listening now, but it never came to my itunes so mp3 version

Cool!!! Let us know what you think...

The music was changed! I hope you all are happy now!!!

Oh, and leave an itunes review if you already haven't. We love reading them!

Ugh! WTF was with that terrible background music? It sounds like a an Asian melody band performing at some honky tonk in Alabama.

Why does iTunes takes so much to update?

Music is much better! and PacmanPolarbear, rest assured, I'm not a girl.

Listening to it now, Dave and Lono never accepted my friends invite, they just don't play PS3 often, and last time I checked Frawlz never accepted mine either.

Yeah, those two didn't accept me either :(

When will it be on iTunes?

Yay you put my rumors thing up.

Cool, my first shoutout. :D

Great podcast guys. The naming schedule is as follows 12:01pm Sunday - 7:59pm Friday, it's LatinLegacy. 8:00pm Friday to 12:00pm Sunday, it's LatinLover :thumbsup:

I doubt MS will have a new Xbox out before 2010. When 2010 hits, then I would expect one to be announced. There is no doubt that the sales of the 360 are slowing down with each passing month but it's still moving around 200,000 a month. It's not a great number but it's decent enough to stretch the life of the console a few more years at the least. It will be interesting to see what happens.

Me neither :(

...And iTunes STILL doesn't have it...

Listening to it now, Dave and Lono never accepted my friends invite, they just don't play PS3 often, and last time I checked Frawlz never accepted mine either.

When was the last time you were on???? Dude... check your friends list now.

I accepted you like a week ago. :heart::heart::thumbsup:

I am still Docblocked.

...And iTunes STILL doesn't have it...

Dave had some problems with the edit and doc had to go in and finnish it. It can take hours if not a day to show up on itunes.

I think it might have been the horrible background music that originally crashed daves computer.

yeah same with me

they all accepted mine

they all accepted mine

So not cool....

where is it?!?!?!? i dont see it on itunes!

Still not on iTunes...
Dang....

The cycle may go out of sync, but the fanboys will still remain, that bit you got spot on.

A new 360 would have to be something special I think to beat the ps3 at its full strength. has technology moved on enough that a new console could be significantly better then ps3 in stride. that's when the new console will be announced.

Although people will be wary of microsoft, making sure their console won't break every time you play it.

just downloaded it and i cant wait to listen to it! Left a review for you as well.

Still not on iTunes...
Dang....
Why can't you guys just download the mp3?

Why can't you guys just download the mp3?Typical Lazy gamers :p

It's on iTunes now!
BOOYAH! My day was almost ruined there....


Typical Lazy gamers :p

Well you know what? You're... just.....ugh..... (snore)

Why can't you guys just download the mp3?
Because you need Quicktime Pro to download it...

Anyway, I kinda liked some of the music.

Keyword: SOME.

You guys complained about the music... then left it up to Dave.

See what happends when you put the trained monkey in charge?

See what happends when you put the trained monkey in charge?It was better than the crappy metal that was playing in the previous shows. I could actually hear what you were saying.

Now that you can hear what I was saying... are you going to still listen to the show... lol

It was better than the crappy metal that was playing in the previous shows. I could actually hear what you were saying.

I don't know about that. I liked the older music, now it's just to quiet to judge it.

I liked the guitar songs that were played in the earlier episodes, they needed to just lower the volume a tad.

now it's just to quiet to judge it.

.
That's why it's called background music.

That's why it's called background music.

You misunderstood me. It's so quiet it's almost pointless to bother with it.
It makes it easier to hear the feedback and echoes from the mics as well.

What's this BBC game I keep hearing?

Nice show, I didn't really notice the change in the background music...I guess it's because I don't pay too much attention to it.

Guys, the show was late to iTunes because the show wasn't done being edited on time (ask Dave) and it was given to be to post literally 6 minutes before I was headed to the coast for a weekend-long camping trip. I posted the show to the website super-speedy-quick but forgot to add the tags that'd update the podcast feed (and iTunes).

As chance would have it, one of my buddies camping with us (we got a group site and had a whole bunch of friends camp together) had his laptop with a Verizon wireless card on it and to show me how well it worked, we checked out SarcasticGamer.com from the middle of the forest... and I saw what had happened... and fixed it, while sitting at a picnic table... in (as I said before) the forest. It was a bit weird. Anyway, hopefully the delay won't happen again (anytime soon.)

The music really changed? :lol:

You had a wifi connection in the middle of the forest!?

You had a wifi connection in the middle of the forest!?

Yup. Well, okay, so... maybe the edge of the forest. It was one of those cards that pulls internet over a cell signal.

I didn't hear the backround music......

i loved the letter

Thanks for the shout-out guys, means alot!

you loved the letter????

Ok... atleast we found one person who did.

lol make that two! I really want to hear the rest of it, but I don't want to bother PmPB with an e-mail... I AM NOT WORTHY!

:lol:

haha... send him another email asking for it....

I'll just block it out... some how.

I read the letter to myself at night to go to sleep... *ZING*

But then I dreams of dancing zombies...

Pacman, please don't try and do the arnie rumour thing again @ 20.59 LOL

... you sound like you are throwing up / gagging or some thing nasty. Just wrong...

At that particular moment, I'm pretty sure he had Frawlz in his... oh I can't do it... that's wrong on SO many levels... :lipssealed:

I even considered sending Pacman an E-mail because I think that in the next episode you probably forget about the letter, or you are going to burp again when he is trying to read it.

i have a feeling that the end of that letter will never find the light of day....

What about the soft glow of a computer monitor?
(e.g. post it up here)

Great show guys as always. I finally got a chance to listen to it work on Monday. Happy Crystal Anniversary! My only complaint is there wasn't enough "Weeeees."
I need more "Weeeees" in my podcast!

Good Podcast. To answer the question about the bet I honestly think Killzone 2 SHOULD out sell LBP, but doubt that it will.

Expand on that, what do you mean by it "should" outsell LBP? You mean because Sony has invested millions upon millions of dollars into Killzone 2 and it's been in development for years longer and has hundreds of people working on it? Or because it's a shooter and not a cutesy game? :wink2:

Did you just make an argument for Kill Zone 2?

No, he offered nothing to back up his statement... if he was clueless I was going to at least offer him SOMETHING to come back with. ;)

But seriously, from a financial standpoint, Sony had better hope KZ2 sells PHENOMENALLY well because at one point it was rumored to be crossing the $60M mark and that was... well... last year.

Just like LBP has been in production for who knows how long? That comparison made no sense.

I am just not a LBP fan and feel Kill Zone 2 is a better game, therefore say it should but doubt it will, considering everyone else is a fan. Which I understand...

they all accepted mine

So not cool....

yep, yamster, frawlz, dave and lono have all accepted me it must be because of the fact that i am the greatest. (i write as i wat for all these people to block me)
