  • You know what, I never realized this until just now....there has never been an idea posted about a show on the FRC Forums...at all.

    Fine then, a show about awesome forumites and their contributions to the forums as a whole.
    EDIT: In other words, Geek Profiles featuring awesome forumites such as Viga, Sonic, Sail, Omnutia

    Holy shit....I just realized that I was. I remember what I was doing when I listened to that show.

    (Edit - as in, I was listening to Geeknights, Which makes it my longest running podcast subscription.)

    Me too! Wow, it doesn't seem like 5 years already.
  • Ha-ha! You've wasted years of your life interacting with this group of assholes!
    Wait, that hurts me too... on many levels.

    Neither was I.

    Instead of posting a list of the stuff I think would make awesome episodes, I'll post a link to a thread that sums up some episode ideas that would be epic. Also I have two questions for you Scott, how come Rym seems to be the one who doesn't read the awesome comics you do and do you have the same problem Rym has about having piles of unfinished media he has to get through?

  • I've been reading about this DS game called Scribblenauts that seems right up their alley. Basically, it presents you with puzzles like "get the cat off the roof" or "knock over the bottles," except that instead of the character having special moves to accomplish this, you type in pretty much anything you can think of - the game has this mammoth database of thousands upon thousands of objects to be called on at any given time, and the game seems to run with it very well. In the bottle puzzle, for instance, just to think outside the box, someone created a kangaroo, jumped in its pouch, then glued lettuce to a stick, and the stick to its back, so the kangaroo jumped forward into the bottles trying to get the lettuce; by the same token, someone else summoned a battleship and blasted them away. The possibilities for creativity there seem nearly endless, and just for fun, the menu screen lets you play around with the items, no rules or restrictions, just freedom to do.

    Even if its just mentioned briefly on a Tuesday show, the game seems to be worth a look.
  • I pre-ordered Scribblenauts, but I have very low expectations for it. I expect there to be about five minutes of lols as you type in all sorts of weird stuff. Then the game will basically have no replay value whatsoever.
  • Scott, if you grow tired of it (or any DS games for that matter) I would be happy to take them off your hands. I only have about three DS games at the moment.
  • It's a fair point - I've been disappointed far too many times by games that promise the world, but I will say I'm hopeful. Only time will tell though.
  • I never expect more than light diversion from any video game, and am only rarely disappointed.

    You should get a DS piracy card.

    Agreed, piracy cards are the way to go.

    The only time that I wouldn't agree or feel right in using them, is if it is of a new game that is released or a game that is so good, it is worth spending your monies on (like Professor Layton).

    Or I could just mooch off of friends' cast aways. :P

    To be fair, I only use mine to play games I wouldn't have bothered buying, or to try out games I'm probably going to buy anyway.

    Works for me. I have very few games that I bought new.
  • I know that this has has been mentioned here and there and this on this thread, but I really want to have an answer from Scrym:ete Why has there not been an Earthbound/Mother Series episode yet? It's a known fact that Scrym likes Earthbound and has been mentioned several times on the show. More recently, they mentioned it in a very recent episode of theirs with myself being mentioned as well. If you guys ever do decide to do an episode on the game, I think it would be a good idea to have myself on the show because I could add a lot to the show because I know it so well and love it so much, yet am able to keep it concise, detailed, and non-fanboyish (some of the time).
  • Having the Ultimate Batman:The Animated Series in my collection and one for Superman:The Animated Series coming out in November, it might be a good time to revisit the DC Animated Universe. Consider that for a period running from 1992-2006 arguably one of the best animated series was running in some version. I think it is also important to look back, as Disney XD is showing the episodes with a lot of heavy editing.
