Even Hurricane Ike couldn’t stop us from putting out Episode 20 of the Sarcastic Gamer Playstation Podcast… is just contributed to its tardiness.* If it helps, just think of it as PacManPolarBear’s contribution to the episode… extra tardiness!* Okay, enough PMPB bashing before the episode even starts, in this episode we discussed:



Introductions (Frawlz announces with confidence this show will be released on time… Shyeah!)
Rothbart pulls a PacManPolarBear
Frawlz/Rothbart “bet” update
Extra Life Charity Event October 18th, and calling out Playstation Nation Podcast guys

EyePet beat out Eight Days?!?!
Penny Arcade’s XBLA game making its way to PSN this year
Life with Playstation coming soon (okay, at the time of posting this show, it’s actually out…)
Frawlz is a Folding@home n00b…
Sony’s Yoshida proclaims LBP to be the biggest PS3 title of the year
PSN Cards coming to Blockbuster, 7-11, and RiteAid (at the time of posting this show, Blockbuster has $20 and $50 PSN cards, nation wide)
The Last Guy scored really well, Frawlz complains about a $10 game that can be beaten over a weekend.* Does a games rating directly relate to its price:length ratio?
Sony loses Singstar Exec Paulina Bozek as she leaves to go work with Phil Harrison at Atari

Thanks for the shoutout guys, 4 star cause.....well I don't remember, I wrote in the review why, maybe cause the original SGpodcast got 5 so you can't have their status of godhood just yet, jk who knows, great show though.

I bite my tongue every time I read a review or comment that can't rate us for what we do, but instead compare us to the Red show as some form of feedback. The shows are different... by different people discussing different things.

TylDurden

agreed, I also don't have a PS3 and am highly disappoited in sony this generation so its hard to gut the corporate ass kissing. your still the second best podcast out there.

Okay, okay, I sent you some Resistance limericks. Three, actually. Read them at your own risk. :p What were the prizes for winning again?

When are the good SG podcasts going up?







I kid, I kid. It's just not considered a real podcast when one of your members doesn't even own the main topic of discussion, and that same said member doesn't even have the internet. It makes me ashamed to be Canadian. :p

Seeing us at PAX... YOU ALREADY WON PLOOGLE!!! Congrats! :lol:

Actually it's a Resistance Retribution hat (a cool one.)

It makes me ashamed to be Canadian. :p

I've noticed shame over being Canadian quite a few times recently from others too... is there a self-esteem problem up North we don't know about? Is it contageous?!?!

Oooooh...I don't wear hats, but hats are good! They're good...

...and good...I guess...? :tongue:

It's generally because we are represented here by PMPB. If he was your ambassador at Sarcastic Gamer you'd be ashamed too.

PacMan, the word is with, not wif. :p

Yeah... our recordings have stayed on schedule.

That's not really a good thing though, especially in terms of news.

We'll be listening to next weeks podcast with last weeks news. New listeners will think you guys are just really behind the times (because let's face it, a week is an eternity in internet time).

I think you should release both episodes at the same time, or release 21 a day after 20, something to that effect. That way you can at least keep yourselves current.

I can now say:
PSP Beats out Red. I found this way more interesting then Red.
blue beats red!!!

rothbart
09-18-2008, 04:19 PM
:lol: You're a week ahead:lol:!Well at least you'll never be late!

No, not a week ahead. We record on Tuesday and the show posts either late Thursday or first thing Friday. So the show that may come out tonight was recorded less than 48 hours ago from right now.

release 21 a day after 20, something to that effect. That way you can at least keep yourselves current.

I think that's the plan. It all comes down to Dave's backlog... he's editing all the shows right now...

Frawlz
09-18-2008, 04:45 PM
Hmmm... there might be another show tomorrow!!!

Wow... 2 days of sarcasm!

I'm still demanding that Rothbart says my name properly.

Don't judge the limricks yet!

I just gotta type mine up (It ROX teh hardcorz... sorry)!
Thanks for the shout-out Pacman.
I think it's my very first! (Well, Rothbart called me JARR once...)

Blame it on iTunes if I did... it just randomly takes names and cuts them off with "..." like I might be Rothb... how in the heck am I supposed to know what's missing?

ok... the music in this podcast just makes it sound like we are about to get it on!!!

It also reminds me of the intro of the old tv show Roseanne.

It is soooo bad. Dave... please no more blues!!

FakePlasticTree
09-18-2008, 10:38 PM
It is pretty bad. I don't know who does the music, but I'd rather listen to Soulja Boy than that tune...and I REALLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYYYY despise Soulja Boy.


Funny episode though. I look forward to episode 21 tomorrow. ;)

I do not submit that much lol. Just two letters but if you guys are attempting to give off the image of me being a huge supporter of the show, then I'll accept that =P. I have yet to submit my limrick. It's already done. Just making sure it sounds as good as I can make it =P.

I kind of expected to hear that there are no submissions to the contest. It didn't surprise me at all.

But I have no idea what would I do with the hat if I'd win it, because 80% of the hats I try on at stores are to small for me. So there's a big chance I'd have to ebay it.

Frawlz, i understand your apprehension to accept ign's review of the last guy. perhaps it was overrated, perhaps not. but comparing it to mgs4 or uncharted is a bit extreme. i don't think anyone will compare a game available on the PSN to the high end triple A titles. i think that 9.0 is relative to the other games available on the PSN, there's really no way to compare the two types of games.

superstardust, wipeout, pixeljunk(s), bionic commando rearmed. these are all great titles on the PSN. they can't hold a candle to the big boys (mgs, uncharted, resistence etc.) but more importantly, no one is saying that they can.

I kind of expected to hear that there are no submissions to the contest. It didn't surprise me at all.

You guys are so "all or nothing"... before yesterday, there were ZERO submissions... in the last 24 hours, we've had a TON of submissions! Some of them are goofy, some are hilarious, and some actually sound like limericks! :lol:

I was a bit concerned for the contest, but it's panned out. I only hope people keep submitting top-notch Resistance limericks (a couple people forgot to write about Resistance.)

PenKaizen
09-19-2008, 11:45 AM
I just did a resistance limerick
its tune is rather simplistic
I really hope i win
Or else it would be a sin
If somebody grabbed that hat and nicked it

=DDDDDD

Nice podcast guys better than red show imo =)

whats up with the music in this one...? it's like blues or jazz or something

Jarrett

My limerick will be sent tomorrow.

Look forward to it; it mentions PMPB on your head...

I would send you guys a limerick but I've never played any of the Resistance games.

in the itunes review you called out "tyler dirden"
i don't have i-tunes, but is he from coneticut (i'm not sure if it tells you location), because if he is i do believe he is a tyler dirden i used to know, he moved from my school in england to the US. Tyler, if you use the forums message me.

Sounds like a great topic for a limerick! (no fair submitting this one that took about 90 seconds to write...)

I've not played Resistance at all
Its sequel is out in the fall
If I were to try it,
I really might like it
But my wallet won't like it at all

Frawlz
