Great Podcast guys!

That Mega 3 sounds fantastic. Any chance of some screenshots of that awesome-ness?

Lucy talks about no innuendoes, but was it not her who mentions 2 girls, 1 cup and "c*ck"les of the heart? A Podcast without innuendoes would suck. It makes 27% of the humour. And also, she better be drinking good wine, not box stuff. That's just awful, unless it was an homage to Sam Worthington on Rove's last show.

Tristan, did you see Angel Falls? Aslo, your spanish spiel on HANGRY was tops!

About the transfer for the 360..lately, I've only noticed that my Arcade games release for full play when I'm online. I WANT MY FREAKING PUZZLE QUEST ALL THE TIME! So to a degree I feel that transfer system is somewhat flawed.

Ahhh, PODCAST MAGIC NOTE: Xmas party tonight. ROCK ON!

Glad you enjoyed it! What was I saying about being hangry? I think jet lag + wine/whiskey/bourbon was taking effect at that point.

We just went to Iguazu Falls up along the north border of Argentina. Very impressive! They took us out on a boat ride and went *under* a couple of the waterfalls.

The Mega 3: it's more than worthy of its own blog post, have been meaning to write one up. Stay tuned. ;)

good episode. on the MWF2 thing, I played the level, yeah it was something different and it did feel a little wierd, but in the end you are effectively role playing. When you fill the role of a greifer or pirate that has no reflection on you as a person. I guess I never see the connection between "video game" and RL. Killing civilians was like shooting fish in a barrel, how ever there are no consequence for shooting them, nor do you have any connection to them. A game is a game and no matter how realistic games become ( well maybe to a certain degree) I'm going to find it hard to find the connection (use the airport level as an example). The only time I get worked up is when I lose.

Great episode guys!

I'm brazilian, and i have to comment that here we have the invencible Mega Drive 3 (~NZ$140), with an exclusive design and with 86 games in the memory, including Fifa 2008™, Need for Speed Pro Street™, The Sims 2™ e Sim City™ (the version of the games are for mobiles) (link removed), but wait! We also have the superb Master System 3 (~NZ$100), with 131 GAMES, and an exclusive design, Amazing! (Lol) (link removed).

And as you said, Sony started to sell PS2, trying to compete with X360, but of course, this is a joke here in the gamers blogsphere, only idiots and casual casual gamers buy this things.

If one of you want a Master System 3, i can send it! (link removed)

Good to hear! You may be cheered up by our upcoming holiday podcast we recorded. It's...loose. Very loose.

I was standing around the NZGamer stand at Armageddon watching all the little kids laughing as their characters were beating the crap out of each other in Smack Down. Scared me a little.... Made me lose hope for the human race.
