    Have a great weekend guys! Had a great time this afternoon watching you guys stream for the extra life charity.

    Best part was when Sid and Ryan started screaming when playing Alien Isolation, I couldn’t stop laughing! =)

    Take care! =)

    could you guys at sony, please release a launch trailer for freedom wars. I think it would be great to advertise the game, I don’t want it to flop because of lack of awareness. this is my game of the year, we’re talking about. vita x freedom wars FTW!!!

    Hi, PLEASE answer my question someone… I wanna spend 100 USD this twesday (28th) buying freedom wars, the unfinished swan and other games after the store update and my question is: Do am I gonna get the 15usd refound if I do that? The “get $15 for spending $100” offer ends the same day and I do wanna get it. Do you have the exact time when the new games are gonna be online to buy them and when the offer is gonna end that day? Thanks in advance :) cya!

    I can’t wait to play music during my games on PS4 via USB. I just bought a USB 8gb drive (super cheap with amazon’s frustration free packaging which is why it’s cheap, u pay mostly for the packing which is why a lot of things are expensive. I learned that in a class i took at my college) Hopefully it’s a good USB that is compatible.

    I got the chance to meet Nick at last weekend’s Gamercamp in Toronto. I hope I wasn’t too annoying…

    So, are any of the Blogcast members planning on sinking some time into Freedom Wars on Vita and/or PSTV? I’d be interested to hear some feedback on the game in future episodes of the show, not least in terms of how it handles with the Vita’s control set on that OLED (or LCD), relative to using a DualShock 3 or 4 on a TV screen.

      Ah, he told me that somebody had a bunch of hardcore questions! ^_^ Definitely looking to check out Freedom Wars on PS Vita

    @4:
    I believe that the sale actually ends at 12:00 on October 28th. It lasts TO the date, apparently, not THROUGH it. If you want the extra $15 that badly, I think that you have to spend the full $100 before Tuesday.

    “I am William Wallace. And I see a whole army of my countrymen, here in defiance of tyranny! You have come to fight as free men. And free man you are! What will you do without Freedom Wars? Will you fight?”
    “Two thousand against ten?” – the veteran shouted.
    “No! We will run – and live!”
    “Yes!” Wallace shouted back. “Fight and you may die. Run and you will live at least awhile. And dying in your bed many years from now, would you trade all the days from this day to that for one chance, just one chance, to come back here as young men and tell our enemies that they may take our lives but they will never take our FREEDOM WARS!”

    Sid, great advice yesterday: “you have to make sound effects to do extra damage, BOOSH!”

    @souledge94 im pretty sure its to keep the 29.99 price otherwise the game would have been more expensive, having to pay all the voice actors and what not would increase the translation costs. i honestly have no problem with subs, proabaly because of watch anime for so long now in subs lol XD

    Anyways nice blogcast guys! Really looking forward to Freedom Wars!! :D

    Also guys, just a heads up but your “recent episodes” list has episodes 128, 129, and 130.
