Thanks

ZEBRA NINER @ Jun 23rd 2008 7:16PM

w00t! I'll have to listen for the reference, but on first glance, mansplosions doesn't really sound too good. Is that an explosion of man? Because... yeah.

Mr Cool @ Jun 23rd 2008 8:04PM

I was thinking the exact same thing.

Seriously, mansplosion? I gotta use that more often ;)

emirabal @ Jun 23rd 2008 7:22PM

john paul @ Jun 23rd 2008 8:17PM

There's 14 chapters in Ninja Gaiden 2, not 13.

Richard Mitchell @ Jun 23rd 2008 9:41PM

Huh. I thought it was 13. Means I have more to go, I guess.

Jayslacks @ Jun 24th 2008 8:44AM

I almost, almost sold NG2 on half.com. The endboss...my god. But I couldn't do it. I love it that much Richard....

Richard Mitchell @ Jun 24th 2008 11:59AM

Just finished it myself. That boss streak at the end is ridiculous.

john paul @ Jun 23rd 2008 8:47PM

Alexander has an amazing British accent!

Baligouxji @ Jun 23rd 2008 10:34PM

A. Dustin comes up with the best made up words.

B. Seriously, Some one use Richard's Civ. smack talk in some sort of segment opening musical theme introduction jingle.

C. Richard, I love the X-files too. It runs from 4:00 P.M to 5:00 P.M. (A single episode) on week days on the sci-fi channel... or at least it did. (I haven't watched it in the last few weeks)

SoL @ Jun 23rd 2008 10:59PM

Dustin, actually chillout was from the xbox version of halo1, the maps that were from the pc version were danger canyon, death island , ice fields, gephyrophobia and the really huge one I can't remember the name of.

victor360hd @ Jun 24th 2008 1:13AM

ok tony montana Mitchell

Lewis (GT: StoneRevolver) @ Jun 24th 2008 7:09AM

SUPER GLAD I'm not the only one watching Pushing Daisies. I love that show. X3F = Win. For Life.

Tess @ Jun 24th 2008 9:13AM

Hey what was with all the snickering when Buffy was mentioned? That was a great show, fantastic writing!

Wicked funny Fancast. Though a bit dangerous to listen to when playing a game. I was laughing so hard a couple times that I wasn't paying attention to what I was doing and died.
