I don't understand why anyone would want to go to Manteca, even when the water slides were there. Place is garbage.

But so is most of the 209.

I hope that Brad gives Minecraft on the PC a shot. Just so he can see whats missing from the XBLA version since he said he never played the PC release.

I would also agree that if Volition were sold, Square would be the best for them as they would let them do their own thing. Just Cause 2 was great!

Orson Scott Card orsin' around.

We have reached a new low people.

edit: also I have no idea why Americans generally find mayonnaise to be weird/disgusting. It's only emulsified oil and egg yolk.

I like mayonnaise in reasonable amounts. Too much and it gets nasty, kinda like mustard.

I'd say that's the same for every condiment.

I find it kind of weird that they find the idea of mayonnaise with chips weird. Pizza I can see being weird, but then again it can work depending on the toppings.

Holy shit Sessler worked at ABN Amro? My Dutch homie ! Lovin' that mayonaise! :D
He probably worked in an US based ABN but whatever.

I went to the same grammar school as the former CEO of ABN: Rijkman Groenink. Guy gave a speech for us once before all the government takeovers and money-grubbing started.

Funny enough, the guy's name literally translates to something like Richman Greening. Nomen est omen I suppose. I'm gonna call my children Milli and Billi.

Man, I wish the Giant Bomb guys could hire Sessler, and make a weekly internet TV show with him and the site's crew. I'd totally watch that.

Edit: OH GOD JUST ORSON AROUND. I just burst out laughing in the library...

I'm only 30 minutes in, but this has been a really great episode.

I watched Lethal Weapon 2 for the first time a few months back while doing laundry, and I was totally confused by why anything was happening. I thought maybe I just wasn't paying close enough attention, but I'm glad to see it's more universal than I thought.

E3 Mysteries?!
That has been so freaking funny, and I'm surprised the joke hasn't gotten old yet. I really hope they bring this up during their E3 stuff at some point, hahahaha.

Agree 100%, Square hasn't made anything themselves that I have given the slightest shit about since maybe FF6 but they didn't fuck up avalanche making JC2 or renegade ops.

Anyone else thinking about doing a Sessler Run in Skyrim? Load up a character, spin him around with your eyes closed, stop, then begin the death march in whatever direction you're facing until you reach the borders of the map. Or die. Chances are you'll die first.

The first hour was pretty hard for me to get through. I'm not a big fan of the Sess.
E3 mysteries is pretty damn funny, though.

I never was a big fan either. Especially after his EVO commentary.

However, enjoyed hearing history and vg journalism lore in the podcast though. Learning how Sessler knew people from the cast etc. Was entertaining.
