Watch it here!

Just a thought, would Desert Bus be considered not-a-game by the SGA?

Aurich

Final Fantasy XIII-2 should have a feature which lets you pay to remove characters you don't like from the game.

Falx

You should be able to go into the game files and just delete characters, and then the game will pop in Biff the Understudy.

Or since this is a Japanese game, Biff-kun.

Edit: Alternatively, the future of DLC... Deletable Content. Pay for a small patch that lets the character of your choice die permanently in some embarrassing fashion.

Team "Bondy"? Seriously, "Bondy"?

Poor Serious Games. I don't know much about their in-house ventures, but in the training industry their role has been to encourage a "games as training" approach to courseware; which I can appreciate. They still have a ways to go, but they've come a long way from suggesting crossword puzzles as the height of educational gaming.

Sorry for pronouncing it like a North American.
I bet Aussies would pronounce a whole ton of Canadian place names "wrong".

Edit: Wow, that sounded WAY more callous than I meant it to.
Sorry, I've been getting a startling amount of flack over this.

Would you believe that more people have angrily messaged me about "Bondi" than for anything I said about FF7?

Ashoka

Haha, it's all good Graham. It's more amusement than anything approaching anger. To be fair, the alcohol-infused, sun-scorched corpses that end up face down on the sand of Bondi Beach are largely Brits, Irish and other assorted Europeans rather than North Americans. It just detracted a little from your sweet droppage of caribou in Ep. 38.

We pronounce Moose Jaw "Mouse Jam"

Meh, it's nothing worth getting upset aboot.

Hey, Graham! This is completely unrelated, but I recently heard Health Canada's automated phone menu, and while I haven't been able to find evidence, that's totally you doing the voice-menu, right?

Nope, but now I need to call them and hear this for myself!
