I need to finish Back to the Future. Sounds pretty awesome. I stalled for some reason after the first episode.

I think Ghost of Sparta might--might--be my favorite God of War game. The fact that those games are <6 hours makes them much better--there is ZERO fluff in the portable editions. (and they look really cool in 3D)

And I'm now back on the fence about Burnout Crash. That demo was horrendous. But it sounds like the game is something I'd actually enjoy.

Have you gone back to Gears 3 at all? I haven't picked it up since the night of the incident.

Greg, you might want to try Gears 3 on Arcade mode. The scoring system adds a little flavor, and you're allowed to respawn after death as long as a teammate is still up.

Nay. My emotional wounds are only now beginning to scab over.

The majority of people who play single player no matter the difficulty are having a better time than people in coop. The AI controlled players are great at always reviving me within a few seconds of being downed. I've died less than a half dozen times playing through solo on hardcore and I'm on the last level.

Someone from the forums joined me last night and we died a few times in an hour. You just all have to stay close.

Good to hear that Phil's kid has worked out its gender identity.

[Indifference]

Congrats Phil.

BTW Burnout Crash with the Kinect is beyond awful. Do not attempt to try it.

On the night of the incident? Did you see any sailors?

I'm still in the first act on Gears 3. Last night was the second night I had the chance to play it (or any non-iOS/portable game) since picking it up a week and a half ago. Work, family, a little bit of kid issues, and then kids giving me whatever nasty illness they'd been battling. Enjoy the future, CJ and Phil!

A former co-worker named his son Finn. Pretty good name. That said, I don't know the apparent cartoon reference.

BTW: Don't age your babies in weeks, they're either in or out

Finally, Back to the Future talk! Yay. Good work Phil and Greg, I enjoyed that chat, been wanting to talk about the game for a while and you pretty much described how I felt about the game (I have no friends who play games, so I have to pretend to take part in your discussions).

Also I thought Phil was going to say "Ian" was out because I.P. as initials would be too comical!

Nice episode, glad to hear some video game chat, but funny that CJ could only talk about what is basically an iPhone game on a console.

I would love for you guys to do an Ico game-club, make it happen.
