It's hilarious how video game journalists all go on a tirade about how game length shouldn't matter in a game review when LIMBO came out. Now they all complain about game length in their Sonic 4 reviews.
 
I can't believe some people actually thought cheapy was serious about a new review system as ridiculous as they described. Awesome show as usual.
 
If I recall, with Star Wars Galaxies, you couldn't even necessarily work really hard to become a Jedi. I think there was some random element to it, and it was never made clear to the audience how they could improve their chances. What a joke.

At the time I started playing you had to master I think 6 (?) professions to unlock Jedi, but you didn't know which ones your character needed, so you just grinded professions until you unlocked. They changed that to a questline method later on, and then with the NGE Jedi was a starting character type.
 
Hey guys great show as usual. I'm pretty sure Oprah did a show from inside Shaqs house, but I'm not going to search for the video.

Quick question: NBA Jam was just announced as a disc release for 360 and PS3.

Is that the mystery EA game that you mentioned in last week's CAGcast?
 
I want to thank wombat and shipwreck for not making any jamarcus russell jokes.
NFL and codiene were really close in topic.

I took it seriously just because of the well known fact that Cheapy can be incredibly lazy.
 
Damn it you guys, I just started eating and you're already on to pooping in the shower.
I can't stop listening though because it keeps sounding like you guys are moving on.
Ah damn it, balls in toilet water...
 
Do you think you could get the toilet company to sponsor the show? It only makes me wonder what kind of sound effects Wombat would make as Cheapy does the promotion?!!!

Holy crap, I can't believe they marketed that towards kids. That is a very legitimate-looking gun.

I was just discussing this with another friend, but basically the only multiplayer game that's going to be played for a while is Black Ops after it comes out. Why even bother with Medal of Honor multiplayer (or Halo: Reach, for that matter), when the majority of that audience is going to play one game? I kinda wish they would improve the single-player campaigns or give me shooting challenges to extend the shelf life of these games beyond 6-8 hours - multiplayer gets old after a while, especially when someone keeps yelling obscenities in my headset.
 
Just wanted to say I really enjoyed Wombat's impression of Luke from Professor Layton. I'm not sure if it was because it was particularly good or not, but I was laughing pretty hard regardless.
 
i like japanese porn. not all of it but ive seen sme thats kinda interesting. those sharking videos are interesting due to how the women react ( you could never pull that shit here) and i once ran across some milking videos ....lactating chicks lactating or chicks squeezing other chicks boobs for milk. ive also notcied they seem to like porn with guys ganganging/raping women on busses or public pools ect. on the flip side of that i saw one with an asian woman doing the same thing to a man lol.
 
I was wondering when the fecal obsession would return. Yay!

My 6 year old daughter drops dukes that are the size of squash. One log refused to be taken to poo heaven, my wife had to help it down. Un/fortunately she didn't take a picture, but she was tempted. That would have been one for the sweet 16 party.

Great show! Always a pleasure! Keep up the good work! And Wombat please don't write a Fallout New Vegas review- hell will freeze over!

The audio quality is fantastic. Can you guys release these on vinyl so that I can play the Cagcast on my audiophile equipment?

Have you guys done a most anticipated games of the holiday season piece yet? Let's hear 'em.
 
I'll just leave this here....

Doodie in the shower, this is a new low Cheapy.. LoL

Quick reminder: Force Unleashed 1 didn't allow decapitation or cutting off limbs. It was lame. Glad to hear the sequel does, woot.

hmmm, apparently you can't write F A G A B E E F Y here.. sheesh...

As for the PSP2, does the system really need a second stick and FPS games to be successful? Shipwreck was the only sensible one in that conversation which makes sense as he is probably the only one out of the three of you who actually uses his PSP.

While I agree there are a couple of games that could have benefited from a second analog stick it's a short list compared to the stack of great PSP titles that do just find without it. The best PSP games in my opinion are the ones designed with it's controls in mind, not the ones shoe-horned into the system.

As for what the PSP2 can do to combat the 3DS? That's the million dollar question. Not sure the answer, but I'd much rather see functions like Netflix streaming in the PSP2 rather than a second analog stick.

ps - the finish line is somewhere..... in the Bonaventure Hotel!!!

