| 0:00.0 | Bion! Bion! Bion! Bion! What's up everyone? Welcome to Podcast Me on Episode 257. I'm one of your host Greg Miller. Alongside the PlayStation. Powerhouse. Ryan Clements. Oh, what a surprise. Too good to be on the show. |
| 0:26.8 | I'm going to get my drivers over. I hear new eggs having a good sale on hard disks. I've got to get some floppy disks. He only does everything, calm or you're already. Bion indeed. And the Dark Knight of News Angel go far. It's me. How are you doing? I'm good. I haven't a long day. It seems like it's stressful. It's mental stressful. We're planning for the big Wii U stuff later this week. Big Wii U stuff later this week. I'm more excited about the iPhone 5 tomorrow. By far, yeah. See what that's all about. I'm going to give a shit about either of those things. What are you talking about? |
| 0:56.8 | I'm not going to get a new iPhone. No, I'm going to buy iPhone every other cycle. That's what that's smart. That's why I'm excited because I'm on the same plane. I did 3G skip 3s, did 4, skip 4s. See, 4s is the only one I've ever skipped. Like I bought the first one at lunch and then 3g, 3gs and 4s. It's so hard to be on your go. My phone sucks now to the home button. My old roommate was an Apple genius and it's really easy to fix. They just pop off the home button. It's like the little spring thing just has to be fixed. I think we should do it. |
| 1:26.8 | Should we try it? If you break the seal, you're not going to ruin your warranty. No, I mean, we shouldn't do it. But we could go make a, we could go make an appointment with the app store. What do I get? I'm getting a new one here and I'm like five days away. I'm going to find one probably forever. I don't know what an online. Yeah, it always works for Kekaris. Do the thing where they deliver it to you. Yeah, that's the best. Well, I mean, like, well, you don't order it online and then go get it. That's what most, yeah. I mean, you don't, don't like pre-order it at an Apple store or an AT&T store. Like, have it. Oh, you could do that. Yeah, I was going to, yeah, go. You're going to go pre-order something at Montgomery Ward. Yeah, I was like, what's the time? I don't know. I put it |
| 1:56.8 | all the way away. It's one of those things like this will be my first time ever participating in Apple day at IGN. Where? Because what happens is every time there's an iPad or whatever, at least it wasn't the old days. I don't know when Craig was still here, everybody else, everybody ordered these goddamn things in Pablo would wheel through like Santa with his little thing filled with iPads and giving them out to everybody. And you get an iPad and you get an iPad and you don't. We're so rich. I know. And you get it. It's funny. That's what we always talk about, right? Well, if we got paid for games, you should see how we live. Well, it's just the money we do have. We spend on worthless. |
| 2:26.8 | And then we go back to our barren studio apartments. I don't know when I hoard my money. You've admitted that you were you were spending too much here recently. Yeah, get a little out of control. You're while and out like you can't even over there. You know, I do that out of control. Yeah, I live comfortably, but I have no savings. I don't put any money away. I was starting to and then I got cancer. I've almost got it done. I've almost got it done. I've reached the, you know, the out of pocket maximum for a year in a month of treatment. I got that liquidity son liquidity. Yeah. I don't know that. |
| 2:56.8 | All right. You're like, you're like a superhero made of liquid. Oh, that's nice. Like Alex. You got to diversify. Yeah, exactly. There you go. Oh, I see. You're liquid. Yes, it's a liquid. Okay. Yeah. Okay. She's on madman now. Larissa. Yeah. Yeah. She showed up. And everybody's like, is that I was like, is that? I was like, is that? No, she looks too old. I think I probably want to tip me off on Twitter. I'm like, oh, you can always rely on him. Yeah. A little to thin for a while. He knows everything about everything television. Yeah. Good. I know for for the know what all this that Mike Mitchell is for football. Scott Bromley is for pop culture. Yeah. And Scott Bromley. |
| 3:26.8 | No, it's pop culture. Oh, I'm like, Mike Mitchell just makes it up and try exactly. He knows everything. All right. Cool. Oh, shit. Oh, shit. I didn't know about running back. Everybody welcome to IGN.com's PlayStation podcast. Somehow the number one PlayStation podcast on the Internet. The one time we check. Let's kick it off with what is in forever. We'll be the ropper report. Time for some news. There are no items on the list. That's bullshit. There it is. That's probably let's get it on. Let's get it on. Yeah. |
