    I liked this episode. No outright laughter (rare though for me), but definitely brought a smile and was enjoyable to watch. Especially liked the "leak" and "no news ARG".

    Funny episode, I liked the bit about THQ at the end. The guy in the pink shirt wouldn't look at the camera. It was really weird.

    Kathleen answered that in the previous thread.

    This is pretty much exactly where I stand. It's a fun watch, not the same kind of humour as the other stuff on PA, so it's a nice compliment to them.

    I feel the same way as well, I hope they continue.

    Same. PA has that rude humor that we so love. Kris and Scott (Scott and Kris) are irreverent. And LRR employ [strike]polite[/strike] Canadian humor. Getting all three in one place is great for PATV. Now all we need is a snarky game reviewer and The Escapist will have a real competitor for my time.

    I think they found their "groove thang" on this one.

    The timing is oh so much better. Short punchy jokes and good pacing on both Graham and Kathleen's parts.

    PRO-ject. augh canada! It's pr'ah'-ject. America f yeah.

    I dunno. I think I need to read me some subtitles or closed captioning. Might just be the accent or whatever, but I still don't catch all that's being said. And I have to move focus from the mini titles scrolling by and all that; it's hard to get everything. It's more of a personal thing than something I'd rather have changed. Uh, other than wanting subtitles or cc :D.

    But otherwise great episode. I agree with the others that you guys are hitting your groove. If you didn't improve any more than this i'd be fine with it hanging around patv. But I still hope you guys keep improving :D

    kathleen's shirt is way better this episode than the other two. it looks like a normal shirt.

    Their accents are barely noticeable to me. Pika needs to go get his hearing checked.

    In America.

    Where you have to pay for that.

    Also, Canadian fashion (I couldn't resist):

    It might be a western Canadian thing. Here on the east coast, I mostly hear people refer to the NES and SNES as 'En-Ee-Ess', and 'Super Nintendo' (with a few saying it as 'Ess-En-Ee-Ess'). I always thought 'Super Nes' was more of a British thing.

    This is interesting, I would never have imagined that how you refer to the Super Nintendo Entertainment System could be a regional thing like soda vs. pop vs. whatever.

    I'll be honest, nobody I knew as a kid felt it necessary to add "Entertainment System."

    Not like a lot of us were using Nintendo Brand Playing Cards.

    Sness sounds like a race of lizardmen. As in, our village elder had his ass fisted by the S'ness.
