Just listened to it again, it's just that good (Y)

Oh and Larry, "Yeah, no one's home", had me in stitches :rofl:

LOL I barely remember even saying that, although I am sure I did because it is how I feel. (Y)

And in regards to PC games, without a doubt they will also get reviewed of course, but the big issue is just like Jonny I am not an RTS or RPG player, so that right there wipes out most new PC releases and me playing them. I mean of course any other genre will get covered, but that is a pretty large part of the the PC scene right now. Really all you would be getting from he is if they looked good and how many frames per second they ran, not if they were actually a good game or not as I would not really know (well I would know a little, I am downplaying it a bit,) so just saying not my field of "expertise" whatsoever.

So that is something for sure interesting and what we need to keep in mind for the third anchor... PC experience with genres we both don't like. :laugh:

And again, thanks for all of the comments, seriously beyond much appreciated.

Aww, a shame - I would love to hear some opinions on those games, hopefully you'll do ArmA 2 once it's released, 'else I might have to find my pitchfork and farmers hat :laugh: Hopefully the third addition to the team will cover those bases then! On another note, how's the next show coming along, still in the planning phase or can we expect something before / by the end of the weekend?

We're hoping to record a show early next week. Larry is having some issues with his iMac right now and I haven't had much chance to game this past week, hopefully that'll change real soon! But yes, a new show is in the planning stages.

As you mentioned, we are looking to fill the third seat and maybe even have the occasional guest member on the show. As I've said previously, we have a lot of plans for both the podcast and the gamers section in general but things will just take a little time. So please bear with us as this isn't (unfortunately) our full time job.

In other news, we are now on iTunes (link opens iTunes). So please subscribe and spread the word if you haven't already done so :)

Only pint I was drinking was water in case my throat dried up with nerves :p

I'm fine talking with both the guys cause we talk on XBL a lot already, but being recorded is weird.

So you were drinking shots?

Also if being recorded is weird I don't think you can have my babies anymore.

Looking forward to hearing it Munky!

Will sound natural to me, I'm surrounded by the Scots :wub:

Although it will be slightly jarring at first just like it always is when you have an American/British accent crossover :p

DL is usually all chilled and relaxed, us British (Scots especially) tend to speak much faster or use a lot of slang no one understands. You better have represented the Scottish dialect!

Like aye man totally man, yer maw said naw :rofl:

He better not have overdone it with the Scottish accent. Some of us non-native speakers would love to get a grasp of what he's saying.

(Yes, I've spoken to native Scots before. Yes, I had a hard time understanding them.)

    • Microsoft OneDrive is getting a simple yet much needed feature

      All I want is a way to turn off the Copilot AI suggestion crap in OneDrive that doesn't break OneNote, etc. -- as the current Account setting change option does...

    • Here is the new Surface Laptop Ultra wallpaper in high resolution

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Here is the new Surface Laptop Ultra wallpaper in high resolution by Taras Buria Earlier this week, Microsoft announced the Surface Laptop Ultra, its brand-new high-end laptop powered by NVIDIA's brand-new RTX Spark processor. As usual, Microsoft gives each new device a unique wallpaper, and the Surface Laptop Ultra is no exception. While the device is not publicly available yet, somebody has already extracted its wallpaper, giving everyone a chance to get a piece of the upcoming laptop in its full-resolution glory. The Surface Laptop Ultra has a very dark, abstract wallpaper that resembles the stock wallpapers in Windows Server, albeit with much less color. Having this dark, grim wallpaper highlights the laptop's mini-LED display and its ability to cut off parts of the screen's backlight to achieve OLED-like black levels. However, if you also like light wallpapers, we made a white version by simply inverting its colors. You can download both wallpapers below (click the image, right-click it, and select "Save as"): The Surface Laptop Ultra is expected to launch later this year. Microsoft is not revealing full details yet, including the price. However, Microsoft confirmed up to 1 petaflop of AI performance and RTX 5070-level of GPU performance. The heart of the laptop has up to 20 CPU cores and 6,144 GPU cores. Additionally, Microsoft and NVIDIA boast high CPU efficiency for all-day battery life. As for the display, it is a 15-inch mini-LED display with a pixel density of 262 ppi and a maximum brightness of 2,000 nits. Of course, not everyone needs this amount of power, and certainly not everyone can afford it. For those who need a more affordable device, Microsoft is also preparing the next-generation Surface Pro powered by the Snapdragon X2 Elite processor. Weeks ahead of the announcement, details about this computer were leaked by a retailer. Do you like the Surface Laptop Ultra's stock wallpaper? Share your thoughts in the comments.

    • Governments are ruining the internet to protect kids but there is a much better way

      By WaltC · Posted

      From all that I've read on the subject--not that much, really--it looks to me like companies and parents are trying to protect themselves from children using their parents accounts to run up giant bills, sometimes in the thousands of dollars, and the first the parents know about it is when they get sued... Internet companies have been sued for tailoring their ads to children, which is kind of old news. My belief is that policing starts at home with the parents, and the reason that so many laws that can't be enforced are being passed is because parents are eschewing their responsibilities, claiming not enough time, not enough knowledge, etc. Giving kids cell phones sans Internet connectivity is a good place to start--confine Internet activity to PCs in the home that the parents regulate. My kids are all grown and gone, I'm happy to say... They have their own kids to worry about.