| 3:56.8 | I forgot to mention the top of the show. You picked a good one listeners. I already have I already knew this was going to be a great episode. Yeah. You ever get you get the feelings because rise on here. Yeah, probably the one dark cloud over. We're rolling. We're talking about trophies, talking about Metal Gear, talking about this and all of a sudden. Well, you know, when I was playing Guild Wars last night, one of a K-pop thing popped up every time you played. Oh, yeah. What do you want for trophy notification? A K-pop video. Okay, Clemens. Get the fuck out of here. Yes. Number one. |
| 4:26.8 | PlayStation three has been enabled. It's called what is it called Greg remote play. They call it a worthless function from the PSP carried over to the Vita to be even more. I don't think it's worth it. With the God of War collection and team eco collection. This means that eco shout out of the class. It's God of War and God of War two are all playable on Vita. If you're within a Wi-Fi range of PS3 are two and L2 have been mapped to the back. That's touch pad. I think it's kind of I think it's really neat because consider this on Sunday on this Sunday. The Bears and the Packers plan Thursday. So we'll watch that game. On Sunday. One I'll be in the living room. And I'll be |
| 4:56.8 | watching the Jets and the Steelers and Jets of course will beat the Steelers. Yeah. Now what occurs at this point is that you either watch the game. You're a little wishy watching about watching football games sometimes. I have to I have to admit. We are we committed that we're going to do every Thursday. I have to say but like when there's a local game on where just watching a game a little with little wishy watching. Yeah, it opens on my mood. So let's say you don't want to watch the Jets and the Steelers the Jets are routing the Steelers. It's like a boring game. Yeah, okay. And then and so you were like I'm going to play team eco collection and you put it in your PS3 and you're sitting on the couch next to me and Portillo's there like Mitchell's asleep still. |
| 5:26.8 | Yeah. And you're playing it on your on your Vita and you're interrupting anything. Nothing's happening. I'm still watching the game. We get the best of both worlds. I kind of like it. I like it too. It's just one of those things of fine. If we're going to do this. Let's fucking get it to work and do it with every game. I want to play borderlands to this weekend. If that is the possible on the Vita more power to you. If I can sit on the couch next to you and do some borderlands stuff at the same time. Great. Or on the toilet. I just want to play shadow of the closet while I'm pooping. That's the only time you want to play it. Yeah, straight pooping. You're like you're done by the time you get everything booted up. |
| 5:56.8 | You're not been working. Yeah. Why are you pooping pants? Yep. Also, this is what I leave you T's my little big planner of you guys live tomorrow. I was talking about it in the closing comments. How, you know, it's you can now get a little big. The problem is a little big planet before right. If I want to ace a story level or if I want to get all these creation things or whatever. You never turn on your PS3 and do it and a little big planet create is great. You know, I'm doing the wrong. I love it. But it's one of those things where I don't know if I just want to dedicate my time to that. I want a multitask. Now when I'm watching something with you or doing something and there's a lot of downtime. You can be trying. I can be trying to ace levels. |
| 6:26.8 | I can do all sorts of stuff. Yeah, it's good. I mean, the one concern I do have about this is that they had to actually go back and like patch these games. Yeah, which means this is just something that's like ubiquitous and it should be. Yep. Well, yeah, that would be great as a former update for every game. I agree. Like if the technology is there, I don't understand why it would be game specific. I mean, I guess the patch must literally just be to map those buttons to the back basically to map the R2 functionality. Yeah, there might be some aspect ratio. Yeah, number two. PS3's firmware update 4.25 is upon us. We don't know. |
| 6:56.8 | What specific fixes it comes packing, but we do know that this update will turn on the new PlayStation Plus perk announced a gamescom a huge increasing cloud storage. Nice from 150 megabytes to a full gig. I just about filled months. This comes in a good time. It is good. I mean, some of those saves get really huge sports games saves. Well, I mean, now can be used. I think more for being a lifeboat at all times, right? Like it's one of those things where before I was, you know, in our professional capacity. It's great for well, I'm reviewing this game. I need to play home. I don't want to bring home a system. I can do that. But I think in the fact of like, you know, my PS3 dad a few months ago, because you killed it. |
