Title: Episode 13: The Unlucky One
Post by: oksoda on December 18, 2011, 08:01:55 PM

News and Rayman: Together in one convenient package!

http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/connectivity/28732

Well, even without new ambassador games available when this episode was recorded, we still had a ton to talk about. Would you believe that Xenoblade is coming to America? Crazy, right? Also, would you believe that the new Rayman game is pretty darn good? I guess that is probably a yes. Scott talks with Zach and Andrew about all that jazz in this episode, which you will surely enjoy.

I have ZERO interest in cricket, but I would buy a Mario cricket game (though I would tend ask where is my Mario football game?)

Reading off the release calendar is nice, but the segment was rather lengthy. Also it was frustrating to hear when none of the panelists knew anything about a particular title. For the future, how about a standing rule that if anyone knows any information on an upcoming title, then that person will comment immediately if the person wants to share. If no one knows anything, then the show will bowl through the release list to the next item.


The Rayman segment was nice. I'll be sure to grab a copy for myself in the future.

Aw, bummer. The segment that Jonny, Neal and I recorded got bumped this week. Hopefully they use it next time. I thought it went pretty well.

Zach, that other Texas football team? It's the Dallas Cowboys.

Quiet, you. I can't even think about football right now after the Packers lost to...Kansas City. There is no god.

Also, Enner, I totally understand where you're coming from. I don't do news at all, and we were kind of hoping Neal would be here because he knows more about probably all of these games.

Dick.

Also, don't worry. End goal is Super Bowl, Zach. Undefeated season would have been a nice cherry, but a Super Bowl win would be supreme.

Not that I care too much about football, but I'm hoping this means the Packers won't try too hard on Sunday and embarrass the Bears.

BTW, the game played in Alice in Wonderland is croquet, Cricket is kinda like Baseball. They got those paddle bats that some people use for bashing zombies.

That's right, croquet. I'd rather play that then cricket.

For the one minute segment name, I propose you guys either go the lowest common denominator and call it Minute To Bitch It, or the classy Orwellian literary call-back route with One-Minute Hate. Bonus if the drop for the latter includes lines like "We've always been at war with Sony" or "Gamestop has always been our friend."

I went with a reference to the Ambassador games for my suggestion, ironically.

RANT!

Doesn't the zip code you use have to match up with your billing information on the credit card?

I haven't played One Minute Hero but that would be fine if the name of the segment becomes an in reference to it.
