(http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=260079519) Much obliged. Oh, by the way… HEY! What’s wrong? Why haven’t you taken our QUICK podcast survey (http://www.podtrac.com/audience/start-survey.aspx?ver=1&pid=pKGDw9NEEq8$) yet? Thanks for the Diggs!

I'd feel way awkward in that type of interview. It'd be cool if you got the job though. It's a great thing to work near videogames, when they are one of your main hobbies!

Err.. so the podcast got a little sidetracked huh? Well as long as it's in the (vague) context of videogames :]

Edit: now that I think about it, maybe it was just the fact that GTA4 came out and Dave got his 360 back, but Dave, you seemed more.. (hmm how shall i put this) involved in this podcast. More... talkative. The whole interview part aside though. Good stuff.

I'm in the same boat as Doc. I don't exactly have 60 bucks laying around, so maybe in a few weeks I'll playswitch it or something. I doubt anyone is going to give it up, but a girl can dream.

I'm still waiting for more news on the magical new third podcast.

My iTunes is yet to pick up the podcast, anyone else had this problem so far? :/

Edit: Thanks for that DeathByWaffle, I did as you said.

Great show guys, the only thing which had annoyed me about GTA is the brakes on the cars are god awful, they just don't work..

Don't worry lono.. I'll be editing my posts to add information instead of posting again so you can stop saying I only post 1 sentence posts..

My iTunes is yet to pick up the podcast, anyone else had this problem so far? :/

My iTunes never picks it up for a day or so after one is released, so I just download the mp3. It took a couple tries for me to get it to work this time, but it worked in the end.

Lono...
GTA IV is not boring lol try multiplayer..

I played it and it's a blast! Single player is a bit underwhelming, at the beginning of the game, like I said.

The beginning of the game is boring. That was what I said. I know people are going to quote me out of context, so let me be clear:

The beginning of the game is boring.

Everyone got it?

Welcome back to LIVE Dave and good luck with CC.

I guess I was correct in correcting you guys that Monopoly would be $40 and may not even be online multiplayer.
What the heck is that about?
Who would pay $40 to play Monopoly on the TV with people in their own house?
If they're there, break out the actual board game ($10.99) and fight over who will be the race car.

Great show guys and good luck on the Job Dave. Also Lono the first date misson, you can pretty much skip it completly by pressing the button to leave during the bowling.

Could you repeat that?

Nuh uh man, that Top Hat and Thimble combined to make the Himble rule over all.

Great show guys. Scary Dave went to try to get a job

Got it :thumbsup:

I blast ho's with my rocket. :evil:

for some reason when ever I try to get the HDUD for this week on Itunes its only giving me the first 3 seconds same when I download the MP3.

I actually enjoyed the beginning of GTA IV. They are just breaking you in & using that slow approach. Since there are people that GTA IV is there very first GTA game. I can respect that approach. The cut scenes & dialog completely made up for it either way =).

tsk tsk. Disappointed to hear you find GTAIV Boring Lono.

Awaiting further impressionnsss!!!!!

You can turn off auto aiming so you can hold the trigger the whole way and it will still go into free aim. Just letting you know.

great show guys!

and lono's right, I've been playing for a good half an hour and I still don't have a gun!

Just got to 24% complete(13 hours) and I'm finally wearing some nice threads, driving a pimp'd car, and carrying my piece of choice.

Q: Why would someone take time off work to play GTA IV?
A: GRAND THEFT AUTO IV 100% CLUB CONTEST (http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/events/)
The one week challenge begins with GTA IV's official release on April 29th. Club members who complete 100% of the game will have their achievement commemorated by being awarded a coveted 'key to the city".

Once you get to about 10% complete, you start getting guns and stuff.
I'm at 18% right now myself though.

Wait wait, are we talking about the beginning of the game?

sorry can never resist temptation... sorry..

Yeah, Lono, you're not being incredibly clear...

Unclear statements never won in court. :D

Dave-

Congrats on the job interview. Having said that, and I'm really not trying to discourage you, just trying to help out since you seem like a nice guy... do not work for Circuit City. That is one terribly managed company that is driving itself into the ground through its own stupidity. I know you need to pay your bills like any other responsible adult, but don't trust those people.

Full disclosure: Yes, I am a disgruntled ex-employee.