You should give us notice on the cagcast when you start talking about feces, so we can skip it and just get on with the rest of the show, which is great.
 
lol yeah the beginning was a bit disgusting but aside from that, it was enjoyable.

Kind of did get me thinking about those toilets though...the closest thing I saw was the ones at some airport that automatically replaced the covers on the seats so that you didn't have to worry about putting toilet paper over them before you sat down.
 
Good episode too much talking shit but that is what the CAGcast is haha awesome discussion on the latest releases and such look forward to the next episode and to hear more clang noises on table too =]
 
Anyone think it's a bit ironic that CheapyD is laughing at listeners who couldn't tell he was joking, when he fell for Esteban's jokes some weeks ago? :p

The reason I liked my DS more than my PSP is that the former has a unique library of games you don't see on other platforms. A lot of PSP games try to mimic console counterparts, but they are ultimately inferior to them. I don't think the PSP2 is going to be much of a success, unless Sony does something different.

Anyway, good show. I'd be interesting in hearing what sort of stuff Shipwreck tours in Japan.
 
Hello! CAGcast:


Really Great Episode this week, guys.

Keep up the good work.


A quick question about rating score in the gaming industry.


This week Nintendo release Kirby's Epic Yarn. A lot of gaming site gave the game a very high score.

Do you guys think that "Nintendo's classic charaters games" always be that good? Even better than Uncharted 2, Gears, or Halo, etc.

'Cause I always see Mario, Metroid, Zelda, always have very high scores. I played those games before but I never really enjoy it.

I also want to give a shout out to the CAG members that Smallville was great this week. Hope the people who watched the show will enjoy it, specially Wombat.

Exscue my bad english and, I am not a native English Speaker
 
Wombat do not be lured in by Upper Deck's promises on the new Marvel trading card game. It was originally supposed to release in JANUARY and the release has been delayed by a year because UD is on the verge of bankruptcy and they couldn't afford to release it until now. They are losing money hand-over-fist because in the last 18-24 months, they killed VS. System, which is still the most successful card game based on comics ever, and lost the license for DC Comics (which was 1/2 of VS. System,) Yugioh, World of Warcraft, MLB, NFL, and NBA.

See my blog post from this summer about the downfall of Upper Deck.

Upper Deck can go fuck themselves with a fucking sword.
 
I listened to the CAGcast on the way to Knoxville with some friends of mine this weekend. They got a kick out of how casual the show was. I believe it actually peaked with Cheapy's "So preorder that shit at gamestop." when referring to DJ Hero 2, really cracked them up. It was pretty funny for some reason though...:dunce:
 
Wombat,

I grew up on L.I. and the closest we had to pumpkin picking was a trip to King Kullen. Where do you guys go to pick pumpkins these days?

Cheapy, Ship - do you foreigners have places to go pumpkin picking?
 
Great show guys.

One point of clarification regarding RB3 and the free Doors dlc:

- It is only free the first week of release
- You can only access the free content through RB3's in game music store.

So you have to own or borrow the game that week if you want The Doors for free.
 
I feel Cagcast #216, has been one of the better podcast I have heard this week. Maybe Wombat should stop talking Codeine, more often. Usually I find wombat a tad bit annoying at times, (but it adds to the humor of the podcast) but he was the total opposite this week. He was knowledgable and I "almost" agreed with everything he said. I wanted to know didn't the Duke Nukem Forever demo code come with the Borderlands GOY edition? Does it say when the actual Demo will be available on the access code? It wasn't mentioned when Shipwreck was talking about new releases this week...or are we passed Duke Nukem now?

All in all great podcast this week guys.

P.S. fuck the 3Ds
 
Good show; I laughed a lot this week [er, last week... getting around to this late], even though I felt bad that some of it was at Wombat's expense. He takes it in stride, though.

I wish there was something worth playing on the PSP, then maybe I would buy one. I'll probably spring for a 3DS because I'm a sucker and I haven't bought a DS since the Lite.

Also, Shaq's toilet?
 
Gotta love Sony and MS. Both are copying Wii at the precise time everyone is tired of it if recent Wii sales are any indication. :)
