I'm guessing I speak for a lot of listeners when I say I don't tune in to get the new releases and a quick video game news recap. The shortened show mostly left the parts of the CAGcast I can get from any website or podcast and sacrificed a lot of the banter and sidetracked conversations that make it unique and entertaining. Keep the run time long enough to sound like you're having full length casual conversations, and not compressed to where it sounds like you need to hurry on to the next segment.

Didn't mind the short episode, but please make future episodes at least 5 inches long (replace wombat if necessary).

Nice quick show guys. I personally prefer the 90-minute version though. You seemed too rushed which is probably because you were. Keep the extra fluff in the show.

Cheapy, I'm going old school with my answer for your guess the game contest. Is it Haunted House?

Although everyone should know "4 inches is fine", 5 sounds good enough.
...I see what you did there.

Good show. I like the short shows especially during busy weeks.

Anyways, I think the NGP "PS3 on the go." is kinda stupid. Especially transferring saves from the PS3 to NGP - your saying we would be buying the game twice to transfer a experience from a console over to the handheld? Either way, the whole thing that bothered me with the PSP was a lot of the games (till recently) were watered down portable games similar to their console versions. I like how in recent years the PSP had some unique game and had lots of JRPGs.

I agree short show was not as good. I like to listen to the podcast in the car that way it takes all week to finish it. I was done today. By the way I've never heard of Wizard of Wor but I bet they reuse a lot of those sounds because it sounds an awful lot like galaga.

OK I have to actually put my 2 cents worth in on the whole Penny Arcade "thing".

It was abviously meant to be a look into the obsurdity of some people being so focused on the "task at hand" other than to help someone out of one of the most horrific situations possible.

I took it as the slave's situation as gravley serious and the "hero's" situation as obsurd and self absorbed. The funny part is that the hero is too self involved to help someone in real need. (but lets face it, it is just a game and not real people)

But, like many things in life, it is up to you interpritation.
I cannot fault people for having an opinion, but I can help them look at the big picture instead of only 1 small part of something.

I will stop now, because I could go on with this for a long time.

That was Ghostbusters from the Sega master system

LOnger show or shorter show? I just want a good show.

If it takes you longer or shorter to make one doesn't matter. On my Ipod I can skip ahead. Maybe I'm the only one that has one of those kinds of ipods.

Dick wolves? My only memory is the name sounded kind of in poor taste. Penny Arcade has been running a somewhat fine line of donating games to sick kids and then doing sht like selling Dick Wolves t-shirts on the side. What's next the Porn industry doing charity events for grade schools? Ok i wish porn industry was fund raising for my 5th grade playground back in the day.

NGP? Should have made it larger. 5 inches ain't enough. Big ten inch is what I'm talking about.

Much like no one takes their SUV off-road I doubt many take their PSP off-road either. AT least in America. And so make the hunk of plastic tablet-sized. 10".

Guess what? All that graphical power? You can now see what it is capable of. YOu can see the details. A baseball is bigger than a mosquito. You don't have to squint like Sanford's chef. The thing is a much better movie device with that big of screen as well. Matter of fact, a 10" screen from 12" away rivals a big screen tv from 10' away in terms of relative size. And you much have less competition at this size. There is no dedicated gaming device this size. And the tablet market is just getting started and so is less entrenched than the ipod. iPHone, Android and 3DS. Win, win, win....

Create a new market Sony. I bet you could take away console sales with a device like this.

ON top of it this thing would be a great surfing machine. Great map display with that gps. GReat device for Sony's target PSP demographic which was 13-17 yr olds who don't have a TV in their room.


btw, I think Sony knows the NGP might have trouble getting software support. That's why there is that Android PSN SDK. They want folks to develop games for this thing first and then be able qualm their fears (developer/publisher fears) by making it easy to port games to Android. Or even vice versa. They also have that Android PSP phone of course.

Just my $1.725.

Forget it!

Arggg, too late, I knew it was Wizards of Wor!!! I loved that game!

My first time tuning in and you guys do a great job, keep up the good work and don't worry about length, it's all about what you do with what you little you have (talking about time of course!)

Also, HILARIOUS comment about nobody in real life being raped by dick wolves, unless you were raped by Law and Order creator Dick Wolf. I don't know why, but that shit has me rolling!!!

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! Wombat, stop with the over-enunciated proclamations. You come off as a condescending douche. Want an example? Go to the 40:37 mark of this week's show.

I own a PSP Go and that was $250, I don't know if I'll be happy or mad if the NGP is that price.

Also, I'm a huge Lumines fan, but as a Go owner I cannot get this game. It's not offered on the Sony Store and I agree this is one of the must play titles on the PSP but apparently Sony doesn't seem to think so.

I bought Lumines because of all the hype and didn't enjoy it at all. Having to start from the beginning every time (even in Vs. mode) isn't my idea of fun.

I believe the original PSP actually came with a 32 MB Memory Stick PRO Duo. I used that to save PSP games on for a couple of years until I got a 512 MB stick for about $60.

I'd say longer shows are better.

Also...from now on can we have contests that aren't first come/first serve? Since you guys put out your podcast so late most people won't ever even get a chance to win.

I gotta get a link on this 'Raptor' tracking service you guys keep talking about..google gives me nothing unless its some weird spelling that I don't know..unless this website is only for the gaming elite (?)
