I believe there was an adequate amount of Lono in this podcast. Excellent work.

Why isn't Rothbart ever on the podcast? Is his voice not suited for radio?

Wait who's this Lono guy?

Ok now on to the podcast.

Wii: I got my Wii in Feb. and stop playing it around March. I just went to trade it in (At Gamestop, Not Microcenter) and before I even got my money (Well in store credit for a DS) someone called it and planned on buying it. There's still demand but I think its dying down.

Halo Jesus/Zero Pun.: I love the Halo Jesus and drink the Bungie Kool Aid but I loved that British guy that did that review. It was great. Haloz is teh PwN.

Video on Wends.: I know what it is. Bad Game except its about Halo 3 all by Lono. (We need more fuel for the Lono Bashing fire *I kid Lono*)

Please noooooo, I know I wasted $6 isn't that bad enough! Just don't pull my gamertag away from me!!!

I bought the 3 song pack just for Ace of Spades and I only have played it like 6 times, so I payed $1 per play for the most part.

I got screwed over!

I don't even think that I will even get rockband... but for surely no GH3

Great show, guys. The Lono promo was amazing.

I personally love the Wii. However I'm not much of a fan of the third party games...yet. I say this because most of them are uninspired and gimicy. I think better ones will come out in time once people start thinking outside the box. Until then I'll be playing the Nintendo titles and the VC.

To back you guy's point up though, I am only able to find maybe 30-60 minutes to play once or every other day. I think the Wii is perfect for that. As soon as my time frees up (propably when I move back to the States), I am totally rebuying a 360. I think the Wii is a great second console for the hardcore or a good primary one for a casual gamer.

Oh, and the Princess Bride has one of the best sword fights in film history. Girl movie my ass. HA!

hmm...needed more lono, topped with some lono, because I could still hear people talking that weren't lono.

I have a wii, I play it. anyway the main reason I got a wii is for SSBB and a couple of other games. Besides I am a big nintendo fan, probably one of the biggest on the site

Whats up with the X-box 360 fish tanks? Just wanted to say that i really like sarcastic gamer joining gamercast. It has really opened up a forum for video game network. and please leave lono alone before someone does a chris crocker parody about his ass. I dont know if i could handle that.

can we have the lono parody as a standalone cause there were a lot of laughs when it was played. You guys should put it with the parody vids

dave, tomb raider is not a chick flick. tomb raider is nothing more, and never will be anything other than bad. just bad, you can leave it at that.

terrible will also suffice.

Right, I'm sorry, but I've got some criticisms for Lono.
1. The Zero Punctuation review was funny. I thought it was kinda half-assed, but whatever. Its that guys job to "meh" good games.
2. I take offense to the statement "Bungie couldn't get Halo 3 to run smoothly at 720p". It's a lie. Bungie responded to this. Go to their site and read their response. You'll notice that a) Halo runs on two frame buffers. Most games run on just one, b) Bungie chose that resolution, it wasn't because they couldn't get it to run on a different one, and c) putting one and two together means that Halo does run in HD, with 1280 combined pixels, and this was done on purpose to increase efficiency.
3. You did say that Halo 3 was a 9.5, and that "Anybody who says that Bioshock sucks, or that Halo sucks is just doing it for the attention."
That's enough of that.
Loved the rest of the podcast. The "Where's Lono" part will go down as one of my favorite moments.

ahh, I was gonna listen to it (again) this morning, but my ipod has metaphorically committed suicide. My ipod is to living as halo jesus is to bad. In case your not good with analogies that translates to my ipod is dead and halo rules.

I think all the awesomness that is lono made my ipod explode.

ok, shoot.

1. The Zero Punctuation review was funny. I thought it was kinda half-assed, but whatever. Its that guys job to "meh" good games.

You've obviously never seen any of his reviews. He has said that people like the reviews that he does where he rips games apart, but he did call Bioshock a candidate for Game of the Year. So, go back and take a look at his other reviews. But that's not the point really, i just used that as an example of where someone called Halo Jesus average and people went crazy mad about it, which i find to be ridiculous.

2. I take offense to the statement "Bungie couldn't get Halo 3 to run smoothly at 720p". It's a lie. Bungie responded to this. Go to their site and read their response. You'll notice that a) Halo runs on two frame buffers. Most games run on just one, b) Bungie chose that resolution, it wasn't because they couldn't get it to run on a different one, and c) putting one and two together means that Halo does run in HD, with 1280 combined pixels, and this was done on purpose to increase efficiency.

If bungie could have, they would have. that games got more jaggies than bulletwitch.

3. You did say that Halo 3 was a 9.5, and that "Anybody who says that Bioshock sucks, or that Halo sucks is just doing it for the attention."
That's enough of that.

I never said anything bad about halo. I never said it was a bad game. Never said it was a crap game, heck I never even called it average. Not once. So what's your point?


Thanks for the response.

To Lono:
1. I'll admit, I haven't seen his other reviews, so I'll take your word for it.
2. Why wouldn't they be able to? They certainly had access to people who could have made it happen.
3. This last one was a bit of nitpicking. Sorry. Bad habit.
PS, the "That's enough of that" was meant to lead into the next section, not to refer to the comments before it.

Also, I was wondering, why hasn't anyone brought up the armor permutations (a positive thing) or the achievements (a negative)?

Ala Douche
10-11-2007, 10:55 AM
why in god's name would you take offense to the fact that he said halo 3's resolution wasn't up to par? disagree with it sure, but you take offense to that? come on man.

I would like to say, the Zero Punctuation review guy says that he did not play the multiplayer (or something to that effect). How can you review Halo 3 and not talk about multiplayer? Its arguably the best part...and I agree. Therefore I think the Zero Punctuation review is unconvincing, and not too far from irrelevant.

P.S.
I wonder if Dave in reality zings all the guys around but then the show is just edited down to make it look like he's the victim of the rest of the guys ganging up on him. I'd bet thats the case. ;)

I love the show guys, only show I know like it, very unique. That minute thing is funny. I cant remember everything from the podcast because I listened to it on my way to school, at like 530 in the morning, very good show.

Its amazing how Nintendo are trying to make the shortage seem real and failing XD

Thought the show was great! It seems that it gets even better and better. I have to agree that if I get Guitar Hero or Rock Band, bottomline, it's a money issue. GH3 is $60 less. I could by another game with that. Also, im really upset (:mad:) about the shortage of Wiis. I can't seem to find ikt anywhere online. The shortage must be true. I'll probably end up buying it on BizRate or Ebay. Can't wait till next podcast!
