  7. Whats up with the Iron Maiden-style art this weak? Is that Deagle LARPing at the senior citizens home?

  13. SeanNOLA if you’re brother is friends with Colette, he is a gamer? You should have him on the show!

  15. Happy new year, T-G crew! Great show- Samurage makes for a awesome addition. I don’t even miss that other guy.

  18. Great title this week. Which show has the Sky Fighters impressions from NOLA? How did I miss this?

  21. I stopped buying UMDs a while back – I’ve always preferred downloads. The discs I still have are all older games or imports, like Rockman: Dash 1&2, so I kept my old PSP around to play those.

  23. I’ll take over an hour and a half of gaming chatter!

    XBox trivia was tough this week! Maybe it’s the forgotten console.

  24. I’ll take over an hour and a half of gaming chatter!

    XBox trivia was tough this week! Maybe it’s the forgotten console.

  26. I haven’t talked to him since we recorded that episode, but I’ll ask. Like I said, she looks awfully familiar, and I can’t imagine where else I would have met her, unless she went to Tulane.

  27. I want to know how long each member has been playing games for?

    For me? 26 years! I’m 31…

  29. lulz. You don’t KNOW minor members of the gaming press? What’s wrong with you?!? 😉

  31. The games were alright, but the books are fantastic! I strongly suggest any of the books in the “Death” story arc (Mort, Reaper Man, Soul Music, HogFather), but they’re all good.

  36. Damn! Ancient? You’re crushing my fragile ego.

    I take comfort in knowing I’m closer to a full retirement when I can game all day and not have a bathroom break thanks to Depends ‘undergarments’. 🙂

  38. I don’t think so at all.

    In all fairness, I make some wild comparisons, which NOLA loves to call me out on.

  42. Far geekier than any JRPG, if you ask me. I’ve tried to get into the books at least twice.

  45. I can see it now. It’s only a matter of time before Sage starts plugging something, like TideGear did.

  46. UN Squadrun is a must play game, people! Recognize.

    Deagle- on the CAGcast, Ship said he played 176 games this year. What about you?

  47. ZHP is nothing like Demon’s Souls. And why the hell didn’t Deagle play Demon’s Souls?

  50. Hot Shot Shorties are pretty cool, even if the games are broken up for no reason. Soccer is my favorite following by….book sorting.

  51. Three jobs for Sage?

    Thanks for the info on the Korean games- I’m hooked on Op 7 right now.

  53. My favorite part of the show was when Deagle called Sean Jerkland for making fun of his passion for sappy Japanese games.

    BTW- Metroid M- Best Wii games of the year!

  60. One Chance was sort of cool, but I wish you could make more decisions. Why can’t I save my wife at the expense of the world?
