We don't always like being nonplussed

Minecraft with Friends! Part 8: Roofing

Watch and be amazed as I build the most boring house possible while ExVee and Isstvan82 build really neat houses! I'll have to nice mine up sometime soon...

Borderlands 2 Part 19: Stabby Gun!

I never used the melee-enhancing guns in the first Borderlands because they slowed my melee attack rate down considerably. Have to see how they do this time!

Mobile Suit Gundam: Battle Operation (PS3) New Mine Map, Customizable Comments

Gundam Battle Operation just got patched! We've got a new map, a new game mode, a customizeable chat system, and new Mobile Suits! Namely: Acguy, Gelgoog Ground Type, GM Sniper II, and GM Command. Tomorrow I'll cover the new Battle Control mode!

New Soundwave 126: Mortal Monday and the Fall of G4

John DeLuna, Brian Kilby and I talk about Mortal Monday, possibly the first time a big fuss was made about a game release date! Then we talk about G4, whether gaming has any place on TV, and the pitfalls and pratfalls of gaming journalism in general.

Minecraft with Friends Part 7: I Curse At The Game, Because I'm Sane

Oh, we all curse at the game from time to time. I've been cursing at one quite a lot for being much harder than its predecessor- see previous post!

Borderlands 2 Part 18: Boner-Fart

Actual in-game term! This is not us editorializing! (However that would actually work!)

Minecraft with Friends Part 6: Love Seats Are The Devil!

Borderlands 2 Part 17: E-Tech

E-Tech weapons are great. I've only gotten a couple, but I love `em. My first keeper was a repeater that fires little darts that explode and do flaming damage after they connect. Sadly the nature of the damage means it doesn't count as a flame gun for various quests...

Black Matrix Zero Part 4: Who Are All These People?


So new guy's name is Exal, more or less. I put a BP thingy on his Falchion and give Cain the Cutlass, and then we're off again!


Big pile of dudes here, but most of them are equal to or lower than our level. It goes pretty smoothly.


Semi-counterintuitively, Luca has a healing spell; it goes by the name of Lilim. I say "semi" because yes, she's a demon, but she's also The Girl, which gives her an 80% chance of being the party healer. The last two poor bastards run down a dead-end alley and we run them down.

Borderlands 2 Part 16: She's Crazy If She Don't Like Bacon

We all knew Tannis was nuts, but we get to see how nuts in her introduction today. Also, that off-handed proposition? I get that as the Siren too, so I expect the Rule 34 crowd to have a field day with that.

Minecraft with Friends Part 5: Diamonds!

Lots of Diamonds. The most I've ever found on a single map. We just recorded some more Minecraft last night with AngeliqueDaemon! That was fun. Chaotic, chaotic fun.


Black Matrix Zero Part 3: Tourist Traps and Serial Killers

After our nice little illustration at the end of yesterday's installment, we go right back to the pre-battle menu. I go to the BP screen and upgrade all three weapons. The special ability Cain's short sword gains is "Haborym," which happens to be the name of one of my favorite characters in Tactics Ogre. He's worth a point of VIT. The other two do... something! I'll find out later.



Yohane's hair's a lot more purple in spritey form. Their levels are equal to Cain's, and he's stronger than either of them. Well, he is the hero. Er, protagonist. We also discover that the seven-page blank list will ultimately give the names of all the unlockable special abilities of weapons and such, as the first option up is Haborym. But that's all we can do, so it's time to move on!

Minecraft With Friends Part 4: Into The Mine!

In which Isstvan and ExVee are amazed by my tunneling progress!

Borderlands 2 Part 15: It Was Not Obvious ...and Loot Midget

I've been doing some digging about the original Borderlands lately, and discovered the location of the final Loot Midget and the Lilith Shrine, which I never found before. Disturbing!

Black Matrix Zero, Part 2: Hats

Actually, it's possible that the Priest's name is Incest. He is Father Incest. Yeah.

"Father Incest, we need your advice!"

"No, you don't. Clearly, bad decisions run in my family."

"On your mother's side or your father's side?"

"It's one side."

Minecraft With Friends! Part 3: Home Improvement

I love the digging, so I volunteered myself to go gather iron and such so we can shear the sheep to make the beds that lay in the house that Jack built.

Borderlands 2 Part 14: It Is Pretty Obvious

There's a ton of hidden stuff in this game. There's some really neat Minecraft-themed hidden stuff, in fact!

Black Matrix Zero Part 1: My Little Sister Can't Be This Mysteriously Ill!?

Isstvan did the last Flail and he's really busy for his channel, so I'm up! Back in August when we had our second anniversary contest, more than half of the entrants asked us to do Black Matrix Zero for GBA, so here we are doing a brand new text Flail!

I know absolutely nothing about this game except that it's a Tactics-type game, which I like! And it involves angels and demons, which I'm okay with. I think as a story thing they're a bit played out, maybe not as much so as vampires, zombies or shadowy government conspiracies, but up there, definitely. But hey, let's see what we've got!

Mobile Suit Gundam: Battle Operation (PS3): MS-06K Zaku Tank Gameplay

The MS-06K Zaku Tank is a descriptively-named Mobile Suit with the upper body of a Zaku and the treads of a tank. In the right hands, they are incredibly destructive. My hands are not those hands.

Minecraft With Friends Part 2: Lag Problems!

You know you're with a good group when lag is funny instead of annoying. Guest-starring Me (Rob Clay!) and ExVee from Figurereviews.com and Superhero Time!

Borderlands 2 Part 13: You Cannot Fight Fire With Fire

Yeah, better to use explosive. Speaking of explosives, I lucked into a Legendary Grenade Mod first thing in my Maya playthrough- it lets off clusters of ten bombs in a huge blast radius. Absolutely indispensible!
