The Player 1 Podcast Topic

I got an iPhone 6 Plus over the regular 6 and I regret it every day. It's nice when I'm actually using it, but it's an unwieldy inconvenience in all other circumstances. For something I intend to have on my person at all times, bigger is not better for me.

That said, I'm not too concerned about the New 3DS issue right now because Nintendo has yet to show me why I would want either of them yet.

I think there's a certain type of person who will find it perfect, but I think that's a small-ish market.

I used to think that the old iPhone 4/5 form factor was as big as I'd need. It was sufficient, but I think that 4.7" range is just about right for most users. I moved to a Nexus 4 1.5 years ago... same 4.7" size... I think it's just right. (For the record, I still prefer iOS)
 
I've been using the HTC One for a while now, and I love it. But I wish it were smaller. I might switch to one of the compact-size Xperia phones soon.

Thanks for the kind words, guys. This eyebrow deficiency has haunted me my whole life.
On the plus side, you didn't even appear to be shocked when they told you. "Damn, this bitch is ice cool", they said. "Perhaps we made a mistake letting this calm-under-pressure guy go..."
 
So, I think I'm finally going to try and do it myself since no one else has done it for me...

I'm going to make a P1P clip show in the style of the This Year podcast. I've already posted a bunch of my favorite moments, but if anyone else wants to get in on this, PM me episode numbers and approximate timestamps of your favorites.

It was the fucking Super Bowl. I have no idea why sports superfan Rich Grisham wasn't watching it.

Three words: Patriots versus Seahawks

Ick.

(I still watched it - and to be fair it was a good game... and I was happy to see the Hawks go down)
 
Rich is a consummate professional and understands the importance of timely podcast. Naturally he would be there for the P1P. Unlike that famousmortimer fellow he cohosts with who hasn't put out a Doddcast in weeks!
 
I think doddscientifics was pretty much a bust for him, unfortunately.
The last show I listened to mentioned that he was going to try to rebrand everything to remove his name from the site, so we'll see how it goes.

I imagine it can't be heartening to see IGN guys and Sterling rake in thousands a month on Patreon though.
 
For camera control, Face buttons act exactly the same as using a stylus in this demo. Weird complaint.

I said that as well but I think the face buttons merely change the direction your character is facing and pitches up/down. It's basically the same by function but slightly different results.
 
I was not able to notice any difference. I was able to strafe, aim high/low, and do anything I would've wanted with the face buttons.
 
Hope someone (namely Sewart) tries out Life Is Strange. I think it's in his woodshed.
 
I think doddscientifics was pretty much a bust for him, unfortunately.

Seems like it, I have an account on the site and it hasn't been updated in awhile, and the boards are pretty dead.

Pete's had a pretty rough year though, hopefully he'll be back once things settle.


It doesn't seem like Phil has a schtick right now. The upcoming Jurassic World and Star Wars movies will likely provide some good material, but what until then? What's the Patreon goal to finance R&D of a new character or voice?

Well, that depends.





Depends on what kinda dinosaur they cooked up in that lab.
