I'll listen to it later, but that's hilarious that you took a picture of the game you skunked Wombat in table tennis. I was spectating that game and I really needed to be able to heckle.
 
I think everyone who listens to this looks at their pinky at the same time.

Anyways... you guys might want to be careful, iTunes may smack you with an Explicit Label... Not that I care, just letting you know.

Also, keep up the weekly PC game reviews haha.

Yeah,
I did.
Your man in Japan had me rolling this morning.

Good show guys.
 
[quote name='the3rdkey']I love wombat's voice![/QUOTE]

Yes, his Optimus Prime impersonation was spot on. :)

Cheapy, if the Bloomberg thing doesn't work out, I think you could get some voice work as Baloo.

I didn't listen yet, but noticed the mark when I downloaded it (to listen later). Thought it was a mistake.
 
Great show as always guys. CheapyD with the crazy japanese stories makes me believe you really do need a show about your crazy adventures. If it took off you could have Wombat fly in and do guest appearances. I can see it now called "Big Man, Small City in the Rising Sun" (it translates well to Japanese) picked up by G4. Wombat is reminding me of Fez from that 70's show with the mystery job that no one can figure out.
 
Wombat was right... the Tron theme doesn't sound like "Jew music".

Loved the "gift on the nightstand" comment, Wombat... ;)
 
Why this dude would tell you he ate crap is beyond me, but yeah, I've heard of the hostess thing in Japan. They did a story on 20/20 about a Hostess girl who was raped and killed. It is also a feature in the upcoming Sega game "Yakuza."
 
so if we don't know what Wombat does do we know what Cheapyd does? How much K are we making here? My favorite part was during the questions you tell wombat what the fuck do you do.

Wombat said it DOES sound like "Jew music".
I think i missed the nightstand comment...stupid skype.
 
Great show!

and for the record I'm one of those people that until a month ago only owned a Gamecube. I really enjoy my PS2 now, though.

Maybe Wombat is a game developer for EA games? Madden 2007 Yaaaay!

Get a 360 make a gamertag Ealookingforhire and invite him and ask questions :lol:
 
[quote name='MaskedPlague']Where were the gaming deals? Not that I cannot get them on the site, but sometimes I miss the obvious ones.

Great show otherwise.[/quote]Sorry about that...that definitely a case of me forgetting to put it on the outline.
 
Oh, and don't feel too bad about the 11-0 loss, Wombat.

Look what I did to one of the Managing Editor's of Joystiq today:
 
[quote name='2Fast']There's no way Wombat isn't in porn, it's just too obvious now.[/QUOTE]
I'm going to agree.

Circle gets the square!

BTW, I LOL'd @ Robocop

EDIT: PLAY PANZER DRAGOON ORTA!
It's pretty short and you can get through it without much trouble on easy. The story is great and the graphics are second only to Ninja Gaiden on the Xbox.

Interesting side note, I have a second cousin that made lots of money in wholesaling for the adult industry. He offered me a job when I was about graduate from college but I tuned it down. Now he's rich and retired and I'm poor and offering a free DS Lite to anyone who finds me a better job.
 
Okay, how weird is this:

This week the Atlanta Film Festival is going on here and I've been seeing a lot of indie films and meeting their makers. Tuesday night I met the producers of "The Great Happiness Space: Tale of an Osaka Love Thief," and sat with them during a screening. The next day you guys mention the film on your podcast. Eerie.

Cheapy: Just a head's up. I spent a lot of time with the directors of "Abduction: The Megumi Yokota Story," a documentary about the disappearance in 1977 of a 13 y.o. Japanese girl. Decades later it was discovered that she and many other young Japanese people were abducted by North Korea to train their spies in Japanese language and culture before deployment. The film documents the efforts of her parents and the families of the other abductees to get them back. I know it has been a big story over there, but I wasn't sure if you were familiar with it. Anyway, the directors told me it will be premiering in Japan in a week or two. You should go see it.

You never know how it'll go. My brother took our cousin up on his offer to manage a medicinal marijuana clinic in L.A. and was making money hand over fist. However, he had to put up with junkies pissing on the furniture and the constant threat of getting his head blown off. He got fed up with it after a few months and left. The next day, the store got raided by the L.A.P.D., who apparently didn't know (or, more likely, didn't care) that the place was legit.

Completely off-topic Tybee, but did you happen to go to the CampusMovieFest shorts on Saturday?

Alas, no. Were you there? I'll be at the Animation Extravaganza tonight.

Ahhhh no. I interned/co-oped for them for CampusMovieFest Spring Semester/travelled the country with them and was offered a flight to come down for it, but I had to work another job up here in Boston (where I live/go to school).

Also met the guy who runs the AFF at our Atlanta Finale as he was award the prize for best Comedy and I was presenting Best Drama I believe it was.
 
[quote name='CheapyD']I just wanted to say that today, once again I beat Wombat 11-0 in Table Tennis.[/QUOTE]

This should become a regular segment in the podcast: "The Wombat Whooping," brought to you by Red Bull.
