling more than the PS3 6 to 1 in Japan, you forgot to mention that it means publishers can reach a much bigger customer base.

Awesome!

Thanks CheapyD and Wombat

I was not a fan of Transformers back in the day, but I liked the film. I guess Shipwreck was a big fan of Transformers back in the day.

About time, I'll listen to it on my way to work.

Voted for nomination in Best Production, Best Podcast, & Gaming. Love the CAGcast and have been listing since the first one.

So far, this has been a Great episode. I am about half way through

I really enjoyed your E3 Preview, it is good to hear that you will be seeing a lot of the big Fall releases.

There have been so many great quotes in this episode such as "Shit Piece" and "Tasted like Burning"

on Wombat's Super Paper Mario situation:
you don't actually have to fight all 100 warriors to progress the storyline after you fight about 20 or so somthing happens that causes you to leave that world. after the main game is over you can go back and defeat all 100 warriors as a side quest

And to Wombat on the "O word": There is nothing wrong with talking about Oblivion. It is a game that you happen to enjoy very much and you should be able to talk about it as much you want.

Great show again Cheapy and Wombat!

Ship, that Transformers movie review was right on the money, lol !

There were 4 parts that in the film that infuriated me

1) In the beginning, that spanglish speaking latino stereotype, who was such a brickhead he had to be reminded that it was "english only".
2) The scene were Shia Lebeouf spends 20 minutes looking in his room for some freakin glasses.... "ebay item #234412-1211... blah blah blah..."
3) The part where the chick says to bumble bee "You shoot, I'll drive" followed by a weird sudden change in music from apocalyptic "the world is gonna end" style to upbeat hoo-rah heavy rock music. terrible transition / editing.
4) And of course the little sprinkle here and there of modern propaganda, "Sir, there's no way that signal could've been from Iranian hackers"

P.S., Did anyone see that trailer before the movie? Untitled JJ Abrams Project. It was like somekind of going-away party in NYC, when suddenly there was a huge explosion. There was some crazy roaring, and fireballs flying eveywhere. on the IMDB forums, some compared the sound to the smoke monster on LOST, but my first reaction was.... Emergence Day.

Great show so far guys

As for Suda 51.

His name is Goichi Suda, and as I'm sure you know Cheapy, Go-Ichi is Japanese for 5-1, so its contrived from that.

haha
I thought it was ironic that immediately after the "which has the better online service - Sony/Microsoft debate" SuperStarDust was brought up and Cheapy had to email his high score to Wombat. haha

Dude, did it really need to be like 2 hours long? Sweet jesus!

So Cheapy, when's your album coming out?

No kidding, I'd love to hear a CheapyD-remastered version of the Grease soundtrack! Also, as a bonus track, please throw in your version of that song you played as a joke for my song. I laughed both of my balls clean off.

I respect Shipwreck's opinion, but I feel that he was wayyyy to harsh on Transformers. Granted I'm nowhere a huge fan like he is.......but it was a freaking great movie even with all of the plugs and everything. Prime saying the ebay line was a bit cheesy but they are "robots" ya know and they would prob know about the "in" websites. Other then that great show, and Cheapy can you visit the THQ booth for me and tell me about the WWE Smackdown 2008 booth? Usually they have a hot diva there to be eye candy so even if you hate wrestling games you can always go for T&A :p

great show cheapy/wombat. and congrats to ender on the contest win.

if there was a cheapy album, i'd buy it. but only if it came with a wombat b-side.i don't know what all this "wombat hater" stuff is about. did you listen to his "breakfast at tiffany's" or just hear it? he sings like an angel.

I like football.

Also I thought mtxpower had a point about sony removing parts from the PS3. Sure the cost of production has come down but that is true for all the systems (probably most for the 360 which hasn't had a price drop yet). With how the system is selling now they probably need to drop the price by $100 to try and catch up(especially if the 360 has a price drop). That would require removing parts and other cost cutting moves.

30 minutes before getting to any gaming news!? GOTDAMN! I love the CAGCast more than life itself, but hells bells guys... I need a longer commute to keep up!

Just saw Transformers... I'm not a 'fan' of them, though I did grow up with the show. From a non-fan, it was alright, but I can see how fans would feel shortchanged. Ship is right on with the product-placement complaint, and the action scenes are a blur of gears and metal, but its got some good gags and enough explosions to keep you awake... not great, but worth a look if you want a big popcorn film.

What's with you guys n the cagcast and making me burst out laughing in public all the time! lol. I just listened to the part with the "Shit Piece" transformers mention. Now I got my co-workers looking at me weird lol. I must say tho when I see iTunes downloading the Cagcast I actually am filled with great anticipation!
I think u guys tho shoudl call that blonde chick "Busty McBusterson".
