Podtoid 214: Spider Sex Chamber  photo

On this week's Podtoid, the gang invents an all-new (and voodoo-flavored) videogame convention, Willem Dafoe becomes the Dragon Tsar of Russia, and Jonathan Holmes is made to read the packaging for an unfortunate Miley Cyrus love doll. Meanwhile, a Dog Daughter is born for our delight. 

As if that wasn't enough, we chat about Symphony, Dust: An Elysian Tail and The Last Story. Oh, and did you know you're wrong to call the Wii U controller a tablet? You will find out why in the most frustrated debate ever contrived! All this and more, only on Podtoid.

I don't know why, but there something that keeps making me come back to Podtoid each week and I can't deduce what it is. I think it might be Holmes just trying to make sense of it all.

So I got The Last Story today.

Just saying. I may or may not take issue with your sensationalist review. I shall see.

Oh no, not the damn tablet debate. Going to be frustrating to listen to indeed. Just thinking about it hurts my mind. Holmes, let it go man. It'll make your life so much happier.

Oh damn it, I knew the tablet thing would come up as soon as Holmes wrote that article. I can already tell I'm going to be skipping that section when I listen to it.

Just give it to me straight: is this the 'art games' debate all over again? There are few things more infuriating than a debate where someone gets super hung-up on use of a word despite the fact that everyone else uses the word that way.

I was slightly disappointed at the lack of talk on gamescom and knowledge about All-Stars. Then again, this is Podtoid.

- Sir Dan was pretty much confirmed via some files in the Beta in which Ratchet, Spike, Sackboy and new Dante were discovered in.
- Patapon is the secondary game merged with the Hades stage.
- A LocoRoco stage was also in the Beta leak.
- Toro is Sony's Japan Mascot, so Parappa isn't the only Japanese character.

But yeah, good episode. JonCon needs to be a thing. With Pimp Conrad strolling along the floor shouting 'Where's my money!?'.

Because not liking furries totally means that I hate everyone else, but am too afraid to admit it. Seriously?

I've come across plenty of furry crap without seeking it out, thank you very much.
Although I've recently encountered some good artists and really cool people who were furries; I don't hate the whole fandom, just the obnoxious members. And some of those fox people can be creepy.

Ursu, you're the one choosing to read that personally into it.

Maybe I am, I apologise if it sounded angry.

You can still hate gays and blacks freely on the internet, it's not like you have to compromise by hating furries!

I love it when you guys read from novelty sex toy packaging. Have you ever considered asking Holmes to read from [url=flops.bad-dragon.com/]Bad-Dragon.com[/url]? They got some "freak nasty" stuff there 0_0

Overall I didn't like this weeks episode. Hopefully next weeks episode is better.

I hate the word "voodoo." Mostly because it makes me think of a particularly insipid Godsmack song.

Of course, the correct classification for the Wii U controller is gimmick, not tablet.

WesFX: So you only just got the game but preemptively decided my review was "sensationalist." That's a pretty sensationalist statement, my friend.

@Jonathan Holmes
Thank you for the compliment but I don't think my comments are anything special. Big fan of your work. You have an insightful perspective and you're knowledgeable, and I'm always interested in what you have to say. I also think you have great taste.

Also, the reason I did not like this episode was not because of you. For me you're the main reason I listen to podtoid. Anyway, keep up the great work.

I forgot to mention you're an extremely nice and genuine person, and you respond to a lot of people on twitter, which I find admirable. I hope I did not weird you out with the compliments.
