  1. Hi, Well done on the podcast, I was sitting at my desk here (accross the pond from the US) and stumbled on your website. I like the idea that you have a girl who is a ‘proper gamer’ on the team.

    I particuarly enjoyed the Atari article as I brought the Alone in the dark 360 game and feel completely scorched by my purchase (and now i know why I couldn’t find a review before I forked over 40 quid!).

    Would like to see some more game reviews and opinions but you are doing a great job. Keep it up!.

  2. Ouch, sorry to hear you purchased it without a review, honestly, I had thought the game was supposed to be great (considering Atari let go of so many franchises and kept that one).

    Apparently they failed in execution 😐

    Thanks for the comments and for taking the time to listen to the podcast! As a guy that recently visited London, I can tell you I cannot imagine spending 40 quid on anything as that’s 80 USD 🙂

This week, we are running an outtakes episode, part of it long conversations that were cut from previous episodes, while others are just bloopers.

In fact, the first thirty-five minutes or so of the outtakes is Jonah and Jordan discussing news items waiting for Paul to login that didn’t make the cut for the podcast. Other interesting bits is Jonah and Paul talking about pen and paper RPGs and how badly the 4th edition of Dungeons & Dragons stinks, and Paul and Jordan berating stores that put up their Christmas decorations a few months early.

Next week, we’ll have a regular podcast, but this week, enjoy the outtakes.
