Tonight, Podtoid talks PAX, Arkham Asylum, and QTEs. And probably other stuff, which will be decided later. We'll also get some sort of an update on the nuggets debacle.
As always, we need your questions. The best question-asker-person gets a Dtoid swag bag, so hit the jump and give it everything you've got.
And yes, Kohlstream's It Never Happened techno remix will be the intro to the show.

And, more videogamingly, what are your favourite/most remembered death scenes in games and in what way did it stand out? I've been thinking about how few times there are in games and movies where an important character is killed without any dramatic speech or build up and, to me, that would make the death a bigger impact.
Oh, and have you ever predicted plot twists insanely early?
Have you guys seen the new commercials for any of the old Billy Mays products? Why did they have to go to opposite side of the voice over spectrum?
My first is this: How are you today?
Second: What personality trait annoys you the most about each cast member? Do it with love please. You boys leave samit alone!
Thirdly: Can I have a hug or maybe even an autograph please?
In short, does the thought of who your money is going to ever influence your game purchasing decisions?
For Example: BLACK/WHITE button on original XBox controller, Z button (Gamecube), R2/L2 Dualshock 3,...
My question is simply; "What the shit?"
Am I going to decide to NOT open it partway through? Am I supposed to find it a challenge? I've never understood that sodding idea.
What are your last words?
For example, personally it was survival horror/Resident Evil. I didn't give the series a second look until RE hit the GGN, but after I tried that I was hooked and now throw myself at anything remotely survival horror.
Additionally, Goddamn Power Corp!
I really don't get the backlash for Heavy Rain being a QTE heavy game, since I thought Fahrenheit was such a great game in the way it was styled. When David Cage has a moan at the people criticising Heavy Rain already for its focus on quick time events, to me he just seems to come off as insecure with his current work. He made something great, he's following it up and hopefully the product will be as good, if not better than he made before!
Now for some real questions. Besides Arkham Asylum, what other games do you feel have had something really going for it, only to drop the ball at the end?
I MAED A GAM3 W1TH ______ 1N IT!!!1
Also, Anthony what do you think of the Eleventh Doctor? The casting, his outfit etc etc.
My question for you is have you ever played or heard of a game that featured a license that made you wonder "Why the fuck is this a game?"
How do you feel about it and does it give Capcom more credit for risking to use an IP that didn't work so well ?
What was good about them and what was awful?
Hey Brad! I know I would! First, I'd smother myself with brown mustard and relish. I'd be so delicious!...So would you?
WARNING! All his questions are trick questions!
'How big are my muscles?'
Any answer you give is wrong, they are THAT big.
'If I was a hotdog, would you eat me?'
NOONE can eat Brad Nicholson, even if he was a hotdog.
'I like cats, for the record.'
Yeah, as in he eats them for breakfast.
Also. Has any of you ever gone to the docks to find some sailors?
