The Mystic Pillow Episode

We're trying to cushion the blow at the following link.

Which blow, we're not exactly sure. Maybe it's the awful truth about Catherine, though it might be the awful truth about beer. It might also be the inevitable, annual dread of the fourth-quarter. Maybe it's Origin. Whatever it is, we won't be held responsible for any misunderstandings, mispronunciations, overdrafts or backlashes. We've got guilt enough as it is.

About halfway through the episode. Your short talk about Shepard gender made a lot of sense. I think the bottom line is exactly what James said: it's gotten too much attention. Shepard gender elitism is dumb.

Also, you probably got several messages by now - maybe even by the end of the recording - but the DSi had no GBA slot. That was the first fumble before even the 3D push. They took away functionality without providing enough new value to make up for it. The "i" never became a big part of the experience, so you were left with a DS with a slightly better screen and no GBA support.

I love the GBA functionality of my DSLite. I actually have more GBA games than DS games at present. And I still play Link to the Past at least once every 2 months because of it.

Great Show Guys!

Just finished listening, always a joy to listen to while I drive from work. I got to add my game that I would love to play all over again, and that would be "Super Metroid", man that game absolutely amazed me, especially after playing metroid 2 on the game boy, where I am probably the only person in the world that actually enjoyed that game

.

Again cheers for a great podcast, keep it up!

Umm this is probably me just being lazy but what time do you guys do the live show? I just have to work it out for NZ time.
