Episode 132B – The End of the Year




The Distracted Gamers show

Summary: <a href="http://www.sigmish.com/podcasts/video_games.png" target="_self" title="View the full Bracket"></a> Now that Christmas is over and you are looking for something to fill the void in your life that can only be filled by next Christmas, you have time to listen to the DG Podcast. We promise not to change your life, but we will laugh at you whether you like it or not. It's one of the many free services we provide. You're welcome What's Going On With Christmas just ended, Rhett and Jason talked a little about the gifts they either gave or received this year. Rhett got a handcrafted box fron Lindsay (it is way cooler than it sounds). He also got a hat from his mother. The had used to belong to his grandfather when he was in the navy. All in all he was pleased with his gifts. Jason was also pleased with his gifts. He got a book by one of his favorite authors. He also got Arkham City. He has yet to play the game. Hes's been playing the games that his kids received, one of which was Duck Tales Remastered. The End of the Year We promise to be more organized for the final podcast of the year. Jason was in charge and you know how that goes. We talk about this and that, mostly Star Wars the Force Awakens and Cryptids. Yes, we are rehashing Star Wars. There is a lot of blind love for this movie and we feel the need to inject a little reality into the mix. The cryptids are one of the things that appeals to Jason. He likes reading about UFO, conspiracy theories, cryptids, and unexplained phenomena. If you don't know what a cryptid is you have earned a desultory shake of the head. Cryptids are things like bigfoot, the Loch Ness monster, the Jersey Devil, and others. There are certainly more things in Heaven and Earth than are dreamt of in your philosophy, but the fact that we have no proof, or highly suspect proof at best, of these beast should give us a hint don't you think? Legendary Battle of the Classic Video Game Characters The time has finally come for the throw down between Earthworm Jim and Sam and Max. We gave some clarification on the comicvine post and we are ready to rumble. Jim is an earthworm wearing a supersuit. It gives him superstrength, a blaster, and a pocket rocket. He can also use his head/body as a weapon/implement. Sam and Max are the Freelance Police and are not afraid to take the law into their own hands. Max is crazy and hard to control. Sam is a six foot tall anthropomorphic dog who carries a big gun. Who wins? Next week Sir Arthur from Ghost and Goblins will fight to the death against Strider Hiryu.
