David, didn't one of your YouTube videos make it to the front of the Wall Street Journal a year or two ago? You'd think they wouldn't do something so dumb, but i've had my share of stupid overzealous legal internet shit.

Yup:

My Xbox 360 just showed up at my door.

Total repair window:
Called Microsoft Japan on Saturday, 360 picked up at my apartment on Tuesday 2pm, returned Saturday 8:30AM

Got a free month of XBL too.

I agree with your assessment of the worthlessness of Limited Edition video games. I do enjoy some making-of videos, but not for ten extra bucks. They should just include them on the game discs, like a lot of games do. They work best as a "prize" to unlock. Besides, often they are videos made as promotional material anyway. The one limited edition game I have is Jade Empire (which was same price as regular version) which came with an extra character and making-of videos that were made for G4TV. Perhaps a trade-off could be they could include the up-coming downloadable content on the bonus disc. That way, they could get the new content first or perhaps even cheaper.

I'm a bit confused about the YouTube thing. Cheapy, I thought you only posted videos you made yourself. I've seen those and they're all great. Why were you reposting videos other people made? You don't get paid for views, do you?

Okay I'm moving to Japan. Or Canada. How's health care over there?

In the name of whatever you hold Holy, I plead to you - *please* don't ever, EVER play that godawful 'CAGS on News' version of 'Girls on Film' again. It doesn't even have the distinction of being so bad that it's entertaining. It's just plain awful and annoying. :(

I actually find that part pretty funny. In my opinion it is so bad it's good.

Too bad about the youtube account Cheapy. Who knew that Atari is so anal about their 20 year old commercials? I really don't see what's wrong with playing Heavenly Sword or other "older" games. It's a good game and it's not THAT old. I think it's ok to do that for games that are not on the top of your list. You can also buy that game cheaper if you wait long enough for deals on those kind of games.

Over react much?

The worse thing about this is that it isn't Atari asking for a suspension, it's some no name fansite.

I do have theory on this though, Cheapy. This is all an elaborate scheme by Phil Harrison to ensure he's the only tall, bald, white guy in the video game industry. However, the root of his evil lies in his dastardly British ways!

The highlite of my day...

atarigames.com.... so yeah...

At the beginning of the podcast when Cheapy says he received a letter from YouTube, my initial thought was that YouTube was investigating allegations of child abuse due to his "360 made my baby cry" video.

Glad to hear it's something else.

Something about this episode locks up my POS zune everytime.

Yeah that kid got a bunch of stuff from Bungie. Lucky kid., Nice job by Bungie.

Bungie really pulled through. I like how they signed the helmet this time though. The kid better not be sending that anywhere.

Hey Cheapy and Wombat great show, I thought it might be an awkard show since you (Cheapy) was so pissed off but bye the middle of the show I think Wombat halped you forget about all of your troubles and came out with a great show. Cheapy you need to make a rap song with just the lyrics "I Bought The Last One Yesterday SUCKA!". Keep up the good work the cagcast keeps on getting better, I love going to work Friday morning because I know when I get there I can download the cagcast and enjoy.
