This week the guys get local up front with news for a possible Brew Ha Ha meet up in downtown Indy, we mourn the passing of a giant with our observation of Towel Day, Jimbo Wales has delusions of grandeur regarding Wiki as a World Wonder, don’t mess with the TSA, Texas, and Jim pitches the idea of laser tag hair removal.
Read MoreDo my eyes deceive me? Nah.. it can’t be! Does that say POWER PLAY?! That’s right kids your favorite gaming show of all time is BACK! It’s been a long time coming but your patience will be rewarded with this first official re-launch episode of PowerPlay! In this weeks episode we introduce the long time…
Read MoreYou got to ask yourself. What are you going to do? What the hell are you going to do when you’re staring down a pack of water crazed camels hell bent on sucking the vital fluids from your air conditioner, your toilet, your water pipes? When they come as an unstoppable lumpy force to destroy your very means of modern life? One hump or two, motherfucker? One hump or TWO!?
Read MoreThe fans have been clammoring (clammoring!) for Jim and A.Ron to sing a duet of the inimitable Garth Brook’s “Low Places” for over a year now. Actually, that’s a lie. But! You can still hear it if you stick around after the outro in this week’s episode! Leading up to the big finish, we give a bit of PSN update, I talk gearhead bullshit for a minute, we talk about the local board gaming scene, the mighty THOR not sucking nearly as much as we presupposed, and whether Chris Hemsworth could earn a spot in the badass pantheon.
Read MoreThe boys navigate dangerous waters as the PSN outage has been upgraded from a tropical shit storm to a full fledged fecal hurricane. It must be discussed! Jim and A.Ron break it down from a personal, gamer, and professional level. Also, watching a serial killer on a weekly basis has Jim pondering “what makes great TV?” A.Ron urges his fellow geek to live by a few simple economic rules, we celebrate Skynet’s birth day, and close out the cast with a review of Poral 2 from our forum’s own Darth Paxis and some Batmania from Stafa’s corner.
Read MoreIn this week’s episode, the guys discuss the iPad’s destruction (ha-ha) of the United States economy, SOCOM 4’s furtherance of Madden ’84 policies, and A.Ron’s irrational anti-hoarding packaging problem. If it is a problem. I mean, it’s anti-hoarding, so it can’t all be bad.
Read MoreThis week we cover a lot of ground; stand up desks, Vibram Five Finger “shoes”, Cloud Girlfriends, a mini-review of Zack Snyder’s Sucker Punch, nerd fitness updates, feedback from our listeners, update on the Blue Yonder Curse, and finally, Jim Jones makes an epic, not-to-be-missed accent debut in this week’s edition of Stafa’s Corner!
Read MoreYou ever feel like some days you just can’t do anything right? You wake up, stub your toe on the bedframe, cut yourself shaving, get your dick and/or vag caught in the zipper, proclaim the 3DS as a revolutionary break through in gaming, and declare nuclear power the safest thing since foam rubber? Yeah, we have days like that. And we record them for posterity.
Read MoreHere’ the deal, loyal listener. I have no idea what this cast is about, cause I wasn’t a part of recording it. I’m sure there will be reprisals from bagging on Jim last week, so no matter what cock-and-bull story they come up with, know this: instead of casting, I was spending quality time with my progeny; introducing Star Wars to him for the first time. Try holding that one against me. Try it! You can’t. You can feel your black shriveled heart swelling 3x too big just thinking about it.
Read MoreJim has come down with yet another variation of Pax Pox, and the entire Bald Tower has been partitioned off by the CDC. And then… things kind of got out of hand. Something about generators running out of diesel, an irreversable self-destruct counter, and a high-impulse thermobaric fuel-air explosive consisting of a two-stage aerosol ignition… it’s all very technical, but the upshot is that Peter and I had to go old school and get the damn thing done via Skype.
