Thomas Lennon is like unto a god.
Tonight, Jim, Aaron, Topher and I will discuss first versus third-person perspective, LittleBigPlanet's copyright crackdown, Activision's exploitation, and CliffyB's assumption that gamers don't take game worlds seriously enough.
Once again, we are in dire need of:
- Your Der Sïëgëlpüntz™
- Your questions
- The kind of pudding only $240 can buy
Feel free to hit the comments and provide us with all three.

A physical one that is.
Foul play is encouraged.
The State. Fap worthy for sure.
WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON!?
When playing a game such as Fallout 3 that has good/evil choices, why do so many people go with the good choices first and then replay the game as a total badass?
Also, CliffyB's tubgirl faceplate - your thoughts and/or vomit?
@Dexter
I like to pretend that they're sharing a tender embrace and cuddling to somehow transfer health to one another.
Recently Fallout 3 glitched on me and I was unable to complete a main story quest so I was just wondering if any of you guys had a similar experience with a game. Have you ever enjoyed a game and had a glitch ruin it for you even though you wanted to play?
A lot of people say Call of Duty 5 are saying it's good because it is the same as Call of Duty 4 but isn't that what we waited a year for a new game?
Now that it is almost here thoughts of new xbox dashboard?
p.s. that would be a good question for the gamer dictionary segment. That feeling you get when a game your anticipating finally comes out and you feel nothing. I could be alone in this sensation of indifference lol
Also, I was listening to an older Retroforce episode (13, I think) and, in the Rev Rant, you brought up the idea that video game titles, for the most part, are shit. Do you think that the Great Deluge of games in that past months (with titles such as Mirror's Edge, Left 4 Dead, Dead Space, LittleBigPlanet, etc.) have gotten better titles, or are they just as terrible as before?
You can battle my battalion in Battalion Wars 2!
The Max Payne film, WTF?
Also, do you feel that creating your own character somehow adds another level of immersion to the game and at the same time improves the quality of the experience? Or do you enjoy having the main character be developer designed?
Get your gears spinning all over again in Gears of War 2.
Why isn't homosexuality explored more in games? Aside from like Fear Effect and the like, I can't think of too many, or any, games that have had gay characters or used gay people in complex stories (well, i guess gears of war...) It just seems like this is a really missed opportunity. If someone handled the matter maturely, they might be able to hold it up as an example of how forward thinking and deep the medium could be. Thoughts?
Aaron: How many terms for jizz do you know?
Jim: CliffyB's faceplate. Discuss. (Disgust?)
Topher: What's your ideal question?
Do you guys think it's funny or do you think Yahtzee is just a bit content with the sound of his own voice?
question: should mailboxes and mailbags undergo a redesign to better accomodate taco deliveries?

Lately I'm busy and find myself at a loss for gaming time. Anyone on Podtoid find themselves without time to finish their backlog of games? I must have 30+ games that I own but haven't played more than an hour or two.
Is Ben PerLee a douche?
I'm thinking 'Facebreaker: Fisticocks'.
Waggle to attack, oh yes, waggle to attack.
If I agreed to pick you up some fast food, would you pay for your half?
Do you like to be player one or player two?
Is Fallout 3 GOTY material?
Why isn't Boner Quest out yet?
Who is Jim Sterling?
On that note, does the cast prefer games which take a central, highly refined mechanic and explore it to it's fullest potential, or games which provide an array of gameplay styles and provides regular changes of pace/environment?
What, outside of my nostalgia glasses, keeps me from being as enthusiastic about new games as I was of old?
In part because those originally involved in the game's creation have little to no control over the adaptation, it frequently, if not always ends up going horribly wrong.
So my question is this: Aaron, who would you want to direct and star in a Bonerquest movie. Keep in mind that as Bonerquest would be leagues ahead of a Hentai game, the Bonerquest movie would have to be that far beyond a typical porno.
-Why hasnt there been a Wiimote/powerglove hybrid yet ?
-Does Fable 2 have any replay value ?
-Are camera sensative games (eyetoy play) out ?
You won't be able to resist the temptation of Resistance 2 sixty player deathmatches!
So far, what are your favourite games of the holiday season so far?
Also when do you expect the HD Wii? Will it already get announced at next E3 or will we have to wait until 2010?
I've been working at Target as a part-time cashier/"electronics dude" and whenever a cashier needs change, they request it via the register, which sends a message to a PDA that someone has on them.
The thing is, when someone requests change, it's the coin sound from Super Mario World. I had wondered why it sounded so familiar until I booted up the game and heard the sound when it first boots up.
Also, a question: Why is the ESRB telling Gametrailers to take shit off of their website? No one has been able to explain to me why a RATINGS ORGANIZATION has rights to tell websites what they can and can't show. I'm confused.
I am that guy. Should I play it, or should I just get back to fighting off the Locust Horde?
Also how goes Jim's America plans, and how soon will we be able to chastise him for no longer being a real English wanker and just the less classy Anglo-American tosser?
Do you think this question can apply to other games? Can a game's inspirations and references actually hinder your experience with the game if you are already too familiar with them?
Penny Arcade 2 will leave the ladies rain slick in their pants
It was too awkward and broken *not* to share.
