Okay, I thought it was just my lazy ass family that used to cheat and kneel down in front of that Nintendo pad and beat on it physically. It’s comforting to know that this is a bit more universal than I thought.
Also, Crank, I’m not sure “I’ve never had a problem with his work” counts as gushing.

Groble! I’m gunning for your job!

32:53 – best laugh ever

I’m not sure when it happened but Crank has become a lot more confident with this presenting thing, he was very entertaining on this show. I liked the part where he asked mike why he was making it about him. genious.
keith will never steal my job

First of all, the Wii-mote is dangerous. I’m glad Groble is back, no one else compliments my eloquence. Will you please send us a voice-mail with your Jude Law story?
January 10th, 2007 at 2:47 pm
I’m glad you didn’t think it was creepy unlike some people (I’m looking at you McSellout)
hmmm we’ll see about the voicemail, but for the jude law story just go and watch The Holiday
January 10th, 2007 at 2:50 pm
ooooh McTraitor I like it
January 10th, 2007 at 3:12 pm
I shall, Groble. I shall!
January 10th, 2007 at 3:43 pm
Damn, I was talking over Crank like a motherfucker. Sorry, Crank.

McKeever exclusive to DC! No! No more Waiting Place!
Waiting Place 3: The Revenge… no more!
How will the industry survive!?
January 10th, 2007 at 4:18 pm
Congratulation! And I look forward to reading you in the pages of DC, Mr. McKeever!
Crank and Mike keep up the good work!

nope im not wally rose.

I’m sure Waiting Place 3: The Revenge is a better title than Waiting Place 2: Electric Boogaloo
January 10th, 2007 at 6:13 pm
I’m declaring a moritorium on anything “________ 2: Electric Boogaloo”.
That joke’s older than Crank’s mom.
January 10th, 2007 at 7:04 pm
I think Mike just pwned me. . . Not owned, but internet pwned.
January 10th, 2007 at 7:46 pm
Congrats, Sean!
I’m a big Mac geek, but I’m with Crank: the AppleTV seems completely useless to me. There’s no way in hell that I need ANOTHER box to hook to my TV just for the privilege of buying movies through iTunes instead of playing the DVDs I already own. The only way I would have considered it is if they’d included DVR capabilities so that it would replace my TiVo.
January 10th, 2007 at 9:11 pm
I’m also going to put a moritorium on myself. No more using the term pwned.
January 11th, 2007 at 9:13 pm
Wow … lotta comments.
Keith: I’m lazy so it’s only natural I wouldn’t bother actually running for a game, I only run if something is chasing me … and I wasn’t gushing, honest.
Groble: You are now the proud holder of the title of first person to ever call me genius that wasn’t me. Congrats and welcome back!
Jenny: you know we love you, even if we have a hard time expressing it by saying you are eloquent … Groble was just being creepy. I keed, I keed … b/c I love. I’m overflowing with boundless love.
Sean: no worries, you were the guest. I can ramble any time.
Will: what we didn’t say is that I’m actually going to write “the Waiting Place: a Return to Snow” under Sean’s direction, thus loopholing the contract. Again I keed … it’ll actually be “Waiting Place 3: Godot Arrives! (and has a drink with Guffman)”
Wally: don’t let not being Wally Rose mislead you, thanks for writing just the same
Mike: I still hate you … and saying something is older than my mom is older than your mom.
Asgardian: are we just geeks? I mean c’mon … the thing looks crippled and useless when you could just get a mini to do the same thing.
ever yours,
crank!

Some fun shows guys. thanks again.
You havent played Wii yet? very fun.
I’ve only tried out the sports games that come with the system
and the other mini game pack that comes with the extra control.
Tennis and baseball are probably the most excercise.
10 pin bowling is a heap of fun with a few people.
havent got to try zelda out but have seen my friend playing it..
cool puzzles and all the little gadgets and gizmos you expect from a zelda game.
good luck with Pullboxonline.com.

oh yeah, the emulation of sega mega drive and pc engine games is handled very well.
bonk’s adventure and devil crash pinball.
i think i remember you talking about comic zone too?
that was pretty fun when i played the rom a while back.
its you basic 80’s side scroll punch repeat routine but done quite well.
the moving from frame to frame looked good..
i recomend just seeing it in action if you havent.
someone might have made a utewb vid up or something.
January 12th, 2007 at 9:50 am
cool, found a vid where someone goes through the whole game.
Comix Zone – – >