| 7:26.8 | And it's one of those things. Obviously, now I can just put the whole hard drive on there on top of the backup I have that has on my I really murdered the PS3 to end. Yeah, I was so much. Why did you use you know. Yeah, what my favorite part about the cloud saving frankly is being able to put saves from debugs to retail because that's the best. That's the best January. Number three, the PC game terraria is coming to PSN and XBLA in early 2013. It's sold over 1.5 million copies on PC. It's a side scrolling action adventure game set in a sort of open world and should fit. |
| 7:56.8 | Nicely on console. I'm very excited about that. It's supposed to be awesome. Yeah, everyone loves it. A rom from Atlas tweeted and he's super excited about it. And I was like, well, this is an arom game. It's got to be good. Not that he's wrapping it. Yeah, if I play games, of course, of naughty bear fame is not a naughty Nicole. And he still love that game also. Not even. Well, that maybe that one too, but that's right. Oh, terrain. Number four Nicole. I actually was ahead of his time. Yeah, he was before. That's the one. Yeah. It's too soon. Number four. We're doing two mechramans or class as a price and date. It will launch. |
| 8:26.8 | On October 16th and cost $9.99. But this is the one if you pre-order Borderlands to you get it for free. Yep. So get on that because you're going to buy Borderlands to no matter what. I'm so. Borderlands. Borderlands. Number five. What's your plan with that? Huh? What's your plan with that? I don't have. I'm taking home. I'm going to play right away. Do we have more copies? I thought we didn't. Isn't that the plan that you and I were getting? No, I know. I mean, I'm going to be talking about wish you watching. Probably be a little wishy-washy about it. I'm going to tell you why. Because I'm playing Ratchet and Clank collection. Yeah. First of all, those games are fucking awesome. Let's just get that out of the way. I don't think it's not next ever made a bad game. |
| 8:56.8 | And resistance, too. No. Take it back. How can you talk to Marcus like that? Marcus. And I just I'm playing the original Ratchet and Clank. I understand people have some problems with the controls, like going command or kind of stream lines, everything a little bit. But that game is so fucking good. That game is so good. It is funny. It's got great characters. They really know what they're doing over there. I'm really glad. So I'm working on planning the original Ratchet HD. We'll see. I want to do at least the first one. And then we're going to be wishy-washy about Borderlands. |
| 9:26.8 | Maybe you should like Greg take home one copy and I'll take the other PS3. Because we only got two PS3 copies. I'm probably going to take one of them and I'm probably not going to let you play it. That's the problem. See, that's where I think you're running to problems. Well, if there's an online pass in there. Right. Yeah. No, I don't know. I don't know. If there is, I will be taking the online pass. We didn't even play online. Just going to do it anyway. We'll sort it out. We'll sort it out. Number five. What would you have something to say? Yeah. Some kid are written in about the Ratchet and Clank collection. But I don't think it made it to the final cut here, apparently. Okay. |
| 9:56.8 | Too bad. Number five. But that's the confirm that it's working with Sony to try to fix Skyrim's now notorious issues on PlayStation 3, which are also apparently plaguing the company's ability to bring its DLC to Sony's console. But now Sony is confirmed on its own that it is too, that it is too, that it too is, sorry, that it too is working with the. A to A to squarely placing the blame on Bethesda by noting that the company is working, quote, to try to solve their problems. And what you and I did a game scoop about this. You know, games use moved to its video format. |
| 10:26.8 | Do you want to do one of the additions? Oh, here he is. Look at the castle. Lord of the manner. Hi, Ryan. Hi. How you doing? I am excellent. We did a game scoop about this video. I'll now embed in the podcast me on article to make sense of it all. What's your takeaway from this? The Sony now saying they're working with them. I think Sony's trying to make it clear. That's not their fault. Yeah. That's about it. I don't think it's going to work. Whatever they're doing clearly taking nine months for them to try to get this far. I'm so I'm so over that situation. Number six. |
