Unexpected show today, Major. Good thing I have off tomorrow. :D
Thanks maj have fun at TGS!
Maj--
Okay, explain why you don't like Drew Carey!!
Yes, I do like Bob Barker's TPiR as well, but the last few years of his run were obscenely slow-paced. After Rod Roddy died, it never really felt the same!
And BTW, that was a HILARIOUS story about your wife beating you at The Price Is Right for Wii.

lol WHOA this show caught me off guard by its earlyness
Hahaha... interesting show, Major. Thanks for the recipes Major and e. Major, you NEED Kirby Super Star Ultra on your DS. OH, OH, and in Japan, pick up Ouendan 1 & 2 (Elite Beat Agents) over here in the U.S. Ouendan's a fun, little rhythm game developed by the LIPS guys that requires no reading whatsoever. And Tetris DS... everyone knows and loves Tetris. ^_^
This is a very pleasant suprise on a rainy weekend.
Do you leave the water boiling for 3 hours?
Thanks Major!
Forgot the part list from E
Wow. Caught me off-guard when I saw the Twitter post. Awesome to see it early, I'm going to be very busy tomorrow.
Great show can't wait for the nxe. Hey major are you going to make it so you can change the colour and transparency of the orb thing at the bottom of the page on the nxe because I personally think that if you did, you would make loads of people happy. Also can't wait to get viva pinata sounds amazing from all the things ive heard about it.
Although if it didn't i wouldn't be mad because it really desn't bother me but I know some people may be annyed at it.
p.s. sorry for the double post guys
The second showcase is not always better. I'm miss Bob, Drew Carey is ok.
This interview has got me really interested in the Zune. I'm downloading the software now - I didn't think I'd ever want to replace my Gigabeat, but if this software wins me over, maybe.
Well as a follow-up to that, I won't be getting a Zune - it's still not available anywhere outside of the US and Canada. Why, exactly?
Let's just hope that Major doesn't become obsessed with The Price is Right and misplace (lose?) his passport again. Looking forward to hearing about TGS this year. Enjoy.
e never gave me his parts list. I'll try to get that from him and add it in.
Great show, Major and e. Nice to get one early too! :-)
woah, nice and early today Major, going to look forward to this one later, there appears to be some interesting topics :)
shame about the 2 wekk gap till next time *sob* must find something to do... /jk
Thanks for the early podcast Major - I've been stuck in the office on my own today and it's the only thing keeping me sane!! As a footnote, could you please add a note to any further info about the Zune for the countries that *can't* get one to just skip the next 5 minutes? I waited an age to see if they would launch in the UK and ended up getting a Zen. All the info you keep giving out about how cool they are just makes me sad...
@ anon 2 The music used in the podcast is 'Holy Thursday' by David Axelrod
Major, thanks NOT taking the time to mention that Zune is only in the US so therefore only you lot can download the software and link your GT with it, yet you were happy to mention 12 million members on XBL! and same go's for the GTA Weekend! US only!
anyways, great show as always, love how random it gets :)
Bad Company I'd like to see VIP style or excape mode where I can see us in a Jeep driving away from tanks and bad guys as we try and excape from the other team. Something were we can have to go in and get the down player or pilot something where we have to go in get it and get out. Maybe we have to excape with the gold and get back to our base.
