That logo is all washed out. I'd fix it, but I recently picked up Rock Band and now I can't be bothered to do anything but rock the junk off those plastic drums.

Anyway, I thought I'd give a brief follow-up report on Episode 1 of Mommy Are The Monsters Gone?. Despite all my testing and Rock-Band-avoidance in getting set up for the thing, we had last minute technical difficulties with the audio. We went on about 15 minutes late and weren't able to grab audio for the promised podcast.

Technical glitches aside, I think our 8 viewers all enjoyed themselves. It was downright entertaining, as first tries go, and I'm prepared to call it a success. A Success. And then there was Joe's ass.. but then, I think that's how most stories end (don't believe me? Go read A Tale of Two Cities and TRY and tell me the ending isn't an elaborate allusion to Joe's ass).

There was ranting, there were unsubstantiated rumors, and there were Mad Libs.. which I'm going to call Mad Gibs or something. Look for Episode 2 this Thursday night. I'll post the details here a bit before-hand. Topic suggestions welcome (and possibly ignored)!

Ep1 Highlights:

* I can't change my GamerTag region. Angels weep.
* Squeenix might love on the 360 more than you think.
* UMD: Now with 80% less Vin Diesel!
* Joe's pretty positive you're never going to see a Blu Ray player on the 360. Like, very positive.
* Don't be shocked if GTA IV slips its release date one only one of the two systems. Why? REASONS!
* MGS: Snake Eater sold WAY better than I thought it did.

Namelessted was kind enough to capture some screens.
