Ninja School will help you
Note that I won't be on the PAX podcasts, so each episode only counts as about 3/5 of a show.
With a little more organized bullying I bet we can get it up to three podcasts

I'm sure mik could find a more engaging debate by yelling at a wall. lolHe and mik can debate the finer points of EA/Maxis's online strategy while Phil moderates.
Devastated
famousmortimer... firehawk12... I'm pleading with you guys out since you're in this thread. Save me from P1P's incompetence with some podcasts pls
It was. I want to look up the podcast/website he said he was from and ask if he knew that he ignorantly and rudely ignored two people he probably should have had as much knowledge of as Klepek if he's an aspiring "games journo."The random guy who walked up and started gushing to Patrick- that was hard to listen to.

Whatever. Kids these days.
It's been almost 10 years since I've been out of games journalism. So I wouldn't blame the guy if he didn't know us. I probably wouldn't recognize most of the game journalists that left to do something else unless I'd worked with them directly.
And the recording device was on the floor and it probably wasn't completely obvious we weren't just chatting. Totally fine w/me.
=(No regular episode this week. Maybe next week, but CJ will be at GDC.
The guy even got a plug in for his website between praising Patrick and ignoring Greg and CJ. The man has the makings of a great gaming journalist
There were no pictures. It's better that way.
Third parties selling exclusive rights seems to be something that a lot of people are predicting lately. There are even non-idiotic people whispering about Madden exclusivity. I don't think the NFL would ever go for it but MLB did so who knows.
The MLB didn't though, there's still 2K.
There should be a regular episode recorded this week. Might be a bit late based on CJ's travel schedule, though.
I didn't mind that the Stick Skills guy didn't say anything to us. He was extremely nervous to begin with, and I'm sure he was just concentrating on not making a fool of himself in front of someone he so obviously looks up to.
Sweetness! Thanks for doing the videos. That's usually the way I roll these days. Adds another element to the show. Thanks CJ!New episode is up! April Fools!

Video - Coming...tomorrow? Something like that.
Near Keany Square,[4] at 529 Commercial Street, a huge molasses tank 50 ft (15 m) tall, 90 ft (27 m) in diameter and containing as much as 2,300,000 US gal (8,700 m3) collapsed. Witnesses stated that as it collapsed, there was a loud rumbling sound, like a machine gun as the rivets shot out of the tank, and that the ground shook as if a train were passing by.[5]
The collapse unleashed an immense wave of molasses between 8 and 15 ft (2.5 and 4.5 m) high, moving at 35 mph (56 km/h), and exerting a pressure of 2 ton/ft² (200 kPa).[6] The molasses wave was of sufficient force to damage the girders of the adjacent Boston Elevated Railway's Atlantic Avenue structure and tip a railroad car momentarily off the tracks. Nearby, buildings were swept off their foundations and crushed. Several blocks were flooded to a depth of 2 to 3 feet (60 to 90 cm). As described by author Stephen Puleo:
Molasses, waist deep, covered the street and swirled and bubbled about the wreckage. Here and there struggled a form whether it was animal or human being was impossible to tell. Only an upheaval, a thrashing about in the sticky mass, showed where any life was... Horses died like so many flies on sticky fly-paper. The more they struggled, the deeper in the mess they were ensnared. Human beings men and women suffered likewise.[7]
The Boston Globe reported that people "were picked up by a rush of air and hurled many feet." Others had debris hurled at them from the rush of sweet-smelling air. A truck was picked up and hurled into Boston Harbor. Approximately 150 were injured; 21 people and several horses were killed some were crushed and drowned by the molasses. The wounded included people, horses, and dogs; coughing fits became one of the most common ailments after the initial blast.
Anthony di Stasio, walking homeward with his sisters from the Michelangelo School, was picked up by the wave and carried, tumbling on its crest, almost as though he were surfing. Then he grounded and the molasses rolled him like a pebble as the wave diminished. He heard his mother call his name and couldn't answer, his throat was so clogged with the smothering goo. He passed out, then opened his eyes to find three of his four sisters staring at him.[1]
