Hmm...
So the Newsroom is basically the Phailhaus?
Awesome.
Any chance of getting some pics of the day?

Yes!! More ENN: Phailhaüs Edition!

And no one correct me, because that is what this will be to me.

Edit: Phun Phact: Iph you want to use the special version of the letter "u", just hold the Alt key and type 129. Enjoy =)

Edit: I can't get over how much that rhino sounds like Paul.

Desperately dying of Dyssentary. XD

Also, we totally do need a ratings system with things like "This game is shit."

After seeing this style of ENN being done twice so far, I can say tat this new style is certainly entertaining. I hope to see more ENN like this, but I won't mind if you guys switch back either.

Your Mom Hates Dead Space 2 - Behind the Scenes [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dtAdjrvD0bY]

Brilliant! In a way, which makes me want to shake my head with disapproval.

I totally agree.
I REALLY hate that Dead Space 2 ad campaign.
My mom never gave a damn about what I played and she still doesn't.
Now actually try to sell the game to me, EA.

The Newsroom format it interesting, and it pays off. I enjoy it for one.
I'm glad someone spoke about the Dead Space 2 ad campaign. Honestly, it feels cheap and shallow. Sure, it's an advertisement, but it's trying to sell an incredibly graphic and violent game to 13 year olds via shock value. Really? Shock value sells games nowadays? When the original Mortal Kombat came out is sold because of shock value, but that was over a decade ago! Well done ENN, keep it up.

It's great to see all of the ENN writers more involved in the actual show!

I love these, even more than the vanilla ENN! Might have to do with that fact that the end of Phailhaüs left a hole in my life. A very strange shaped hole which can only be fill by the ranting of Canadians.

Hope more ENN: Phailhaüs is on it's way.

@Ensis235: It came out in '92 or '93, so almost 2 decades ago.

I love this format, but I'm also hankering for the standard format. I don't care when, though, really. Still fantastically funny, and it's really nice to get to see everyone pitch their stories. Again I ask, how similar is ENN: Newroom to the actual pre-episode meeting to discuss what will be in that episode? Did you guys essentially just film one of your meetings, adding things for the audience in places, or is it that you had a pre-meeting meeting to meet meeting meet meet?
