the next episode might not go up for a long time

the show isn't feeding to itunes (probably isn't showing on zune either), or showing in our rss feed, or on our blog page, so this post and the one on gaf is basically the only way to get it (it would always show up everywhere almost immediately under their old system)

libsyn support is nonexistent, tons of posts on their forums with no replies

i'm done with them, gonna go hunting for a new service

i'm so fucking pissed that i spent the last 1.5 hrs of my life fucking around with this bullshit when i could've been playing with my ipad that if a libsyn dude were standing here i'd knock his fronts out

Man, that's depressing to hear. I'm not a regular listener, but the world just wouldn't be the same without the Borecast.  :(

Oh man, 15 minutes of Robert tearing down the all-time classics.  :lol

finally we know that poor people have no taste

edit: the market garden level in frontline is one of my favorite levels in a shooter.
[youtube=560,345]Y7xhYBHbD9M[/youtube]

the music was actually done by Michael Giacchino (did the other MoH games too and I think ended with frontline), who recently got an academy award for Up.  Rightfully so since the music was the best thing about that movie.

actually, the PS3 HD version of frontline is one of the games I'm looking forward too (only if I can get it without buying the new MoH).  I let my roommate borrow my PS2 copy and he lost it.  I have the box and everything, but no game.

Don't you dare bash Wizardry 8, Robert! Don't you DARE!!  :maf

I bought the game at release. I've played through the game multiple times. It's extremely tedious during combat.

Might and Magic 7&8, for all their goofiness, actually play better in some regards. You could of course do worse than Wiz8, namely any modern D.W. Bradley RPG.

Too right. I got Dungeon Lords a few months ago on a recommendation from a guy at another forum and it was TERRIBLE, easily one of the worst RPGs I've ever played. Sold it about a week later.

There needs to be a recurring segment called "Robert's Hatorade" from now on where Robert trashes like ten-15 games in rapid succession like that. So awesome.

Listened last night.

 :lol Eel gasping at the "sacred" games being named

 :lol "LARP-ing hambeast"


I've got to admit, I wasn't a huge fan of Robert joining the podcast at first (I preferred the two-person format with the occasional guest), but he seems much more relaxed now and seems to be fitting in much better.

Thread for the 'cast with "value meal."

It's the very last thing before the episode goes off the air.

Quick question for Mr. Cruncheon, when you said, "at the meeting, we discuss who broke the 'RI'.." or something along those lines. What is the RI?

Change is coming.  Some regretful, some needed.  Stay tuned.

Good, I hope they're finally getting rid of that Kevin character; it was so obvious that he was just pretending to be really stupid as a joke, and it was wearing thin.

My Lasagna recipe is

1 Bottle of Newman's' Own Marinara
1 Box of Lasagna Strips
1 Bucket of Ricotta Cheese
1 Bag of Mozzarella
ASSLOAD OF GROUND BEEF

Brown beef and add Sazon seasoning, salt water and boil strips, layer that shit up

(http://imgur.com/WZjZd.jpg)
BAM!

Throw in the oven @ 350 degrees for 20 Minutes. Eat the shit out of it. I'm pretty sure some would consider it over the top but its so damn good.
