Well, good news Pacman

I got to play the demo for Resistance Retribution today, and one of the bugs you mentioned wasn't there anymore (the titans blowing up together one)

Oh and the naked chicks were still there :tongue:

Yeah, I don't know if what he said was true... but I was like... are you kidding me?? I haven't got to play Resistance 2 yet. Now I am kinda bummed.

What did you guys think of this episode?

Rothbart said exactly what I would have said to Pacman

"I can see you're excited, you've been talking more than you have the last 20 episodes"

The conversation was like

"And then we saw..."
5 minutes of Pacman saying how awesome it was.

"After that we went to..."
5 minutes of Pacman saying how it's the best thing ever.

It was kind of weird, as he doesn't do that in normal episodes. He must have been really excited. :roll:

good episode guys! It's easy to tell that everyone is more comfortable recording in the same room. loved it!

For the record....Frawlz was the one that kept bringing the Mormon thing up! And I quote "hey dogsdieinhotcars, what do Mormons think about Jews?" lol...hilarious.

and don't pretend you didn't love listening to Panda Watch...it's ma baby...what can I say, I'm a proud daddy! =P

What did you guys think of this episode?

I thought the show was great. What a difference it makes with sound quality when all three of you gents record in the same room. The show also had me laughing my ass off! The "infected" joke kept me laughing for a quite some time yesterday while at work. Keep up the great podcasts guys.

Dave let us run with the recording. It was funny... we kept looking back and seeing if we were going over time (40min) and he said to keep going.

You were right, the sound quality was much better with all of us in the same room. We have pictures of the podcast, if Roth ever decides to upload them. lol

Dodsdie... The breakfast was one of my highlites of the trip. i am happy we all got to meet up. I didn't keep bringing up Mormans. Ok, maybe I did. I mean, what does a Morman do in Vegas? lol... For the record I voted to Mitt Romney.

I am also a huge fan of the Panda Watch Podcast. I was... and you know it is true... I laughed my ass off at the Lesley interview. It was awesome.

Pacman was a little excited. The guy was wearing 8 shirts. Who wouldn't be excited about that?

I am really loving the fact that you guys are into this show. The show is so much more then just 3 guys sitting around talking abot the PS3. The listeners are just as much a part. So keep leaving those reviews, and pass the show along to some friends.

So what else did you like... or didn't like???

...So what else did you like... or didn't like???

I think that this episode was the best. Not because of the fact that it sounded better, but because all of you where interacting better due to being in the same room and also because all of you had the same experience and where able to keep it going, so all of you where in perfect sync.

Also, Rothbart you said that you where sure there was a place that had a ton of burned lights since you did not see any in the strip. There actually is a place, is called The Neon Graveyard or The boneyard and is in VEgas. Here is a link. (http://www.neonmuseum.org/boneyard.html)

Edit: This episode was something really quite special. It was funny as hell and as it's already been pointed out you guys just seemed to be a lot tighter being in the same room. There was a couple of times when I laughed my arse off in the canteen at work making me look quite psychotic... but whatever.

Looking forward to the next episode already.

I really enjoyed this episode - great to hear you guys all together in one room. One thing I did notice more this episode though - Roth and Frawlz cannot let PMPB talk without interrupting him with "eh" and all the Canadian accent piss-taking. It's a good job you've never heard me talk, because I wouldn't get a word out without having sad fake English accents blarted out over me.
Anyway, great show and I don't care about having R-2 ending spoiled. I would have thought that a Mormon would have reacted to Las Vegas like Damien entering a church. Shouldn't they be unable to cross the city limits line?

The funniest part though was that I couldn't make eye contact and concentrate... I think all three of us were looking away from everyone else when we were actually talking... I didn't want it to turn into a laugh-fest, so to stay on task, had to stare into nothingness (which ironically is what I do when I record by myself... I don't read or do anything, only glancing at the agenda as topics wind down.)

I just found that dynamic to be funny. A great show because we were together not looking at each other... LOL. :lol:

You can clearly see four here, but he had two long sleeve shirts on...

For the record, I think that's Pacman's audio track in the purple... virtually non-stop talking! :lol:

UPDATE: Oh yeah, I totally left Vegas with this sign...

Well, it's cold in Canada, he's prepared :lol:
