Nick, Chessa, Jason H, and Jason R talk about CAPtivate, Final Fantasy XIII, and invite you to play some Gamecube, bro.
The crew talks about the games we've been playing and share what we anticipate most out of CAPtivate 2010.
Jason R leads off with a discussion of two games he's played recently, Guitar Hero: Aerosmith and The Beatles: RockBand, and leads into a discussion about the differences between the two franchises.
Jason H then takes over and shares a bit about his opinion of Batman: Arkham Asylum, and later, the StarCraft 2 beta.
Chessa jumps in and brings her newly discovered opinions of stealth-based games with Splinter Cell: Conviction, and Penny-Arcade earns a shout-out for all the shout-outs.
Nick brings everything together with a discussion about Final Fantasy XIII's faults and merits, and with it came another reference to Penny-Arcade. He concludes the first segment with a discussion of Just Cause 2 as well as its mystery zeppelin.
Part two of the podcast begins with a discussion of CAPtivate and ends with a little bit of Urban Dictionary, so watch out!

Podcasters seemed more chipper this time, makes for better discussion IMO.
I had the same experience with Nightfire on Gamecube. It had the same broken-record-baddies (who even cut each other off like you described), and in Chinese no less... I felt like more like a Vietnam POW than James Bond. Any functioning human being who playtested it should have caught that.
I think we're always a bit chipper to talk about the little things that annoy us with various games. That could very well be why.
We would've been extra chipper had we had listener mail!
