Cheapy, perhaps your Xbox One wouldn't turn on because Kinect recognized a disgruntled ex-employee.

Also, I want in on the Max giveaway. Thanks crew

Wombat had a Sega CD, and just now hearing about this? What was your favorite title?

 

Also I'll enter that Max brotherhood thing.

Here's my comment for Wombat's giveaway, who had the normal cardboard box version of Night Trap while Shipwreck had the 32X CD version.

Edit: never mind, decided against getting an Xbox One for the forseeable future, don't include me in the contest!

I fully support buying Nerf guns. I'm 23 with no kids, but I have quite a few Nerf guns. You're never too old to get together with a bunch of friends and run around and shoot each other.

 

Also, depending on the day/time I'd be down for a mini CAG meetup.

Forget about someone visiting ship to check out his stash, I want ship to host a Retro Video Game Hunter show where he traverses the country looking for unique and hard to find video games and video game memorabilia.

 

Would love a copy of Max for the Xbox One.

For the Wombat giveaway on XboxOne, Max Curse of the Brotherhood.

I'm purchasing the Nstrike shotgun for my little one to terrorize my wife too!

Hey Wombat can I have a Max code por favor?! I promise not to shoot anyone in the nuts with my Nerf gun!

P. S. That splitter shouldn't degrade your connection quality.

Wombat, did you use any cheat codes normally found in Lego games to get that many studs in Lego Marvel?

I would like a code for Max the curse of brotherhood.

 

Cheapy has convinced me to not only add Nerf guns to my Amazon cart but also go fish my Pebble out of the tech drawer it's been living in.

 

Also Wombat when you do add that coaxial splitter be sure to do a Speedtest beforehand (not during the show lol) and afterwards. My own ISP gave me a splitter that cut my speeds in half.

Hey Wombat: If you're still giving away the Max: The Curse of Brotherhood codes, I'd like to get one.

Cheapy, even though he keeps asking, "Have I mention Tokyo American Club?" He literaly talks about it all the time.

I had a similar problem with my speeds going down when using an ISP provided splitter.

Wombat. . . when you upgraded to 50mbs from verizon did they give you a new router (a red one)? 

 

When I upgraded, my internet speed actually went down (from about 20MPS to about 5MBPS). I called verizon and they sent me a new router, i plugged it in and my speeds skyrocketed (50MBP+). 

 

 

If you have a new router I would suggest that you give them a call. Here are the stages:

 

1) They will put the blame on you. You will have to un-plug and replug in everything you own (including your blender). When they say that your speeds my be effected by WIFI say "If I was getting 30MBPs i would see your point, but 4MBPs is not a WIFI issue).

 

2) They will ping your system and do some internal computer wizzardry. This sometimes works.

 

3) They will offer to send you a new router. If that does not work, they will then send out a tech rep to inspect your line.

 

4) The Tech Rep will come over and plug weird devises into your shit. Usually they will figure something out, if not i would switch providers.

 

 

EDIT: Your initial call to Verizon will take about 45 minutes to an Hour. It is NOT a fast process. Sometimes they will offer to call you back if they have to do extensive tests (9 out of 10 times they won't call you back and you will have to call them and start over with someone new).   I have gone through this process about a 1/2 dozen times (I hate verizon).

No offense to anyone but that ad talk was boring as shit. A simple- "Microsoft probably had nothing to do with it, it was an advertising company paying the youtubers" would've sufficed. 

 

I DO NOT want a copy of the Max game.

Sign me up for the Max giveaway.  And disappointed no talk on the cagcast concerning Wombat's Lost Key Saga.  Maybe this is due to Saga copyright?

Hey Cheapy,

John at 8-4 Play has bad back pain and needs suggestions on a Standing Desk. Help your boy out with recommendations.

Wombat put me in for Max Curse of a Brotherhood giveaway.

Proof I listen to the show... You ask for proof that we listen to the show. :)

Lol, calling Xbox One the "Michigan J Frog of voice control" made me spit up my coffee. So perfect!

 

Mine will almost never "turn on", but it's got about 95% success with "turn off".

 

Also, sure, I'll take a Max code!

 

Thanks for the great cast.

If Cheapy really wants to get a lot of people watching him stream for Child's Play he should try streaming Dark Souls.

Good Show.  The difference between the PS3 and 360 and the Xbox One and PS4 aren't the same so I doubt we will see anything like the PS3 version of Skyrim on Xbox One. 

 

Count me in for the Max code.
