So after the hoopla in the comments of last week’s show, you decided not to include Roger in this episode? It’s a shame that opinion of one person ruined it for the rest of us.
Is he still going to be on future episodes? Is he getting his own show? What exactly is going on with him?
That said, I’m still expecting a good show this week. You guys are always brilliant!
Listen here meathead, our show is run on an availability basis, Roger was not available at the time of our recording and therefore was not on the show, it was not because of the comment fest on last week’s show. Perhaps if you actually read the comments from last week you’d see that he is not a regular guy due to school. If you listened to our shows prior, you’d know this. Thank you for enjoying us though
Hey dumbshit,he was on a 2 yr hiatus before last week to begin with,and he actually came to the show way after the site started. Hope you enjoy!
Ahh got it, lol. Sorry guys! My mistake! Well, either way, I still hope he’s able to be on soon with you guys. The kid is funny as hell.
Not to say you all aren’t, lol. Hell, if you all weren’t great to listen to, I wouldn’t be listening to the show in the first place!
if this episode sucks youll be hearin from me
why isnt roger on the show this sucks!
great show so far fellas, and I’d like to comment on what Keith said about the controls of RE5 which is pretty much what I said in my Demo review, verbatim…
The whole point is that they mentioned that there would be a “run and gun” feature…which would also allow you to aim and walk at the same time…
Uncharted: Drakes Fortune is an “action/adventure” game and features all of this stuff and offers even more like climbing over things….and I’m not saying that RE5 needs to have those exact same features, but why not allow the game to evolve by allowing more features instead copying RE4 with HD graphics?…
not to mention that they mentioned having a run and gun feature….and then saying it won’t be available…
it’s like saying you have a cure for AIDS and then saying, sike…we’ll keep things the way they are…
Well I didn’t know I said what you said, so…sorry?? I guess :\
joe really has no life…
…wow…so you offended me?…
I was addressing what you said….cut the arrogance, that’s my role…
“One of the best games of all time”….Gary, really? You really think RE5 is one of the best games of all time? I thinks thats big shoes to fill for a game that people seem to have a ton of complaints about.
No Don,I was confused when I read what u diest wrote,that’s why I wrote sorry with a “?”,cause I wasn’t sure how to respond. I thought you meant that I stole what you said or something. Big misunderstanding
What you first* ^
ohh, ok….nah I was saying that you pretty much quoted what I said…
Gary, you are going to be hearing from me next week! lol.
Saying that RE5 is one of the best games of all time…I’ve been playing it co-op all weekend with my roommate and I’ll have a lot to say about it come next week’s Vice Weekly, lol.
Aww shit, gary got called out
Look’s like the rest of the cast can take their headsets off next week…they wont be needing them.
Lol@Joe for improper use of an apostrophe. Then followed by the lack of one…
I’m going to have to get out my red pen now.
About DLC:
Yeah most developers cheat and give you a “code” to unlock the content that’s already on the disk, but the real purpose was genuine. The DLC idea sparked mainly due to the fact that game publishers pinch these game developers into a release date, and the project isn’t really ready to ship –be it a lack of content, or glitches. It was meant to allow the developer to add maps, campaign levels or whatever else in to a game that has already shipped. Doing so takes man-hours, and the time is used to develop the level layout, how it plays as well as all the scenery.
I’m not backing up these guys who are pumping out content that is half-hearted or is already on the disk! I’m just telling the other side of the story that I haven’t heard from the Broke Gamers. It’s something worth touching on. It also leads to the idea of how corporate entities have more of an effect on games today than other-gen gaming experiences.
I was just relistening to the show and heard something you guys need to work on. That would be the opening of the show. You guys sound like a bunch of robots “Im G3PO, human cyborg relations and this is my counterpart Mel2D2″….start the show with some fireeeeee you bums!
Im sure energy wont be a problem this week with RogRog Binks there but the rest of you need to bring that energy in the open. Uncle Owen wouldnt even buy you guys.
These arnt the droids were looking for………….move it along…move it along
Guerrilla Games also had a game called Shellshock Nam 67
lol,did you get tired of writing the full name so you write “Ur” now? anway, i didnt know GG did Shellshock, so thanks for the info. Also, yes, we do need that energy going into the show,thats a WIP.
