Two suggestions for new games set in the Mass Effect universe:

1. Noir detective game in which you are a C-Sec agent working the gritty streets of the wards in the Citadel. Each one of those arms is the size of a major city. Endless possibilities.

2. Fortune Street reskinned for the Citadel. That's it.

Sometimes the podcast is too long. A three hour podcast every week is excessive if it's not a busy week with lots to talk about.

It's weird that their discussions about games are the least interesting things usually. Let me hear about Vinny's survival guide.

If they shortened up the length of the podcast, it's going to be a stricter discussion about games, not the other way around. Ryan Davis is already known for hitting the brakes during the podcast if they start going off topic for too long, and that's without time restraints. Think about what a podcast with five guys is going to be like if they had to make it an hour shorter.

old podcast:

Ryan: So Vinny, what have you been playing?
Vinny: I bought a flight stick, and (30 minute story)

new, shorter podcast:

Ryan: So Vinny, what have you been playing?
Vinny: I bought a flight stick and I played a game.
Ryan: Neat, and you Patrick?

Who is this Methodis(sp?) that Jeff was addressing in the JarTime? Should I even care at all?

An old and insane GAFfer who got banned years ago and then ran to a bunch of other sites, including Something Awful (where he keeps paying money to get unbanned, though I think they finally perma'd him) and Giant Bomb.

He's insane because, among other eccentricities, he used to post on some Rock Band or Harmonix forum until it got shut down, and he went insane blaming Harmonix. He spends all his time accusing John Drake, Harmonix, and various other companies that have wronged him in his imagination of being corrupt (Giant Bomb is corrupt because they're friends with John Drake), and claiming that he's best friends with people at Activision and Ubisoft and they pay him to post.

So, King of the Internet pretty much?
 
I wonder does the size of the green screen increase how much Vinny freaks out about not getting stains on it?

If so, Vinny will soon be a nervous wreck.

According to Formspring, it does seem like Klepek is interested in doing his own 'Jar time' equivalent.

Good that he's thinking of adding strings to his bow.

I imagine a 'news-guy' who actually puts a bit of time and effort into stories would be first to go when Gamespot decides to start slimming-down the team.

I didn't say they had to shorten the podcast, I said on select weeks it is too long. Certain times finishing the podcast earlier would benefit them and the quality of it.

Sometimes I want a three hour podcast, as long as they're all interested enough in certain topics to make it last that long. I'd listen to a 10 hour podcast if they could maintain it.
