Episode 26 - Whether OOHLALA or OOHLALA or OOHLALA or OOHLALA

This week, with our good friend Max Skelton, we talk about OJ, Iron Patriot, GTA: 'Sans Andreas', GTA IV, Maltesers, The Simpsons Movie, 'lieutenant', milk (correction: 'milk' in polish is 'mleko'. I am a bad person), Max Payne 3 (and a short history of Rockstar games), and import games. We read some poetry, have two seperate instances of technical difficulties (sorry...) and attempt to struggle through stip-stiggidy story time. We talk about GAME, the PS Vita (and LittleBigPlanet Vita), 38 Studios' closure, we put Maltesers in our noses, discuss Because We May, talk about storing beach equipment up our arses, Jet Set Radio and Assassin's Creed 3 headed to Vita, a new Star Wars game, Tony Hawk HD's soundtrack (and why their recent games have failed), and Diablo 3 becomes more popular than being Scottish. We discuss the flaws of online gaming, XCOM, and a final dose of poetry with General von Worthingtonfotherfordshire the 13th-and-a-half.

If you're going to put candy in your nose, Maltesers are, while somewhat unpleasant, a relatively safe bet. Their size stops them from causing blockages or permanent damage while still being an enjoyable nasal challenge.

Episode 24 - Multi-Ball

This week, on an especially chaotic episode, we're joined by Max Skelton and discuss flight mode, snacks, Captain Morgan, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Oobisoft, balls, all-you-can-eat Pizza Hut, and the IGN AU Starhawk Black Beta. We then delve into stip-stiggity story time: Bioshock Infinite is delayed, LittleBigPlanet Vita beta is announced, Sony's shares fall to a 31-year low, Mojang boycott E3 (and we piss off our legion of Swedish fans), a $99 Xbox Three Hundred and Sixty confirmed, Internet Explorer is headed to Xbox... and then we trail off into a discussion about Bing, Charlize Theron, porn parodies, serial killers, sex pistols, Fez, story vs. gameplay, Japanese RPG characters, Psychonauts, SSJ Industries' CEO John C. Pendleton, and something about "a dick that looks like a pinball table". Then we rap things up with a few songs. Lovely.

Episode 23 - Everything's Better on a (joy)Stick

This week, we talk about Scotland, impressions, states of matter, jelly wrestling, beef jerky, bush-dwellers, sleeping in the doghouse, Free Comic Book Day, A Very Spider-Man 9/11, kidnapping prostitutes, Uncharted: Golden Abyss, GTA: San Adreas, Rinth Island, and IGN's upcoming Starhawk Black Beta. Then, stip-stiggity-story time hits like a ton of bricks: Skyrim's "Dawnguard" DLC, The Elder Scrolls Online, Dead Island: GOTY edition?, Draw Something buying our souls (and the reanimation of Colonel Sanders), Mythic: The Story of Gods and Men Kickstarter scandal, The Unfinished Swan announced for PSN, Saints Row the Third's "Enter the Dominatrix" DLC, and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Black Ops 2. Also, the dastardly Wine Pocket returns, which causes things to take a serious downturn pretty damn quickly.

One pizza is probably enough pizza but if you want to have more pizza but you feel like people will think bad things about the amount of pizza you're eating there's a pretty good chance that you're hanging out with the wrong kind of people because in the scheme of things it shouldn't really matter to anyone how much pizza you eat unless it's seriously affecting your health in which case they probably only want what's best for you and if it's gotten to such a serious point where your friends are worried about your health then it's probably way harder for them to work up the courage to say something about it to you then it would be for you to forgo whatever other pizza you were thinking about having but I suppose at the end of the day the decision is really up to you and you shouldn't let other people determine your future for you if you can avoid it!
