The unthinkable happened. Lono got a PS3. Of course he kept his opinions on his new hardware to himself, rather than rush to judgement right? If you believe that you’ve probably never listened to our show. Here’s a loose outline of what went down in Episode 32. We’re a tad late getting this out…. sorry.

Sorry for the tardiness...

@ Lono: i believe that they are going to update a patch(1.3) in a couple of weeks,

New VOIP Options:
We have also received a lot of feedback about VOIP stuff. There were a couple of features that players really wanted, and hopefully this gives them a big chunk of their crazy, crazy VOIP desires.

We now allow players to select between PTT and Open-Mic. Players can also tune the voice-activation level so they don’t accidentally broadcast their girlfriend or boyfriend blabbering-on in the background. Players also now get to more clearly see who’s talking. It’s displayed on the right side of the screen. And yes, the picture below is correct. We also now support an “all-talk” server option so that you can enable cross-team trash talk.

Oh I'm fine with you posting it, but orange on white is REALLY obnoxious to read.

"PS3 with a falcon chip" - Lono lol Freudian slip?

About Sins of a Solar Empire -- when pirated, you can't play online, due to the fact that it has a key you need to register, like every other PC game. Since the game has no singleplayer game (other than AI), you have a huge reason to buy.

Some reason the episode wont download on itunes for me and i tried the mp3 and it doesnt work either is it only me or any one else?? i rellay want to hear it.

Dave- the 360 DLC isn't coming out till next fall at the earliest :P

And how much will Microsoft decide to charge people for it :tongue:

Sounds like somehting on your end man. Just checked iTunes and its working fine for me..... Maybe the server was busy??!? Try again.

I too have tried to download it but when the it tries to connect to media.libsyn.com it fails to connect there. And iTunes doesn't list the episode either.
I am in Finland Europe.

I did NOT hear Doc crying in the corner. Nope. Didn't hear it. But I did hear a slip up by Lono. For shame.

whoah...did anyone else notice all the swearing that didn't get bleeped? while you guys were talking about itunes reviews (which was hilarious by the way) you can hear F-bombs and S-words...

that was HILARIOUS!

Gamespot absolutely suck for reviews, they gave Lost Odyssey 7.5 :shocked:

Yey.. now I`m downloading episode 32 finally from Itunes=D.. I have almost gone crazy since it`s haven`t begin until now =o.. And I live in Norway..

Can`t wait too hear=D

Hey lono, just an fyi i heard you said the whole psn store isnt "user-friendly" and all but i do hope you know they have special sections where they show all the ps3 games and ps3demos, that way you dont have to go through it alphabetically...

YAY lono I have more respect for you know for having a ps3 also.

Hollister is the suck.

Umm btw for faster to see stuff is use the game tab and for demo look for newest or choose its genre.

Hey guys, awesome 32nd episode. I've been following since the first episode, but I now just took some initiative to get on the forums, it hurts not having ANY next gen console....

But anywho, I have to say I think Lono made the right choice in making his team. I too would rather win than lose with friends.... sorry Doc.

Another great episode! Coincidently, I got a PS3 this weekend, too...

good episode guys!

who's rothbart going to argue with now?:p

if lono picked Doc and dave he still stand a chance to win. Duck and Animathias would have most likey been on me and truth's team or start there own.I can't speak for them but it would seem it would go that way.We play together all the time and get along.

Great show guys,
Was late to listen this episode.

Lono's got a PS3? - Sweet it's BBQ time, I like my burgers well done!

In all seriousness though I will be very interested in how you get on with it coz, I am seriously thinking of getting a PS3 for the first time. Having seen some of the games coming in the next year, now in need of a Blu Ray player and am really losing my patience with my 360 being so unreliable.

Don't know how you can say Lair is a good game if you traded it in the same weekend you bought it.

Oh and its just coincidence that the podcast was late the weekend Lono gets a new toy.

Don't know how you can say Lair is a good game if you traded it in the same weekend you bought it.



I spent all day Saturday and a good chunck of Sunday playing it and beating it. It doesn't have much replay value, so I traded it.

Doesn't mean that I didn't absolutely love that game...

^But it does mean you loved it for less than two days. Hardly a long and lasting relationship. :tongue:

^But it does mean you loved it for less than two days. Hardly a long and lasting relationship. :tongue: I traded it with a friend (via playswitch) so I expect to get it back when he's done with it.

^ I didn't know that is how Playswitch worked - damn it thats even cooler, if only it came to uk. :angry:

Still you would never have swapped CoD4 within two days. Didn't you even keep Halo Jesus for longer than that?

all that was missing was "88 miles an hour"

great show fellas

I hade a brain meltdown trying to decipher what Lono was saying about the 360's going out of stock.

Hey, did we ever find out what happened with no one calling Dave "Fergie Ferg" on the podcast? I thought that was one of his punishments or something.

OMG!!! We forgot....The weird thing is... Dave hasn't complained about being called Fergie Ferg at all.

Maybe he likes it?

I never said it was the best game ever, just that I really liked it.

Well maybe people are confused and think it's two different people , maybe he's more popular as a writer now?

He can't be more popular. He isn't sponsored by bacon salt.:tongue:

Or maybe he's going with the old "ignore it long enough and it'll go away" mentality...in which case you should call him that for the next 5 podcasts! ;)

seconded.

Once again. A great episode!:P

:lipssealed:Fergie Ferg screwed up the editing in this episode. Lono said some naughty words that weren't edited out.:lipssealed:

nice job with the bleeping. (not)

He's a lawyer. He can get away with darn near anything. :lol:

It's true. :cool2:

Ive finally realised why your shows are 30mins. A perfect length for a 30min crossing to France on the Eurotunnel - the time flew by!

Loving Lono's impression of Animathius on COD aswell:lol:

Yep fergie ferg ftw.
