really interesting discussion this episode about the preorder stuff. Like how there was some input from the retail side of things, what with the ex-gamestop employees/managers ringing in.
I was the guy that gave away the tickets to Jon Q. I am glad that he was able to make it to PAX after all. I have chatted with him a few times and he is a good kid.
My wife and I were supposed to go to Seattle and me to PAX, but I have a sick kid at home so I stayed and let my wife go with one of her friends (she needs a vacation more than I do). Anyway, not 20 minutes after arriving in Seattle, she meets Adam Sessler from G4 and has a nice conversation with him and even gets a photo op with him. Joy.
@KillerBee: I would like to say something to you but I cant frame my response properly, so let me just give you a smile and a nod.
*smiles and nods head*
@KillerBee: A great example of the community helping out. They seem to be few and far between these days but stuff like this makes me have just a little bit more hope. I'm glad everything worked out and maybe you two can have a great time together next PAX.
Re: something negative.
a $99 dollar ps2 dosent do the same thing for ps2 software that a ps3 does. i got a ps2 slim instead of getting a ps3 because I cant commit to that kind of a spend.
I would however one day, when i can afford to, like to play these games in upscaled hi-def. not complaining, it's simply why I want a BC playstation3.
just a thought.
p.s. and like fahey said "cords", so many cords and boxes.
Don't know why, but I laughed so hard early on in the podcast when both the caller and Stephen got dropped. Crecente pulled out of the nose dive by uh-oh'ing followed by Fahey's "Something Positive" segment.
I'm so happy Kotaku finally removed its head from its ass and started a Podcast. So far, so good and I know its only going to better. I think I even like the format, but need a few more episodes to decide for sure.
whoa whoa... "work-out"?? so you expect us to work an honest job, be an avid gamer, AND stay in shape? two outta three man, you can't have your cake and eat it too.
@-MasterDex-: I think the commenteres should do one!!
So there podcast on the Wednesday, and a Sunday edition for the commenter's.
Come on we spend hours on inane chatter in the steam group. Just put that in voice form, pack it, ship it and well be rich in no time.
@-MasterDex-:
1. produce podcast
2. reduce to $249
3.????
4 Profit!!
Anywho, I'm gonna look into that site Kotaku currently use, see if it's free etc. n maybe we could set something up. Doubt we'd do anything live though.
@-MasterDex-: 1am TF2 matches..aaah.
But looked into it, It's free (ad supported).
But! ( and this is the big But!!) I now see why they don't use Skype of the calls. You don't connect to it like say Teamspeak or whatever, you actually ring up. So for say... folks in Europe on an international line, an hour show would be horrendously expensive. Especially as I have no landline as a student.
So I'm gonna scout about for alterntaitves, it could be a cool project
I usually play on the lowest setting first. That way when I run through it on a harder setting, I know what to do faster. Except for Gears 2. I cleared it on Hardcore first, Insane 2nd, Normal 3rd and Casual last.
Now Expert on L4D? I won't even bother. I just stick to Normal. Plus no one's ever willing to help me get those damn achievements because they're too busy in Versus >:(

That was very nice of you (giving away the ticket and staying home with your kid). It's neat that your wife met Adam Sessler!

I don't know about Kotaku but someone has had their head up their ass if they think Kotaku is just starting to do podcasts.

How about making these podcasts twice a week? I love them so much that a week is too long!

Unlikely considering as gamers we have the intrinsic ability to disregard time. :D
