I'm enjoying the podcast... right now! So far so good. 20 minutes in and I don't completely disagree with some nonsense! Just playing, I always agree with you guys.

Also can I win the Hybrid code?

Seriously bro, invite me to your planet! RAG FOREVER!

If you guys want to get into DayZ before the standalone (who knows when it will be out) they made it really easy, its not like installing a normal mod. They have a custom launcher just for the mod and it can be steam integrated.

I down for a Hybrid code too, thanks for the contest.

I think you should just drop the show feedback section. Seems like the last four or five episodes open with Cheapy having to justify being himself to fanboys. As he points out this week: Haters gonna hate. So lets stop giving them the time of day. If they are truly that upset about something said on the show, then they probably won’t listen to the next episode anyway. That leaves the rest of us, who don’t care, to listen to a drawn out and unnecessary justification. Why should we get punished? Either drop the feedback, or at least stop responding to these incessant whiners.

Also: Sign me up for some Hybrid action.

Slender is available for Mac!

I think a LOT of people stopped playing Diablo 3. It becomes too dependent on the auction house when you have to improve your gear. Almost everyone that still plays is just milking the AH. It's most fun at Nightmare difficulty but it sounds like you guys haven't even made it that far. =P I can see it on console but Blizzard makes so much profit with the AH that they don't have to. I don't see people coming back to it until an expansion or some type of overhaul. Even PvP can't save it (already expecting it to be unbalanced).

You'd figure bickle would get first dibs on any prizes seeing as how they do the essentially** thank-less job of making shows notes for every CAGcast


**yes I realize they have been thanked a few times prior

I don't recall caring about the requirements.

alright then. Thanks for the heads up.

Judging by you guys practically ignoring Hybrid (and what little you did talk about just had a meh reaction) it seems that there is little praise for this Summer of Arcade. I don't agree that the Microsoft exclusivity is the problem -- just look at the promotion they ran about a month earlier. All Microsoft exclusives, including Trails Evolution & Minecraft -- both would have been GREAT games for the Summer of Arcade!

Either way, next week I'd like for you to expand on why you think Summer of Arcade is failing. You hinted that it could be exclusivity, but I think its more than that. I think it is Microsoft being arrogant & thinking they can throw anything in the promotion & it will sell gangbusters!

Either way, throw me in the Hybrid random drawing! I enjoyed the demo & beta.

MGS4 (an old game as it's put) is still valid to get trophies because it's a clear Win-Win for the Playstation community. It's a benefit to those of us that do care about gamerscore/trophy level or people that just are looking for a reason to play one of the best games of all time, and even to those like Shipwreck who (god forbid) haven't touched MGS4.

Great show.

I'd be interested in the code for Hybrid, too.

Great show guys. Liked the decription of the right winger protestors by your ouse Cheapy. Wierd that there hasn't been a Hybrid review yet on any of the major sites yet.

Not crazy, they sent out review codes the day before launch, then the game was pulled. Many reviewers are probably playing it for the first time today.

It'd probably be stranger if there were any. Codes didn't go out until the night before release and server issues took the game down on release day. There hasn't been enough time to give the game a fair shake and write a review.

Thanks for using my question on Cheapy's obscure highbrow snobby movie pick of the week. I have no idea how I missed that I wrote pick of the pick instead though.

I would also be interested in the Hybrid code. thanks

Love the show as always and would love the code.

Cheapy, when you are on vacation take a break from the Cagcast. As much as I love the weekly show, you need to enjoy the time with your family. If Shipwreck and Wombat want to do a show that would be great.

Have fun in Canada and America!!

Good show once again, Id be down for hybrid code

Weird. I was replying to Shipwreck's post in the last thread and it tells me that it needed to be approved by a moderator. What's up with that?

Great show. Although,somewhat forgettable.I couldn't remember what had been said after the show ended. In it to win the Hybrid game.
