You burn CD's? You know iPods have existed for a couple of years... Even if you're broke or don't like being trendy you can get a knock off, and those play music data just as well, for the most part...

I like living in the stone age and I haven't seen any good enough deals on decent MP3 players to make me really want to buy one. I had some cheap POS one for a while and it died in about 3 months.

Before I tell you all what I think about Ryan posting this podcast so late I have to make something clear. I have an extremely I high standard for listening to podcast for fun. So... there is no reason for a podcast to have me wait extra hours for me to listen to it. There's is no reason.

Naw just kidding... excited to hear it.

Awesome! A insano Ryan Scott hate rant on Mark Millar! Haven't heard one since the 11/01/07 edition of GFW Radio!

I've already convinced myself the ending for Lost is gonna suck. That way when I do actually see the last few episodes, I'll be pleasantly surprised.

Ryan Scott mentions it on the podcast, and it appears!- the A-Team trailer!

As to be expected, EW's Doc Jensen has a wildly in-depth analysis (if you can call it that) of the Lost Last Supper picture.

And re:Desmond (using the spoiler tag, just in case)-
Spoiler: show
Henry Ian Cusick isn't a series regular for Season 6, but he will appear in some capacity. Here's what E!'s Kristin Dos Santos says about it.

Not enough hate for Zelda: Spirit Tracks for my liking. The worst Zelda since Phantom Hourglass. Why can't Nintendo just make a handheld Zelda without forcing the shitty controls down our throats?

About what Ryan talked about detective mode in Batman AA... this looks like a small trend going around right now.. the veil mode in Wolfenstein, eagle vision in Assassin's Creed 2, the PKE meter in Ghostbusters.. this is only from the games I've played recently.

I just wish there would be a smarter mechanic that wouldn't make me miss out on the original level design, instead I end up playing through a large part of the game in some sort of (insert your favourite meh colour) haze.

Good episode.

Since Higgins has a PS3 now and likes comics, you'd think he'd want to play inFamous. If Batman AA is the best comic game ever then inFamous is the 2nd best.

Wow, that's uncalled for man. I mean she said some pretty dumb and downright wrong stuff about Silent Hill:Shattered Memories in a couple cases during episode 43 but for the most part she's alright. Anyway saying something like that about anyone is just really immature man.

Anyway I hope Karen gets better soon.
