Holy crap a cagcast has come!

It's not showing up in iTunes for me. How long does it usually take to become visible there?

That's a Sunday evening surprise.

Already off to a great start with Cheapy's Ziploc bag lulz...

I can't believe Shipwreck forgot that the protagonist in Prototype 2 is not the same as in the original Prototype. Do some research next time.

Oh, Ship, we love you.

Thank you Gaming Moses. I saw Drive since you mentioned it and really enjoyed it.

Wombat - You do have the option in Trials: Evolution to have it where you bail out and it still counts as a finish. You have to turn it on though.

Preemptive strike! You win this time.

I don't get why Wombat tried to downplay Trials Evolution's success by comparing it to Mass Effect 3. XBLA games deal in smaller terms for records and success because they're made on a much smaller scale than top-tier retail games. People used the leaderboards to figure out that Trials sold about 100k on day one and it's at 435k right now, which is really good. In comparison, Fez has sold about 75k since its launch the Friday before Trials Evolution came out.

Venture Beat has some figures on the top XBLA games, which has Castle Crashers at #1 with 2.6 million copies sold and Trials HD is second at 1.8 million. That means Trials Evolution has already reached about 25% of what Trials HD sold and about 17% of the top-selling game in less than two weeks, so it's well on its way to becoming the best-selling XBLA game of all-time.

Splash was a ing awesome film.

After beating Splatterhouse, I tried Bloodforge and they both seemed very very similar and they are the same price now: http://www.amazon.com/Splatterhouse-...sr=1-1-catcorr

Both are ok imo also.

They are similar. Bloodforge doesn't have those awful platforming sections though.

Boy, Cheapy was serious about the Cagcast being late this week, huh?

Looking forward to listening, thanks.

I wound up buying Bloodforge. Enjoying it so far.

CheapyD brought it up, but I was curious too if all three of the CAG hosts would be going to E3 this year.

Am I the only person who went back and played through Mass Effect 2 to fix any of the mistakes they made going into Mass Effect 3?

I liked how the CAG cast hosts slagged Prototype 2, like a lot of the mainstream gaming press are. I think most people did not expect that game to get a sequel.

I'm also a big Keven Pereira fan, although I don't really watch AOTS anymore.

Is this the track Shipwreck was stuck on?

How do you like that camera? I saw the Giantbomb Quicklook and it was really messing me up. I also don't get motion sick ever.
