Random Vocal Nonsense

On this episode of RVN we talk about GTAIV and the Jack Thompson shenanigans surrounding it, the Team Fortress 2 update that Valve finally got around to releasing, a little rambling about some of the games we’re playing and a few other random tidbits. This episode had absolutely no planning put into it due to general laziness. You may notice that we have two separate conversations about TF2 in this show, which is the end result of technical difficulties that caused us to re-record some things and lazy editing that left some redundant content in. As usual, please note that RVN may contain harsh language so it’s not recommended that you listen to it at work or school unless you have headphones on.

Thanks for listening and feel free to leave us comments here on PodBean, at the atrip.net forums or email Future Man at johnathon (.) brittain (at) gmail (.) com

Show Notes:

There are none. You know, that laziness thing… ¬_¬

  This week on Random Vocal Nonsense we ramble about various entertainment and gaming news items that have been floating around the intertubes lately. On the entertainment side we share our thoughts Iron Man, The Incredible HULK, The Dark Knight (or as Future Man would say, “The Mother Fucking Dark Knight”), and a few other movies. In addition to that we talk a little about the upcoming third season of the fantastic animated show “The Venture Bros,” which was recently previewed at the New York Comic Con (link in show notes).

On the gaming side of things we talk about “Unreal Tournament 3” coming to the Xbox 360 (without mod support, yay!), EA’s survival horror RPG “Dead Space,” “Fallout 3” collector’s edition, Interplay’s plans to return to the gaming scene, the new Mortal Kombat game, and a handful of other tidbits.
