Great! Just in time:) I find I've been up at all hours without much to do since my 360 took a dirt nap last Thursday, so this will kinda rock to listen to.
Hey Richard, Dustin, Xav...can someone please find out for me if the 60 GB 360 Pro will come with a data transfer cable? I'd like to transfer game saves to my new one next month and I haven't heard any confirmation online anywhere.
Break the news but don't let it break you, X3F!
Peace

I haven't slept @_@
My console RROD'd last night. :(
It's a Core system anyway so I guess I'll fix this one, give it away and buy an Elite.

Heyyyy! So cool. Richard mentioned me in talking about Silent Hill Homecoming. Uber cool, my friend. Pyramid Head within the game can't be anything more than a movie fan's addition since I'm sure a lot of Silent Hill Homecoming purchasers, sadly, will have never played the first few games.
Regardless it'll be nice to see ol' Pyramid in HD..so that alone sounds like something to look forward to.
Again we as fans appreciate your sleeplessness and your reporting! I decided this week that even WITHOUT a working 360, I'm passionate enough about gaming to have seen nearly every 360 video recorded and most stories written, INCLUDING PS3 games of interest. Yeah...I might get one some time in the upcoming space between space. Lord knows I'm selling my Wii..
Please check out that transfer cable thing with the 60GB Pro if you can, guys..I'd appreciate it. It's no big deal though.

I am so sick and tired (to the point of an upset stomach) about music games, regardless the console.
If I could amalgamate the four primary game themes of E3 2008, we'd end up with Little Suzy playing a co-op music game with her mom with a broken wrist...in Africa. That's a weird image.
CATCH THEM ON FIRE! PLEASE!

Yeah Dustin, you slept! You sound a lot better. I feel much more confident that you'll survive the week now :-)
As an aside, I miss the fan noises. Can you turn Alex's computer back on?

No Mercenary 2?
How odd, the game is releasing in August.
May have to hold off until I see some reviews.
Please let us know if Mirror's Edge cause motion sickness, I meant apart from your insomnia.

That's weird I didn't hear any fan noises in the last podcast, but I did hear Richards ipod whirring over and over. Nice work guys, thanks for keeping up with everything, though seeing The Who seems like a more than fair reward. How many people ended up being at the show? Xav are you pissed you couldn't go?

I've probably slept about as many hours as the rest of the guys... so not pissed, tired!
Oh but seeing THE WHO in concert? Yeah, that I'm pissed about.
Pretty good... I'ma break my foot off in Dustin's butt!

I know on G4tv last night they were showing Merc 2, so I wonder if Pandemic was showing it only to the G4 crew. Seems weird that they would only show it there and not on the show floor. Another great cast guys.

lol I still hear what sounds like the same fan noises in this podcast, but as I said its no big deal. I just happen to be really nitpicky and perfectionistic with the things I do, and sometimes I forget that not everyone is the same way.
If you guys get the chance, could someone take a look at Project Origin? That game is being criminally overlooked even though it will probably be better than most of the shooters that are getting more coverage.

Yeah, FYI: the "fan" sounds from the previous podcast was just the iPod spinning its Hard drive.

I have something you can talk about on your next podcast! What would be better to buy Rock Band 2 or Guitar Hero: World Tour?

Richard, before you leave E3 make sure to ask someone from Microsoft about when we are going to start seeing music downloads. Also tell them that there is at least one person who would download Xbox Originals if they had achievements, but until then they are not getting my money.

Just wondering? Did you guys get to play RE5? Probably a stupid question, but just wondering @_@

Weirdness at 16:47. At minute mark 16:47 did it switch from Castle Crashers to Galaga rather abruplty for anyone? Seemed like we missed a bit of talk about Castle Crashers.

Yeah, happened for me, too. I seemed to notice it in some other spots, too...
