Great Cagcast. A better name for this cast would of been Cagcast 25: singing in the rain or Cagcast 25: Max headrum edition (the 80's computer thing).

Also is Wombat a audio engineer?

I go first...
Does your job involve touching another man's private parts?

Anyone else notice the random beeps every once and a while (may just be me)? From the 40:00 - 42:00 mark there were a few. Seemed to be only when Cheapy was talking.


Another great CAGcast though.

So far all No's, the private part thing is more of a hobby.

Well..you live in New York so you are either a stock broker, a pizza maker, a hot dog vendor or a bagman for the mob.

What was that article Wombat was reading a week or so back that said Godfather was EA's first M-Rated game they released?

Because if I'm not mistaken, they released TimeSplitters Future Perfect quite a while ago, and that was also M-Rated.

Variety. Why in God's name I remembered that I will never know.

Nope, but I have done all three, did I mention that I was on the phone with EA just before. The plot thickens....

I must say I was pretty disappointed with your latest cagcast. Some rather starteling errors, especially on the FN3 bit. First of all in her letter the editor writes how they now use a twenty point system not a hundred point system. So the next available grade would have been 9.5, not 9.9. Also FN3 is supposed to be a near perfect boxing game, the length or ease of the game is not something to be sniffed at. At the very least your're going to be fighting some 40 or 50 fights to be the world champ, is it realistic to have to fight even more than that? And let us also point out that FN3 was getting high scores by a lot of people, most of who used the hundred point system.


PS: In a bit of irony even you cheapy said "a game better be damn near perfect to get a 10"

I haven't played the game (other than the demo), bit I was just going on what I read from other reviews.

IGN 8.5/10
GameSpot 8.3/10

That's just silly. Speaking of silly, it was no great challenge to knockout heavyweight Muhammad Ali in the fifth round, on hard, with featherweight Manny Pacquiao, even though the Filipino stallion is less than half the size of Ali. Next year we really hope to see the AI and difficulty settings improved.
To me, that doesn't sound like it's even close to the perfect boxing game.

a perfect 10 shouldn't be used to describe the perfect boxing game, it only be used to describe the perfect game, FN3 is not the perfect game
