E3 No'8: The Resentmentoid Podcast photo

While many of our team are on the front lines of E3 2008, a handful of bitter and resentful monstrosities, deemed too hideous to leave Destructoid HQ and interact with real people, are holding the fort. Ours is the world of live feeds and IRC chatrooms, and those are just as good, right? RIGHT!? Like us ... we're fun.

With little else to do and with the big three conferences having wrapped up, we felt that in lieu of your regular Podtoid (since the rest of the cast are getting drunk with Adam Sessler), we'd cobble together an E3 podcast from people not at E3. Somehow this is a great idea. So join Jim Sterling, Topher Cantler and Maybe Another Guest Or Two If Someone Else Is Bothered, as we discuss the big three conferences, and what we get up to instead of having fun.

Do you have questions, comments, or worse attempts at humor than that woman inflicted upon us at Nintendo's conference? Use the comments box below and be part of E3 No'8!

Speaking as a longtime Fallout fan: are Fallout fans the most disgusting, repugnant, malcontent trolls you've ever encountered, or is there some kind of mold growing under a rock somewhere that's worse?

What do you guys think of the new Xbox 360 dashboard? Good Idea or horrendously stupid idea?

yay! an excuse to hear Jim call Reggie names!

I guess big question is what was game of the show? And do we need a PS3 anymore if FFXIII is coming to the 360?

Will this be on iTunes?

Jim, do you now despise the Camminator more than you despise the Regginator?

Should we care that Microsoft decided to pull the plug on Bungie's "Big" announcement?

Which had a better showing at the Microsoft conference (and E3 in general), Guitar Hero World Tour or Rock Band 2? Which one are you more excited for or have these games totally gone under your radar.

And if any of you guys took a peek at the RB2 setlist, are you looking forward to anything in particular?

Also, I have apple pie. What would be the most appropriate ice cream flavour to have with said apple pie.

Hmm, did they showed anything else related to Madworld apart from that trailer? That looks like it has some potential, and it's, i don't know, very pretty.

@manasteel FF13 versus is still exclusive for ps3 so there is still a glimmer of hope.

Is the price cut for the ps3 going to gain sony any leverage over its competitors or is it still going to be considered too expensive?

Does Reggie legitimately believe that Nintendo's showing really appeals to the core Nintendo fan?

Or the loaded version of the question specifically for Jim: is Reggie just stupid or a liar?

Also, In regards to the last podcast, I think anthony mentioned the ipod not having much use(correct me if I'm wrong) I just wanted to say the ipod in mgs4 is somewhat useful for regaining psyche and some songs actually have status effects.

With Nintendo's keynote lacking for the "core" gamers, is this the big moment for 3rd parties on the Wii?
CoD:WaW, Conduit, Mad World, Mushroom Men, Dead Rising...

Also Jim and Topher in the same podcast is always solid gold.

Whats the chance of FFXIII will be actually enjoyable, and some boring scrap that I put down after wasting 20 hours of my life?

Top five upcoming titles that you are most excited about? Me?
1.) Fallout 3
2.) Gears of War 2
3.) Ghostbusters
4.) Left 4 Dead
5.) SW: Force Unleashed

Honorable mention- Mirrors Edge & Bionic Commando

how about you guys?

Additional question. Is Lord Sterling an only child? Because it seems as though his girlish whining about not being @ E3 is a telltale sign.

Sub Sterling Question:

On an earlier post he mentioned how some people, "gawp" at girls. I was wondering if that was Brittish slang or a typo for "gawk"

Will Jack Thompson blame you for being disbarred? Will Sony ever stop patting themselves on their back? Will video games move away from the trend of all big budget games being brown/gray piles of generic fps crap? Why have most of the press conferences sucked? How many times will you guys swear? Will there be ice cream? Punch?

Why was everyone's press conferences so bad?

I mean, Nintendo, I kinda get. "We're not talking to you right now, not really, ok?) But reading abotu the Capcom presser was depressing. They didn't even MENTION Mega Man.

What's wrong with this fun industry going all stuffy?

Should Nintendo have had this new 1:1 motion stuff in the Wii from the start? Are they just money-grabbing wankers?

Or

Is Go!View going to be swept under the rug in 6 months, or will it even make it that long?

Nintendo, WTF with the press conference. Discuss.

Why did Nintendo not bother showing off Rhythm Heaven, but had it at their booth?

Also, Fat Princess on PSN: Yay or nay?

With Nintendo and Microsoft going after the "Soccer Mom, Kids and Casual" crowd, what will this do for hardcore player?

Also, doesn't these moves only prove the stereotype that "Video sames are for kids"? Leading to another bullet point FOR censoring games to make them kid friendly!?

It's about time you two did a show with just each other. In honor of it's here's a haiku

The Resentment show
Those E3 cunts will be jealous,
of this podcast's win.

Jim: When are we going to see new Podcastle episodes? Also, will you be getting the DS GTA for your fetish worthy puke/baby poop green DS

Topher: How is the Mario Karting with your roommate going?

The both of you: can we have a huge fight between the retro gamer, Topher (who despises those Whippersnappers), and the next-gen gamer, Jim( who we all know is not a RETRIST! because he has retro friends) about what is better/ more difficult, Retro games, or Current games.

Question: Do you think that since E3 is loosing its old appeal, that Nintendo might be saving their blockbuster titles for some other expo's, such as Tokyo Game Show or Leipzig? Or are they just abandoning the hardcore market "completely"?

Oh, and BTW, I'm also on the ol "I resent not being at E3 and working my ass off" train of thought.

Where is the motion controller, and the Bungie game, and Alan Wake, and Shadow of the Colossus 2, and all the other games we expected?

Also, Bungie <3 EA???

I've said this before, but this years E3 was very disappointing. I think a lot of the speakers forgot that E3 is now a "business summit". So when they tried to get the audience riled up, it ended in fail.

Exactly how big of a shit do you guys think that Nintendo dumped on their fans at E3 this year? You may want to give the answer on a scale of 1 to 'public toilet-blocking steamer'.

Is this the first time you guys can remember a Nintendo system with better upcoming third-party support than first party. I mean third party there's The Conduit, Fatal Frame 4, Monster Hunter 3, and several promising multi platform games, while Nintendo has freaking Wii Music.

Are you digging the trans-sexual heroine for FF13.

On a scale of 1 to 10, how much wold you sex him/her up?

1 being, I'd rather eat a bucket of bile whilst chopping my own penis off.

and 10 being that you're a 'backdoor' lover.

DISCUSS. :)

I'm not really that jealous of the folks at E3. From what I've seen, we aren't missing much. E3 has been so far a let down in general.

Do you lose some faith as a gamer from the way that the entire conference has been rubbish so far, or does Wii Music's Early Learning Centre style "you push some buttons and music plays" format somehow make up for it?
