Highlights this week include:

Stop, you're making me blush.
Also, big super huge thanks to Rev. Anthony for reading my New Gamer Dictionary suggestion.
Good show :)
Hope I get something as awesome as I did last time.
Also, since you can watch on GGPO there should be an episode of Stella vs Everyone in everything with commentary. It'd be awesome :-p
From the mother-fucking dictionary (it's like the bible for words, only true):
[i]adj.
1. Retroactive: retro pay.
2. Involving, relating to, or reminiscent of things past; retrospective: As is often the case in retro fashion, historical accuracy is somewhat beside the point (New York Times).
n., pl. -ros.
A fashion, decor, design, or style reminiscent of things past.[/i]
As a noun retro exclusively means something new that is an old style. Thus describing the style of a game as retro when it isn't actually old is not only an appropriate way to name the style but the only appropriate way to use that word in that context. Though when describing something as a "retro game" it is perfectly acceptable to be referring to either a game that is actually old or a new one that simply draws on elements of those older titles.
I'd have thought everyone would know this as a matter of course without having to consult the dictionary, but clearly my education was far more elite than I realize.
Anyways nice show.
Talk about the SEGA GENESIS even if you always talk about Nintendo or Xbox360. Who own a Sega Genesis Console or any Sega console? Are you guys going to see Brüno (Rated Rrr)?
