like the new opening, makes it seem more "professional", and russ pitt was great as the deranged leader of a failing company.

 

[TheGhostOfSin]

Much enjoyed Russ Pitts' cameo and the whole Atari segment.
Also new titles woo!

 

[Jack and Calumon]

The opening is good, but where's Matt on it? He's a reporter, sort of.

Calumon: Jack thinks he's the cutest! ^^

Jack: (Oh Crap. Do the Sony approach) I do not comment on rumours or speculation.

Share and enjoy
share and enjoy
Journey through life
With a plastic boy
Or Girl by your side
Let your pal be your guide
And when it breaks down
Or starts to annoy
Or grinds when it moves
And gives you no joy
Cos it's eaten your hat
Or had sex with your cat
Bled oil on your floor
Or ripped off your door
You get to the point
You can't stand any more
Bring it to us, we won't give a fig
We'll tell you, 'Go stick your head in a pig'

I like the new intro, well done

And I was getting a little nervous near the end but there it was: Kathleen's graceful hairflip. Thank you Kathleen, thank you.

 

[Armored Prayer]

Those new Call of Duty: ____ Warfare games sound like a blast to play. When do they come out?

Oh, and nice new into.

 

[joeman098]

hahahah SO SHUT YOUR FACE

 

[MattAn24]

..My jaw dropped at the crazy new intro, so much that I simply had to start the video over again to bask in its glory and awesomeness!

And now.. To the news~! Aha! I also like the further "panel" discussion with off-the-cuff comments from both Graham and Kathleen. I think a 4-person panel could work quite well too. To discuss teh news comically, etc.

Graham's rapid-firing segment is brilliant too! Much liking of it, yo. It reminds me of an Australian comedian who had a segment on a talk show here called "Hughesy Loses It". Nice touch!

But have YOU played Atari today!?

This explains... Everything..

 

[miquelfire]

Those poor souls who only played ET... I played it, got bored, went to other games.

 

[Jared]

Like the new opening...and you made the same LP2 joke I made with a friend lol

Crytek really are getting so big headed though...heh

And Russ Pitts! Epic!

 

[warps]

I absolutely loved Graham's delivery of "the orange portal" thing! He seemed genuinely angrier with every "visual argument" against Mac users being able to produce these. Good acting there!

 

[LadyCatra]

I burst out laughing (at work, not the best idea) over the Headshot segment! LOVED IT - Graham, that was hilarious and brilliantly acted! OMG thank-you!!

Love the new opening title with the reporter images but what happened to the blue jumpback background - it's been MIA for a few weeks?

 

[Eleima]

Is it me or is there a new opening credits sequence? Pretty neat!! =D
Regarding "the headshot" segment, I'm not certain your argument was very convincing, Graham.... *chuckles*
Loved the Atari commercial, that was hilarious. I thought the "help us!" sign was very cute, and couldn't help noticing a stray WiiMote in there, as well. As for the second "M-rated" commercial: "it will give you venereal diseases"?... Humm, let me think, sounds like fun!!
And Kathleen is right, it does explain everything!!
Great episode, guys! Looking forward to next week already!

 

[DeepComet5581]

I know I'm going to enjoy another 30 years of Atari brand-whoreing.

Loved the very end though. "This explains... EVERYTHING".

 

[Moloboen]

We have to help those poor children:O!

 

[Kyogissun]

Wow, that new intro was pretty cool.

And everything else was just as awesome.

Good episode guys, better than last week IMHO.

 

[joshthor]

dont like the new intro, but good episode
