Yo, Megas is sick! Wish they got around to making that 3rd season
I think Gundam Wing is supposed to be a good starting point as it's sort of a reboot(?)

First Gundam, G Gundam, Gundam Wing, 08th MS Team.
Pretty much anything other than the Seed series.

We all dig giant robots man
There's Aldnoah Zero. It's one of the new animes of this season another really awesome Urobuchi anime.
Also Bokurano. Kinda like Evangelion from what I've heard.

Vandread has a great premisce and is pretty solid. Linebarrels of Iron is another with a cool concept. Valvrave the Liberator is cool. Code Geass is pretty much required mecha viewing at this point. Big-O. The Demonbane manga but particularly the VN. The Gundam main universe stuff is good and so sre a lot of the other ones.
Those are the ones off the top if my head, I actually suggest starting with Code Geass, since it will give you the general feel of a Gundam show but isn't a decision as to where to start, it also has great waifus and awesome shit all around, even if it's not perfect, it's still a really fun ride. And Lelouche is like Light from Death Note but not an un likable prick.
I'm not complaining, I got a shitload of videos to catch up.

Aldnoah Zero has the feel of a Gundam series, and since only part 1 is available, is also a good sample of how a Gundam series works.

If you do go with gundam. The Universal Century for Gundam is fucking amazing. 00 though (not in the UC) is probably the best place for gundam newbies to start because the animation is easier on the eyes and it gives you a good indication of what you're getting into. Plus its just a great show in general.
When you do watch the original gundam, make sure you watch the trilogy movie because it cuts the filler from the series and replaces the audio.
Personally, I recommend starting with Full Metal Panic. Easily the best show for mecha newbies to get into since its just a big mix of other genres as well (SoL, comedy, action, a little romance, drama) and it has great voice acting on both sides. Full Metal Panic: The Second Raid (Season 3) is also the greatest anime ever made by Kyoto Animation and just an amazing show.
And Code Geass is incredible as well, though its less of a mecha, and more of a thriller (though it does contain mechas, its not really the focus much of the time, especially in S2).

What was up with the audio quality for everyone but Pat in yesterday's podcast? It's almost like he was recording the show and everyone else was speaking through a telephone.
Also, can Google Chrome users confirm that this is playing in 60 FPS? I'm not exactly seeing it here:

Pretty well, thanks! Aside from the incisions still not being 100% healed, I'm basically back to normal. Like, no side effects whatsoever, it seems.
I never cared enough, I really hate the DS3 controller.
Someone fucked up. It sucks because I always listen to the podcast when driving, and through my car speakers I can only hear pat. I couldn't hear the others at all

Whats wrong with the DS3, I like it.
It's weird, it cuts out sometime and Woolie is really really low sometimes. Speaking of that I need to finish the second half of it.

Pretty sure it is but something does look off with the video. That feature went into private beta awhile ago and I remember watching a BF4 60FPS vid that didn't look off like that.
They're tiny and feel like they could snap in half if I squeezed hard enough. The position of the analog sticks aren't great, they're too close together for me and the triggers can burn in endless depths of hell. The D-Pad and the face buttons are fine though.
DAT SICK LOG BREAK

I'm waiting for the second season to start before getting back into it, but I did really like what I saw.

My hands are smaller than that and the size of the PS3 controller pisses me off.

Oh man dat MK8 music sounds so great at 60FPS. but for real though it seems like it takes a while for 60 to kick in. Also it seems to be only at 720 and higher
Maybe it's because I had been using a 360 controller for about 3-4 years before I touched a PS3 controller but stepping down from an almost perfect controller to the DS3 was a nightmare

You have to set it to 720 or greater, but yeah it's 60.

I still hate the DS3. Unfortunately the only console I still have is a PS3, since that one is the only one with the games I care about, but anytime I have a to play a generic game it's significantly hindered by how much I hate the DS3.

I think ive touched a 360 pad....twice? When I played mass effect and when I played scott pilgrim.
The gamecube controllers the best ever anyway.

I would watch but I haven't played it! I can't watch something I've never played that I have interest in! My energy is with you, though!

You can use the DS4 on a PS3, it's just that the PS button doesn't work.
