I love the interaction between Sands and Moe. It’s like those two are holding a completely separate podcast from Hilden and I. It was awesome seeing Sean’s looks of absolute bewilderment in reaction to some of Moe’s comments. Capturing those moments on camera would have been gold.

The “This is a phone. I only make calls with it.” stuff was great.
I do have to point out that smart phone makers were making touchscreen phones before the iPhone. It’s just that Apple fans are much louder about the products they own. They’re like Nintendo fans who must vote Ocarina of Time as the Greatest Game of Ever in every online poll. Because if OoT isn’t number 1 then the world gets hit by a moon… Oh wait, that happened in the better Zelda game.
My favorite part of the conferences was in the Sony one, not the Wii stuff, but it was the PSP commercials. After completely trouncing the DS Sony is setting it’s sights on the next victim: the iPhone. Good luck, Sony.

Hilarious show, guys. Sean’s personality and sense of humor seems to fit in with the DGR crew better than GWJ crew. He and Moe seemed to have a, shall we say, ‘special’ banter going on that added a new level of hilarity.
Since he rarely does the GWJ podcast these days, I say make him a frequent guest to the DGR show, unless he simply can’t be bothered with doing more than 1 podcast per month.

sean has to come on more often, not for his opinions cause i honestly dont care but its funny when moe and his little friend play while the grown ups talk

So, I’m only a little over an hour into the podcast, but I had to mention that “Metal Gear Rising” is NOT a 360 exclusive: it’ll be on PS3, too. What’s-his-face at the Microsoft Press Conference said “everything after this will be exclusive to Xbox 360,” and that meant that “Rising” and “Call of Duty: Black Ops” would be multiplatform.

…and sorry to be douchie (word?), but one last point of clarification: the Steam Store isn’t coming to PS3, it’s Steamworks, which is part of their back-end.
As I understand it, this whole thing stems from the L4D and L4D2 (and TF2, for that matter) shenanigans with Microsoft, in that Microsoft wants to charge you for DLC levels, but Valve wants to give you DLC for free. On PC, TF2 has thrived because of all the free content that gets pushed to you. L4D game modes were free on PC, but you got charged for them on 360.
Valve is saying that any new game you buy on PS3, that’s a Valve game, will get access to free DLC and automatic updates. If you buy it on 360, you may (or will) have to pay for it.
And, moreover, if you have the same game on PS3 and PC, theoretically, any achievements you get on PC will translate into trophies on PS3, and vice versa. Automatically.
So yeah, even without the Steam Store, per se, it’s still a pretty awesome move. I’m kinda hoping Valve, as part of the Steamworks integration, announces The Orange Box for PS3 as a downloadable title that also has Steamworks integration, giving all that free TF2 content for free to PS3 owners. The PS3 implementation was the bastard-child of the different versions, so I think they’d almost have to re-release it as a downloadable in order to get Steamworks to function properly. No announcements or hints were made to that end. Just wishful thinking on my part.
Sorry, that’s my last comment. At least, last one correcting Hilden’s wrong-ness.

Not douchie at all. Corrections/clarifications are always welcome.
June 23rd, 2010 at 1:44 pm
What John means is “Correcting Hilden and Moe is always welcomed.” If you correct John then say goodbye to your letters being read on the show. John is a harsh mistress. Well, John is a man so I’ll go with.. no, I think I’ll still to John being a harsh mistress.
I think that will teach him to never get back to me after I told him the date I will be in MN. Even though it turns out I will only be there for a little over 24 hours (arriving late Friday night and leaving Sunday morning) and won’t have much free time if any at all.
June 23rd, 2010 at 1:59 pm
What?!
*Quickly checks emails…*
I got nothing, man. Nothing! And the last thing I see from you on Facebook is a message that says you’ll be here on the 26th. That’s it!
June 23rd, 2010 at 2:45 pm
It’s true. John is the cruelest mistress of them all.
June 23rd, 2010 at 3:47 pm
You asked when the wedding was and I told you. It turns out I’m not going to have a lot of free time.
Do you know how far Lonsdale is from you guys anyway?
June 23rd, 2010 at 3:52 pm
But you can make up ignoring me like a trailer park wife by bringing up this new awesome iPhone game: http://www.joystiq.com/2010/06/23/slayer-pinball-rocks-tests-your-metal-on-iphone-and-ipad/
June 23rd, 2010 at 4:15 pm
Lonsdale’s about a half an hour south, just down I35 from Moe and I. I’m going to be busy building a deck this weekend, but if you want to meet up for a drink or whatever, just let me know.
June 23rd, 2010 at 4:29 pm
Oh god. Hilden’s rant about Sony’s 3D is great. I’m having trouble breathing from trying not to laugh out loud.
June 23rd, 2010 at 8:17 pm
@John, I’m trying to figure out if I’ll have time. I originally thought that my cousins wedding would be like the others in the family, which is a small ceremony at the church and a meal after it. But this seems to be turning into a big all day thing.
Now excuse me as I mop up the laundry room floor before the AC repairman comes in the morning.
June 24th, 2010 at 10:12 am
Well, my schedule just opened up, so I’m available just about any time. Except for after 4:30 on Saturday. Hilden’s daughter is having a birthday party.
June 24th, 2010 at 2:33 pm
I laughed a lot.
June 24th, 2010 at 5:01 pm
@John, I think I’ll still be doing wedding stuff at 4:30. :/ Oh well, I guess I should better schedule and communicate things.
Seeing Drunken Gamers Radio in person is still on my things to do list though.

The voicemail from the dude that sleeps with his cats creeped me the fuck out. WTF. That guy needs to head over to NeoGAF with and prance around with the weird feline fetishists over there.
