Segments

'Couldn't say why exactly, but this episode was wonderful. TRS is an amazingly coordinated and entertaining show. Thanks for all your hard work guys.

I had heard from a friend that Army of Two: 40th Day was quite a letdown. My friends and I were pretty big fans of the first game, and we were looking forward to this quite a lot. Sadly as it approached and we learned more, our interest grew less and less. Finally it came out and one of the friends grabbed it anyways, only to be horribly let down. It seems that almost everything we loved about the first game is either gone (humor) or just poorly executed (co-op). Such a missed opportunity.

The lasertag segment was alright. Sorta seems like Bioware were just trying to copy the bungie jump segment though. Glad you guys had fun. It must have been pretty crazy to film for Mike though! Even so, it pains me that we get no Mass Effect 2 review. I mean, literally, I have a stomach ache right now... although... I suppose that could be from the chicken. Anyways, I know it will be good, and I'm looking forward to picking it up tomorrow after work, but I sooooo wanted to hear you guys rant and rave about it. C'est la vie.

There was not nearly enough 'bro-ing out' during the ARMY OF TWO review.

Jeff and Dan needed to do at least one chest-bump to make it worthwhile.

holy snap

I Have Been To That Laser Tag Place, I Love The Different Characters On Your Suit, Red Was Star Wars, Blue Was Harry Potter, And Yellow Was Super Hero

The lasertag segment made me yearn for my old paintball days.

I just wanted to say, props to Mike for the laser tag segment, must've been a bitch to shoot and edit.

Taking all 5 kids to laser tag this weekend! 3 Vs 3 yeah!

Great episode guys. gonna watch it with the family tonight.

BTW my wife thinks Jeff is a cutie and only watches with me to see him lol.

I right there with you. It's the only reason "my wife" watches too! ;)

Laser Tag segment reminded me of ... LASER TAG! In college there was a strip mall down the road that was decent place, but not as elaborate as that setup. Plus, it was a much smaller room - two sides with a barrier between so it was just shooting and dodging.

LOL here it is - website is perfect - looks like they haven't updated since I was there: http://www.interskate91.com/hadley/laser-tag.shtml

What was great (or horrible) is the fact that me and my friends would be the only ones playing who were above the age of 12. We'd get far too serious about it doing rolls and dives (CARPET OWIE!!) and wipe the floor with these poor kids ... good times tbh. Very reminiscent of the Billy Madison dodge ball scene.

So - basically everything was terrible this week except LASER time. Fun segment - it really called for some horrible Doom (the movie) FPS shot with a bloodied Dan face on the HUD.

The last time I played paintball with my boys in Australia ( 11 years ago ), the 6 of us (all mid 20's,...at the time) went up against a birthday party of 14 little 13-14 yr olds. Only one of them had ever done it before. Boy, did they not like getting hit. Once they all wandered out and got shot, they all turned and hid in their camps, never shooting at us, for fear of getting shot. After that happened, we blitzkrieged them like sitting ducks, fish in a barrel, old people at a bus-stop, etc. I got an old friend who has no problem leaping through your camp like a kamikaze gazelle of paintball death. We were all good, but this one friend of mine had no switch position other than 'charge!'. You wouldn't believe how many of these kids dropped out from cover to shoot him as he ran through the open area in the middle of all their cover. They were popping up everywhere, turning away from the field of play, facing the back of their camp, completely getting cross-friendly-fire all over themselves, to shoot my buddy, and so we, the rest of the team, tore into them again. The next round we hid at our camp, and when they EVENTUALLY approached, we paintball sniped them from places they couldn't even see our bodies.

We took a break, and they were all crying and stunned at how much paintball hurt and the blood and welting and bruising that was happening. Most of them wanted to quit. We actually made it all ok by splitting up the teams with 3 big kids on each side, and we taught them all tactics and strategy and how scars are cool and getting shot is good pain, and it all turned out fun for them.

Playing these kids was to make up for the time we went to the same paintball place and they set us up against 5 serious Army guys 'training'. We played them as seriously as hell and beat them in every setting, but we had one extra guy then them, but he's fat so they shoulda whooped us. First round they were impressed we beat them, second round they got competitive and mouthy, 3rd round they were sad pandas.

Sorry. I miss my boys and paintball day. For you americans playing on gymnasium paintball pillow courses with autofire handheld guns, you have no idea what I'm talking about. I played with a single-shot pump-action in the wild bush (with deer blinds and ghillie suits), in junk-car yards, in trenched fields, in a ghost-town. One setting had a basketball sized lake with a plank of wood going across it.

Ahhh,.. . okay, sorry thread.
