Summary

It sure does not feel like a gaming drought from where we are sitting! We talk about some great games this week including a budget, downloadable title that draws inspiration from Portal (Quantum Conundrum) and a surprising hit on the Playstation Vita (Gravity Rush). We delve into the financial trouble of THQ, hark on the stupidity of Sega, and even comment on breaking news coming out of Nintendo's Direct event. That includes a shiny new cadillac 3DS and some surprising news about the upcoming Smash Bros title on the WiiU!

Hey, everybody, welcome the four-player podcasts.

0:20.1

Prometheus didn't suck, though. 275. It wasn't great. I'm actually surprised that you're in this boat, because I feel like I'm pretty alone in that boat. I actually really enjoyed Remedius. Yeah. I just have no idea what was going on. But that doesn't matter. I mean, it looks pretty. Since when does that stops anyone from enjoying other movies?

0:38.1

Well, it's not, it's not, I mean, I mean, it's not, I mean, I'm, I mean, no, let me tell you

0:41.3

something. A lot of, a lot of foreign movies is this. Well, come on. Momentos is a well, yeah. A lot of, a lot of foreign movies is this in which they, uh, do things without explaining them and it's fine because what matters is what's happening right now. You don't really have time to

0:53.0

care for explanations or origins. But in Prometheus, it seems like they had an idea and they started to go with it. And then halfway they got distracted and decided to go somewhere else. And that happens like five or six times throughout the whole movie. It's not... I never noticed that. This movie never made me think about that once until the very end there's a few discrepancies

1:10.9

of the end you got dazzled by the visual well the thing is i got i got i started focusing more on

1:16.6

how they were connecting it to alien it started noticing inconsistency it doesn't matter it doesn't matter

1:21.1

all the story in lore it's just it's just a vehicle that that brought us you know really cool scenes scenes in some pieces, you know? I thought it was a really well... I mean, even the stuff with characters like, you're like, oh, man, there's got to be one bad guy, you know. Then you're like, you know, you know, like, one of these guys is going to be like a bad guy, right? And then it turns out, nope, it's not that. And then it's like, nope, this guy. and they're they're like whoa I don't know what's going on anymore I don't even know that sort of cleared things up for me but I don't even think that matters I don't even know why people are doing the things they do some of that well like with David are you what are you saying like with everyone with Android with David and with Charlize Theron I heard an explanation that sort of cleared up like David's motivations and explained why he did a lot of things he did.

2:06.1

Such as, you know, Spike the drink with...

2:08.7

I have no idea why he did that.

2:10.4

Okay.

2:10.8

That's getting into spoiler territory.

2:12.2

I recommend the film I enjoyed it quite a bit.

2:16.0

Yeah, I recommend it just because it's so nice to look at and it's definitely not

2:19.4

boring no it's like it from scene to scene it's pretty great

2:23.3

there's a lot of like really memorable scenes and they're as memorable as some of the

2:27.2

moment to moment scenes and some of the earlier aliens films I would even argue

2:31.1

the later aliens film oh and at the end I'm just kidding at theley comes out. I like how when we went to go see it, the first thing you said was, wasn't that better than Aliens Resurrection? Yeah. Like, that's the bar to which... I think the movie was a lot better than Aliens Resurrection. Yeah, I agree. In fact, that wasn't the best aliens movies before.

2:50.9

But, I mean, if you think about it,

2:52.1

they're similar in that. They both have kind of a plot, but pretty good photography. And a lot of us, like, almost to the original film as well. Yeah. All right, I got to derailed off my intro. Sorry. But I'm going to keep that in there because it was a good discussion.
