What else could it be this week? Well, it could have been anything, admittedly, but I chose Modern Warfare 2 so you're going to have to live with it, no matter how sick of hearing about the game you are. If you are sick of it, check the video out anyway. You may find it cathartic.
The best thing about this week's episode is that it is 100% spoiler free! That's right, I have managed to be able to talk about Modern Warfare 2 without giving any game details away, so feel free to watch in confidence as I talk about the game. Just be aware that this is the "standard edition" of the episode. There is a "prestige edition" that comes with X-Ray Specs and will cost you $10,000.

I want a refund! My x-ray specs cant undress people with my eyes and therefore are useless. I want my money back plus some real x-ray specs for the pain you have caused to me and my not-naked friends.
I really don't get the humor in what I have whatever clips. It's just utter nonsense.
Anyway, I do think MW2 is overrated. Single player is too hectic in place I don't even know what the hack is going on. Spec Op is limited to 2 players. Multiplayer is a super noob unfriendly and takes a lot of fun out of some folks like myself. Kill streak didn't make any sense. You often see kill streak awards leading to another kill streak leading to yet another kill streak and at one point I was literally trapped in a house waiting for the kill streak action was over.
Gah.....after a few hours of this game, I promptly went back to Borderland and start building my hunger character for the first time.
I guess I will try again sometime this week, but MW2, to me, is a disappointment.
Shadowii: I've been slacking on that. We put them on Youtube after they've been on Viddler for a bit. I need to go put the last two episodes on it today, which I will do whenever I can spare the bandwidthz.
These would be much better if you just stopped the 12-year old level "ololol i was molested as a kid isn't that funny" jokes in every single episode. As much as I disrespect you for your religion bashing in so many articles, I can differentiate that from your comedic talent, which you do have quite a bit of.
"These would be much better if you just stopped the 12-year old level "ololol i was molested as a kid isn't that funny" jokes in every single episode."
Actually, it's "lololol I had a fucked up childhood involving one of several horrible family members" jokes every episode. Uncle Reg is not mentioned in every episode.
Whatever you call it, it doesn't change the fact it would be funnier without those jokes. You know who else is trying to make humor based on a 'fucked up childhood'? Chris Rock. And look how funny his show is.
I was eating a warm sandwich with tons of mayonnaise, which was in my mouth when you went on that amazing rant about your uncle Reg.
I simultaneously laughed my ass off and spit out all the food in my mouth.
