The Podcastle records tomorrow for God's sake photo

Destructoid's least popular podcast, The Podcastle, records tomorrow for all fifteen of its listeners. I have no idea what we're going to talk about, but I'm sure it will all be videogame related and we won't go off on any tangents about sex pests and swearing. We never do that. 

As always, we need some questions and comments from you filthy lot, because we are too lazy and incompetent to come up with our own material. Also, Atheistium actually likes Velvet Assassin so I have a feeling she has brain problems and might not even survive long enough to make it to the end of the show without help.

Ask away, and we promise to read your comments out unless they're really stupid. Or if we get tired and want to stop the show.

You could talk about what games actually had the balls to release this close to E3?

Punchout, Bionic Commando, Sacred.

You could also click on this link and be impressed by it's pure awesomeness

The fail Tony Hawk Ride peripheral is out; you could talk about how many lawsuits will result.

Wardrox is Raji James - discuss.
Jim is is Ray Peacock - discuss.
Atheistium is Ed Gamble - discuss.

Ok, a proper question for proper people:

I've been thinking about PAX of late and was wondering what are your thoughts are on people gallivanting off to a strange country with people they have only previously communicated with via online mediums (for the most part).

And another:

'Services' such as GENreps, Charisma +2, etc. Blatant manipulation of predictable gamers (see: nerds) or a legitimate part of gaming culture?

Atheistium - Lara, Snake, Dante. Which do you rape?

Wardrox - I began dying my hair purple a while back and despite using every colour care conditioner and whatever under the sun and other such dicking about, I've yet to find a brand of permanent colour that lasts any longer than most semi-permanent brands. Are there any particular brands of permanent hair dye you have found that last longer/brighter than others?

If you could be a voice actor in one video game, past/present/future, what would it be? Try to come up with something other than MGS.

Bonus points for explaining what type of character you would portray, and then delivering a couple sample lines.

I fucking wish.

I will say that the Peacock podcast has made me think a lot more about how to do Podcastle.

Tatsunoko vs Capcom is said to be coming to the US. If it actually sells well, do you see a trend coming of publishers banding and working out licensing issues to release games that were once said "impossible to be released outside Japan"? Or might this be a one time thing?

It's not about the number of listeners. It's about the cult following Jim. And I'm happy to be part of it. :)

Question: Will you use a rusty hacksaw or a diamond drill bit for Atheistium's lobotomy in order to release all the spunk that has wandered through her face and into her skull over the course of 34 lovely episodes of the Podcastle?
Will it help to relieve the pressure on her brain, or will it build up further and therefore cause her head to explode and the thereby spread seamen to impregnate all fertile women on the British Isles?
Would this qualify als a biological weapon?

If the swine flu works it way through 2K Marin aftera deadly exposure at E3, causing a complete derailment of the development (Forever!), resulting in BioShock2 being the next Duke Nukem Forever, would you cry?

Do you guys think that a Crackdown sequel will be announced at E3, or at any point in the near future? Also, if you could kick a vehicle down a highway and hit someone with it, who would it be?

So I was on the Twitters a few days ago when Atheistium Twittered about how hiding in cupboards in Velvet Assassin reminded her of Haunting Ground so I rebutted with asking if the Nazis impregnate her in the bad ending, to which she replied "I bloody hope so!" So this got me thinking, if you could have any video game character or industry member impregnated, who would it be, who would impregnate them and what horror would be created.

Have you played pocket god for the iPod touch and how amazing is it?

If pirating games is bad for games and velvet assasin is a horrendously bad game, and since the enemy of my enemy is my friend should we all pirate velvet assasin? Keep in mind that this game did murder you jim.

-In what year will it be alright to make a "World War 2" game that has you playing out a german National Socialist soldier desperately trying to defend his country and destroy the evil Allied forces ?

-What type of game do you feel only gets love/praise from EURO gamers ?

Special requests:
Lauren please make that American girl gamer impression

Does Atheistium like Velvet Assassin because she is a lesbian and enjoys the 'morphine' part of the game?

You guys are always talking about how much England sucks for gamers and I was curious, is there any upside to being a gamer in England? Or is it all doom and gloom?

After seeing the ridiculous $4,000 Xbox sneakers, what would it take for you to drop that much money on shoes? Would they have to make you run at blinding speeds like Sonic the Hedgehog, or have some sort of advanced spunk-shielding technology?

Further to my earlier correspondence with Wardrox on the issue, what is your opinion of ? Charlie Brooker's Gameswipe?(http://bit.ly/gHAMc) ) Does it have any bearing on my question from last show? Do you think it will be as good as his other shows (if not better)? Do you think the BNP are twats? (http://bit.ly/10r0fw)

Jim, any thoughts on the passing of Frank "Worst Mayor in America" Melton earlier this month? Should we smash up a few crack houses with sledgehammers to pay tribute to his memory?

In response to Jim's post about UK companies emigrating because the lack of government support: Is there any way we could show them that games can be a mature and interesting type of media, or is our traditionalist government too snooty to think of such a thing as a thoughtful game such as Shadow of the Colossus?
