I just hope the Army doesn't start recruiting from MewTwo servers. All the insurgents would have to do is yell "OMG noob tube" and all our soldiers would pull out their knives and start rushing forward blindly.

Laughed out loud at the title for the 15th "Final" Fantasy game (seriously, they might as well go with it) and almost choked on my breakfast burrito at the end. Spectacular, guys.

[small]Was anyone else expecting a slightly more... inappropriate reason for Kathleen to have a repetitive stress injury to her wrist? No? Just me? Huh.[/small]

sweet! this show is so consistently good it makes me wonder, do you guys spend a lot of time coming up with this stuff or does it come naturally after years of sketch comedy?
Time holes. That's what I decided. They found the lost time holes of Western Canada and have been employing them for over a quarter of a century now.

Great blooper, loved the Konami code joke, and the WoW Hunter "easymode" joke made me laugh at myself.

...I used to be one.

Ha, Morgan's accent wasn't terrible (okay, it was) but you lost it completely when he said "progress." I mean really Canadians, what are you doing thinking that vowels in American English follow consistent pronunciation patterns (like professor and production)? Come to think of it, that form of "progress" is a verb to me, as opposed to the noun. It's strange, but that one word always tells me when something was filmed or voice-acted in BC. Not a complaint, just a funny observation. Anyway, the Guitar Hero-controlled AA gun was inspired; good job!

Good show, Morgan! That almost-but-not-quite-redneck accent was pretty awesome!

EA's right, games released in 2009 are, like.. SO old, y'know?

I gotta agree with The Rogue Wolf though, I kinda went to a weird place there when Kathleen mentioned the wrist. Too much "Wii", perhaps? o_O

Probably the only thing I didn't enjoy so much was the Final Fantasy caption about it being "like the first one should have been". They AREN'T sequels, they're completely different games that all happen to be part of a series. Although the roman numerals are a sort of cop-out, it's still not the same as Assassin's Creed 2 or Uncharted 2. THEY have the same characters and overall set-up. In a lighter side to it, it does mean the Squeenix can finally work on a new series that ISN'T Final Fantasy, which will most likely be a successor.

Yay, Morgan! Although the accent was not so great. And I third the thought of a more inappropriate reason for Kathleen's repetitive stress injury. Liked the Konami code and the "OW!" at the end.

EDIT: And also, does anyone know why I can't access the Loading Ready Run website? It says "Error establishing a database connection".

EDIT2: Nevermind, it just got fixed after I posted my edit.

EDIT3: It's not working again.

So, does this show now have...extra lives, or did the Konami code just extend their contract with The Escapist? That would be awesome.
