Like, one of the Huey's first lines as you're recusing him is him trying to pass the blame to Snake for what happened nine years ago. You can tell pretty early that Huey is kind of a little poo poo.

To be fair, he's not wrong. Boss's bizarre fixation on having nukes leads to his downfall at least three times over the course of his warlording career. Hell, the plot of the original two games is "BIG BOSS has a nuclear robot! Is SOLID SNAKE a bad enough dude to take him down?"

RE Umbrella Corps is pretty much the multiplayer from Dead Space 2 which was alright at best and dropped basically immediately when the devs realized it wasn't that fun and people weren't playing it.

Haven't gotten to the Retro VGS part of the podcast, but this had my eyes rolling.



No patches and system updates! Because I totally trust that games made by the indies that they'll be able to goad into make games for them will be perfect, because not even NES and Genesis games ever had revision versions.

Wii U's boot time is not exactly a travesty that makes me pine for ye old days of cartridge games.

They say that they know a console is only as good as it's games...yet do nothing to really sell me that this won't just be another Ouya with a bunch of whatever games that will just be ported to another system because the dev actually wants to make money.

I totally want to play $300 for a a console than only has new "retro" games that cost between $30-$60 that can't be patched and are available for much cheaper on other platforms.

The low price of 100$ cheaper then a console that will play "retro" games and new ones alike.

Also I wasn't aware discs were fragile media.

E: Also, Pat got the WoW character boost thing wrong. There is one that comes free with the expansion (and there will be another with the next), it's just that you can buy more separately.

Yeah, but you only get those by paying extra for the special editions, so you're still pretty much paying for a character boost.

That video games ad question at the end was really cool. Them talking about commercials during Raw reminded me of my favorite Majora's Mask commercial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n6JlLiOHy90

Majora's Mask in general had some neat ads. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5Mf2mp6fms

No? Both the base and collectors edition of Warlords come with the character boost. Now, the expansion did cost 10$ more then previous, but that's just keeping pace with other games. There's literally no option to get the expansion without the free boost.

Huh, I could have sworn it was only in the special editions. My bad.

Oh yeah, I forgot to post my "favorite" ad. Anyone remember they Playstation 3's "This is Living" campaign? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=psd8oVToS8k
