Jared is mad that the men at the register tried to make him not play the game! Chad discusses Twin Eagle. Aliens vs Predator - the arcade one was awesome There was one near Bryan's house. God Hand is a more recent game. Jared hits a high note, and Chad disappointingly hits the music.

In Palm City - Florida has the greatest stories - Jared has never broken into a house, but if you were to, you would rob something worth a lot of money.

In Copenhagen, some dudes robbed a bank, and got to the safe. They were caught because they left behind bottles of their urine! Cop Bryan walks in and finds the piss - and drinks it!

Forum Questions[]

Q: What are your worst customer service experiences?

Chad has a lot of Blockbuster stories. When someone is renting something, they get really bitchy, and they get yelled at all the time. Chad gets a movie thrown at him. The man said that he put the movie in the dropbox - which is a trash can! The man straight up paid for the movie.

Jared had a woman who bought a new game for her kids. She called the store, furious for selling her a new game. She claims that it already came with saved games and everything. She wanted to get Jared fired! The game she bought was a Wii game, so it is impossible for there to be save data on there. Jared asked if they asked the game before, and the kids can be heard in the background saying they rented it last weekend! The woman hung up. Chad called it. They always get out right away!

Bryan worked in a movie theater. A woman comes up after fixing the popcorn, a woman demands the full popcorn box. The woman was raging because she had cold popcorn.

Q:  How was Sidescrollers done before using a video?

It was very similar to what it is done with now, except without the video and lights. It hasn't changed, there are just cameras now.

Q: Have you seen the Far Cry movie, and did you see Craig or Tom in it?

Jared has the Far Cry movie ready to watch, but hasn't seen it. None of the panelists have seen it in theaters. It was never released in theaters in the US. Bryan saw it on TV this year on TV. It is better than the director's other movies. Chad clarifies that their part got cut. Craig looks very sad.

Q: If you could make a peripheral for any system and any genre of game, what would it be and why?

Jared doesn't know. Bran wants a big touch screen for real time strategy games. He wants more then Kinect! Jared wants a vest that hits you when you are hit in a fighting game. Chad points out how much of a bad idea it is! Chad wants a better version of a Power Glove. Jared brings up a combination of a Virtual Boy and a Power Glove!
