Good show though, Portal bit way well good.

But I gotta say guys – I think you were a bit generous with the Crackdown 2 review. Yeah it’s a fun game and that – but it’s essentially Crackdown 1, you could play the 30 minute demo infinitely and THAT is basically the whole game/story!

Anyway, good show – make more you lazy fuckers!

That was rather good.

Another cracking episode, Mentazm’s review of Demon Souls NEEDS a Mogwai backing track. Let’s face it, if they’re willing to soundtrack a film about Zidane then they can surely supply something for Ian.

Krystal is obviously better at Alan Wake than I was, I kept running out of ammo all the bloody time hence the combat pissed me off most of the time.

Alex scares me, please make me aware if I’m ever in the same room as that man.

This concept is fantastic, and I would love to see it reach fruition. Fruition is such a good word; it’s reads like “fruit”, but has an edge like a Christopher Nolan film. What was I saying?

Right!

Do this. Please do this.

Me personally, I would love to contribute in any way that I can. At my core I’m a composer, and the first thing that really catches my attention in any game demo, trailer, film, clip — anything — is the music. Music is crucial at setting the proper tone and emotion in your production.

I remember a clip from a show I used to watch in my childhood called Reading Rainbow where they played a clip of a crocodile entering a bog two different times: once with menacing and dark music, the next with very comical circus music.

Forgive me my rant. With Facebook limiting you to 420 characters and Twitter imposing a measly 140 characters it’s nice for a change to have considerable space to stretch my syllables. At any rate, that’s what I came here to say. That and I enjoy the everloving shite out of your podcast, and believe me, there’s a lot of shite to everlove out.

@Jimmy Hello! Thanks for liking the chat! There are a few folks that aren’t sold on the sketches, that’s cool. We won’t stop doing them though, particularly because they’re the most enjoyable part of the show to make and, well, this is our hobby… As far as increasing our output goes, we’ve become quite relaxed about it to be honest. Each episode takes up a lot of time (even without the pre-recorded bits, you’d be surprised!) and if we did a fortnightly schedule I’d basically never see my kids. Or eat.

Also, in all honesty the majority of people seem to like the skits. Having said that, you might be pleased to know that the next episode won’t contain any because we had no room for them (there’s going to be some stuff we recorded at the Crackdown 2 wrap party in Dundee, assuming I can piece together something listenable from the drunken shrapnel currently sitting on my hard drive)

Thanks very much for your feedback all the same, it’s much appreciated.

Looking forward to ep2
