A video game related Onion knockoff. How amusing.
Wow, I thought we'd seen the last of this comment months ago.

Still, it's good to know that yet more people believe The Onion were the first people to make fun of news.
The correct version is
A video game related This Hour Has 22 Minutes knockoff. How awesome!

I have to agree that rpg elements or even what was originally rpg like the original final fantasies ect are going to be gone in a few years (NOOOOO my favorite and a few years ago the only genre I played). I have to say though that the joke about making all the anal retentive elements in final fantasy 13 downloadable was genious.

I will actually preorder LP2 if Graham and Kathleen are in it even though I have no intention of buying it at the moment.

Ugh, Mass Effect 2 is NOT missing RPG elements. They are just more streamlined so you can spend less time in the pause menu and more time actually playing the game. If people think RPGs are games where you should be dicking around in pause menus all the time instead of playing, might I recommend a copy of Microsoft Office? You can dick around in the menus for hours, and developers can keep making RPGs that allow for gamers to spend more time playing and less time on the pause screen.

out of all the things to shoot first, it had to be the junction system. Poor, poor junction system.
I also liked the fact that 4 FF games were mentioned in this small amount of time. Feels good man.

Were those the same terrorists that were initially meant to appear in Syphon Filter? I'd be mad too if someone took away my chance at appearing in a game...

Pauvre Front de Libération du Québec... Wear that tuque proudly, will ya? Attache ta tuque avec d'la broche!

It's official! You guys RULE!

That was some funny ass shit!

I would play Guitar Hero Burzum any day. Give me a Guitar Drummer Discordance Axis [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xEEGWCNTm6g] and we're really talking.

So that's what happened to Mass Effect 2. Btw, Canada houses one of the world's leading research centers building autonomous robots. The CSA built the CanadArm that is up in space doing construction work on the ISS. I'm thinking about migrating to Canada and join up. They seem to be on the winning side here. The robots, that is.

Cinematic idea, no?

If you get any funnier, the Boremen will commercialize you like Eddie Murphy. I'd be careful!

Hrm, with all this positive reaction, I really do want to be in Lost Planet 2. With a special weapon called the Cattling Gun, that shoots kittens. This probably doesn't work with the "established" mood of Lost Planet 2, but it would be SWEET.

Anyone get the Guitar Hero: Burzum visual gag? :D

An excellent episode but, I miss the old format of setting up a joke at the beginning and finishing it at the end.
What this guy said...I believe that it was more entertaining when you showed it as a comedy format in a news setting rather then a news format with scripted comedy. Yes, I know it was scripted but now it doesn't have the old feeling that I really enjoyed. I still really like the show, but it almost feels like something is lacking.

the reporters corpse paint was terrible, and I would buy Guitar Hero: Immortal if it has One By One
I know :(
It's the best we could find.

You know how hard it is to find corpse paint out of season? "Metal" in Canada only last three weeks. Four on a leap year.
They must stock up at Halloween.

Also, if anyone knows ANYONE at Capcom:
Please, please put in a good word for Lost Planet 2.

I know it's coming out in, like, a month. But hey! There's always DLC!

I hope that the big shot terrorists over there realize that shooting the junctioning system was a GOOD thing.
