WOAH, WOAH, WOAH. I'm watching this episode and all this time I'm shaking my head. You've all but come out and flat out tell us that it takes place in the 80's. The 80's references are all over the place, the computer is one from the 80's, the PREMISE ITSELF (a tax software company shoehorns game-making into their repertoire) is something out of the 80's, specifically based in one of the major factors that caused the crash. AXL ROMA! THAT TV AT THEIR BOOTH WITH THE RABBIT EARS ON TOP!! 1980'S!!!
Yet here they are at E³. E³ was first held in 1995, not the 80's. That was CES.
It doesn't bother me so much that they're at E³ (everyone has episodes like this if it's a videogame show) as it does how you can run a site dedicated to video games and screw this piece of VG history up so badly. You could have slapped CES over the same episode and not change anything else and it would have worked out just fine. Yes, I understand that you're aiming for the teens that are idiotic towards this kind of thing but it's insulting to the people who actually know the past of videogames. If you MUST hold it at an E³-like expo, please just make one up or overblow CES (that last one isn't hard). This virtually ruined the episode for me.
Oh, and the rest of the episode...yeah. It was perfectly fine otherwise up until the butt-sniffing part, then a large man with LAZINESS spelled out in big letters with a marker on his shirt broke my door down, plopped down on my couch and started eating all of my chips. After the butt-sniffing started, it wasn't really funny anymore and screamed "WE HAD A DEADLINE TO MEET SO HERE'S A RUSHJOB ENDING HAHA IT'S FUNNY GET IT" to me. The entire ending after that point was like that, but most especially the butt-sniffing part. That was what, a few minutes to cut/pan the camera and move Yee a few pixels up and down every few moments? I'd expect that from NG or YouTube, not The Escapist. (maybe I should start?...)
There were alot of things wrong with this episode. It would have been good if it wasn't for those issues that I listed up there and won't list again.
It's been a good run so far, though. Ever since the show picked itself up from those terrible first few eps it's been pretty good.

Wait what, that was actually good and funny. Maybe I should start watching again. Good job guys, knew you could do it!
I tuned out of this show after episode 5 but thought I would give it another chance. I don't think I'll be making that mistake again.
I understand Kimosaber's point about the history of video games, and perhaps they could've made up their own expo that's exactly like the E3 just to stay more consistent to the time period, but...honestly, with fiction you reserve the right to warp things somewhat as you please to suit your story...if they want that to have been held earlier in time, then there's surely no reason you can't accept that slight difference in their universe (especially considering it's a universe in which anthro dogs apparently replace humans, and where there are bound to be SOME differences anyway..)
Nope. Russ Pitts writes this show. I just provide the voice of Gary and Chet.PoisonUnagi said:

k
there it is.
this is the episode that makes this series unforgiveable.
pedobear? are you shitting me?
i'm not quite sure how to take that; you're either terrible people for knowing about pedobear, or you're terrible people for using something that kind of messed up without knowing what it is

I don't understand how anyone found this funny; awful overdone dog joke, gay joke then add pop-culture references to taste? I don't see how this is popular.
