Uncompressed Episode 16

Welcome to Uncompressed Episode 16. Tony and Thom are joined by David Collins (aka Floyd) and talk about a ton of things. Sean Patridge (aka Shakka) sends in an audio question about Guitar Hero that sends Thom spiraling into a 20 minute diatribe about an idea he has for a GH clone. Also talked about are Playstation 3 delays, the Nintendo Revolution launch library, and talked a bit about EA charging you two bucks to avoid getting spammed to play Fight Night on the PSP online.

    Got it … Lord I like em fresh :)

    It always freaks me out to see “real” names…. I am so used to “niks” that it is to wierd to see anything else. David Collins….Hows your brother Phil?? Sean Patridge…. how can you ride in a patch work bus like that?? The only one who doesn’t freak me out is Thom ….. well… at least his name anyway….. His greeting on the other hand…..

    Opinion to follow … in the morning probably

    Hey guys,

    I wanted to thank you for having me on the show this week. That was a lot of fun. Give me a shout if you are ever in a bind, and need a last minute guest. Now I gotta listen to it and get all weirded-out about how I sound to myself. :)

    Great show as always.
    First… An FM transmitter is the way to go. The wrong COP and it’s a fine. My sister found this out. I dont have an IPOO er … Ipod so I cant use the one Tony pointed out. http://www.griffintechnology.com/products/itrip/ There are others to choose from so not a problem. As for finding what I want on my Zen.. Playlists help and traffic lights also :P

    I dont plan on getting a PS3 so who cares what they are doing. I still spend 90% of my time on the computer. I might dole out some tax money for something portable… Although…. I think a new pistol will win that round.

    I think game companies should learn from valve… Sell a great game… fix the “few” issues… let the fans rent thier own servers and be content with that. If they want more bucks from the same engine… sell map packs or different games based on the same engine. I quit playing Dark Age of Camelot because of paying a monthly fee for a game I had grown frustrated with. No way would I Give up the info EA wants or pay the 2 bucks … guess that is a game I will not be buying.

    Sean … I dont know if your wife playing games is good or bad … I cant get my GF to get past MSN games and even that has dropped my out of BF2 due to lag. I cant afford a second dsl line into here just so she can share my interest in games.

    BF2 … My current addiction :) The patch did make some good changes. Helos are no longer the God machines that they were. They lowered the damage threshold so they fall easier….. although… if they ever fix the stupid AA missles … they will probably have to look at the Helos again. As it is … I still play it with a certain level of enjoyment and also hope for the potential I see in it. If anyone sees Floyd flying and Gman gunning … better hope we are not in the groove … otherwise it might be best to just hide and wait for the end of the round :D

    Later Guys
