Tuesday, August 19th, 2008 – running time 58:37

Sublime and puzzling, you must try Braid! Is Tropic Thunder the new funniest movie of the Summer? Does Bionic Commando live up to the nostalgia? A laptop LANparty? We go to Dallas for ROGCon.

Check out the Interactive Episode at VideoClix.tv

This week in Movies:

Get Smart, Love Guru, Step Brothers, and Pineapple Express have come and gone, each making their play for the funniest movie of the summer. Now, in the waning days of the season, Ben Stiller's newest directorial effort, Tropic Thunder throws its hat into the ring. Alex, Dan, and Jeff get some.

Dan uses the new trailer for The Express to discuss sports films. The guys debate what works and what doesn't.

This week in Video Games:

In last couple of weeks, Alex, Dan, and Jeff have played a remarkable number of AAA downloadable titles, including Geometry Wars 2 and Pixel Junk Eden. This week 2 more notable entries dominate the video games segment.

First, the bold, time-bending platformer, The Braid has Jeff saying the word 'fascinating' more times than one would think possible.

And second, the retro-remake of the classic NES game, Bionic Commando, Bionic Commando: Rearmed has all of the guys remembering the arm-grappling days of their youth, and debating the merits of a jump button. Plus:

Alex, Dan, and Jeff take a trip out to Dallas to check out ROGCon!
