"It's kinda like this game, but with fish!"

Anyone know what game this statement may be referring to? Official Phantom_Leo wang pic for the first to answer correctly!

Then Kojima said this:

LOL

You are Otacon. I am Solid Snake.

Oh and I have a question for the resident Australians. Is Major League Baseball becoming popular down there? I just saw that the Dodgers are playing a spring training game at some cricket field in Sydney and I couldn't help but wonder... why? Only diehards care about Spring Training. And really only old diehards. I don't understand why they'd go down there and risk getting bit by a spider or snake or getting attacked by a drop bear.

It's just an MLB marketing thing to back it seem like baseball is something that happens outside of North America and Japan.

The coverage of it down here falls under the novelty news section, it's imposible to read, it's like having a dog review a movie.

There are amatuer leagues down there that are well represented in major cities, but it's on the same level of lawn bowls and cricket in the US -- yes, if you look hard enough you'll find it, but if you were not looking for it you would not know it exists.

For you guys that ilke to hear insider dev talk the latest giant bombcast has Dave Lang on it.  Sprinkled throughout the enitre show he's dropping all sorts of insider perspectives and experiences.  even if you don;t know who he is (and really he's not that notable) the informartion he gives is 100% interesting.

Shit. Second Son is out and it is only $90 in Australia.

There is a game for the PS4 I want, and I don;t have the time to play it. or buy it. Something has to change.

Anyone here got/ played it yet?

I learned something amazingly cool tonight while I was at the convention. Other local area conventions go around promoting themselves as well since this is the biggest event in Orlando. One of those is Nerdfest (formerly Nerdapalooza), which is pretty much like experiencing an abortion in your ears. It's basically a geek music event. Geek/Nerd/Video game singers, bands, rappers and stuff perform for a whole weekend. Basically a bunch of wannabe Weird Al's and guys who watch too much Adult Swim and go for novely over quality. The high points are basically stuff like The Mini Bosses or Luke Ski. Still just novelty acts at best.

So as I read through the flyer for their next show I had to do a double take when I saw who the header was. . . Nobuo Uematsu and the Earthbound Papas.

Nobuo Uematsu?????  Really???? How the hell did they get him???

Apparently he and his little group have been quite actively touring and this summer they will include Orlando to the places they visit. So now I'm trying to find out if he'll be signing at the show. If I can get him to sign an old Final Fantasy soundtrack I might just be able to endure some of the "nerdcore rappers" that will be performing before him.

If you can get him to sign old SNES carts etc... you could make some dough off it too.

I am listening to the latest game under podcast while catching up on the web, which is weird, because I don't remember any of it.

Anyway Foolz, good show man. At least it was edited to make you sound good.

You know I do have a Super Famicom FFV cartridge that's been just sitting there. Maybe I'll have him sign that. But I don't think I'm going to try to go through the hassle of trying to resell anything. Authenticating tends to be genuine pain in the ass and real collectors want that. This is just for my personal collection.

I've seen cricket in the US actually. Seemed to be exclusively played and watched by people from the commonwealth or who went to school in England for a long period of time. If that's the size of the baseball crowd down there it can't be that big. Ultimately, it's just a collosal waste of time on MLB's part or a very weak attempt to try and emulate some of the NFL's success when they play a game or two in London.

Lawn bowls makes it onto national television here. Or at least it used in the early hours of the morning.

By the way Leo, thank you again for the Guided Fate Paradox recommendation. The story and characters are little too over the top ridiculous for my taste, as NIS games often are, and the voice work is complete shit. But the gameplay is amazing. It has some of the most innovative ideas I've ever seen in a rogue crawler game. I've just completed the second lesson and the boss battle at the end of it was amazing. Unlike anything I'd ever played before.

On that off chance that you see this GME, you really need to play this game. If you liked Azure Dreams you'll really enjoy this.
