What is the Rushin' Attack tie in? Keep in mind I just woke up.

What is the Rushin' Attack tie in? Keep in mind I just woke up.

We tried to come up with a video game based title that tied into the fact that you had to go to work before the end of the podcast.

SPOILERS... :D

I can't remember the one I came up with right now.

LOL.

Brnt's typing was fucking annoying. I wanted to reach through the interwebs and roundhouse kick him in the neck.:box:

[Nevermind]

For those booster packs I am pretty sure that you can only get them by spending points that you earn from practice and games. EA said that they couldn't be bought, which I know is surprising coming from EA.

[Twigg4075]

I would also like to add some crazy, over-the-top games that haven't sold well but are quality games:
Mad World
Vanquish
House of the Dead: Overkill

I am also very surprised that there is no demo available for Shadow of the Damned. For a new IP that doesn't seem to have any advertising, at least any that I've seen, it seems crazy not to give people a taste of the game.

That is very surprising and interesting. Although there has to be stuff in-game that they will try to encourage you to buy with real money.



I would also like to apologize to the listeners if it sounds like I'm not completely into this one. The decision to record gave me literally a few hours notice. When we did get started I had about an hour before I had to leave for work and the entire time I'm looking at the clock thinking there is no way we will finish in time. There is even a point where Brnt asks if I'm still there. LOL.

So again, I apologize if I wasn't my usual talkative, very opinionated self on this one.:stupidsmile:

[JayDizzle]

And yet you did fine. :ionno:

[Nevermind]

lol @ twigg's wife wanting a shout out.

[JayDizzle]

You guys seemed really subdued in this one. What happened? Did Maynard and co. bring you guys down?

Technically it was a rush job because I finished the Agenda at the last minute, Twigg had to go to work in an hour and I was hosting blind.

We had to restart once because I was rambling hard on the first take.

Hands down our least prepared podcast to date - and that's saying something. I guess we were just out to prove the haters right.

OMG I killed so Many Hookers to this song.....

Jay make the agendas a day in advance.

[Twigg4075]

Jay make the agendas a day in advance.

I would've rather have done it tonight or tomorrow but someone was gung ho to go last night so I went with it. I just show up when I'm asked.

And hey Brnt, what are your thoughts on El Shaddai? You only mentioned playing it.
