Oh god that Atari commercial at the end brought back bad memories. That girl in the commercial I wanted to hurt badly for being so "Tubulor!!" then. I just want hurt her even worse now!

Otherwise great show.

I stopped listening when you guys trashed my favorite site Kotaku. Time to go blast CAG on myspace.

Now that I have a PSP again and can listen to RSS feeds, I like to drain my battery once a week listening to the show. I just recently started listening to the show, but I have them all DLed I believe on iTunes. I liked the unorganized show last week. Good show and keep up the good work.

I thought Ray's was "Original"

@Brain Age
"Blue"...seems to work better if you emphasize the "BL" sound
Letters and numbers seem to recognize better if write them in one stroke

but yeah Brain Age in fact does the opposite it seems to make me feel like a dumbass.

@Gamerdaddy
cause 400 dollars wasn't enough...only reason I got one was because I wanted to play DOA4, otherwise the library doesn't have anything that says "BUY ME"

@4 Swords
::raises hand:: I can actually accomodate 4 players in 4 swords...getting 4 friends is a different issue

Ha ha, CheapyD gave his own show a 5. This week's show was ok. If you need another place that tells what games are coming out each week I think you should use the one at next-gen.biz . Also no more oblivion; I'm now tired of hearing about it.

More Oblivion. It makes me want to buy a faster processor so I can play it.

Regarding Cheapy's prediction that there will be no playable PS3 games at E3:

Quote:
the developer commented that the game (Warhawk) would be playable at the event, meaning there will be PS3 kiosks on the show floor.

As for the CAGcast, it was a little too long since it was filled with 40 minutes of Oblivion talk. You two should make a seperate Oblivion podcast if you're going to talk about it so much. I really think the structured CAGcasts are much better than unstrctured. Doing a little research before the show can add a lot to the show. Why bother doing the show if you're not going to prepare for it?

That's not fair...i timed it...it was less than 6 minutes.
Maybe it just seemed like 40.

It was too much to me when I thought you guys had moved onto a new topic and found out you were still on Oblivion.

Despite the long time, it didn't seem like there was a lot of content and it seemed like you guys weren't really into doing the show this week.

I don't believe there was any talk about Advent Children or OutRun 2006.

As for places to find games being released each week, GameSpot has an interesting new look to their release date schedule.

If I can endure literally years of hearing people yap about Final Fantasy VII, then certain people can endure 5 minutes of Oblivion a week.

Also Cheapy, as for a Daedric artifact to give Martin, I would go with Azura's Star (the reusable grand sould gem) or the Savior's Hide from the Hircine quest (especially if you prefer Heavy Armor to Light Armor). There's also a mace and hammer that are easy to part with if your a blade character. I would tell you to give him the Masque of Clavicus Vile from the Deadric quest of the same name, but thats the one that freezes 99.9% of peoples game (which sucks because you have to complete all the other 14 Daedric quests to do the 15th) making it impossible to do the last one until Bethesda does a patch.

Speaking of which, why don't they release that instead of a bunch of add on shit? I still say the Wizards Tower is the coolest building or house in the game, but the fact that it always rains up there is bullshit.

With regards to Brain Age, if you hold the DS about 1 foot away, it picks up "blue" better. Supposedly the mic is very sensitive. Doing it the old way where I was screaming into the DS mic got me 15+ "incorrect" answers and a brain age of 84 years old. When I held the DS farther away, it messed up 2 or 3 times and cut my brain age to 47.

Or you could just pick the "I can't talk" option and do the three mini-games instead of that broken color word game. I did that and my brain age is now 24.

Thanks, I wound up giving martin some lame ring from the "bad personality" shrine.

Also, I did manage to get a good/clear view from the Wizard's Tower once.
Once.

Those of you who think the CAGcast is too long should try listening to Dual Screen Radio, a DS-focused podcast. They clock in at about three hours, and believe me, you feel every minute of it. But they do occasionally provide some worthwhile info and they tell you more than you'd ever want to know about some import titles.

Even at an hour plus, the CAGcast feels positively brisk by comparison.

Towards the end, Wombat mentions Cheapy possibly getting free game at E3 from Microsoft. Have you guys ever thought about doing a review of the week based on actual gameplay of a new or relatively new game. It would probably be hard to get "free" games from developers, but you could always rent one, play it for a little while and give an unbiased review. Apparently, Wombat doesn't have any time for this because he always uses the excuse that he has a day job.

It's not that the length was too long, just that for the amount of content, it certainly could've been 10-15 minutes shorter.
