MAP Episode 75: Phoning It In

You *may* be an Inconsiderate Gus or an Unkind Gus, but you may not be a Rude Gus.

Seriously. Don't.

With piss-poor news and scorching weather, the podcast panel is too knackered to think of anything witty or interesting to fill the time with. Lusipurr does his best to fill out the hour using every gimmick he can think of, but the panelists resist.

    HAHA, I love the picture!

  2. Lusipurr says:

    Courtesy of RootBeerKing!

  3. DanChiSao says:

    Very nice picture.

    @Biggs I would like to keep my fingers intact. Thank you. I nominate Oliver Motok as my proxy.

    @Lusi I just had a very similar argument about liking relaxing at home reading books on Friday.

  4. Lusipurr says:

    @Dan: Why leave home at all? I can’t take my books, my cat, my piano, and my games! Better to just stay here, then.

    *sigh* you know it’s a shame that most of the Lusipurr.com staff can’t appreciate what collasul news it is that YazMat has come back to make another game.

    The megaphone has dissapointed me…

  6. SiliconNooB says:

    I’m happy and excited to have him back.

  7. breaka666 says:

    at least NooB and Lusi have good taste.

  8. RootBeerKing says:

    Haha, you used the picture! Good stuff.

    We love Lady Gaga and Nate “Bup” Liles! May he smite those who deny his greatness!

    -@Lusi: “Let Us Cling Together” was the subtitle of the SNES version, while “Wheel of Fortune” is the subtitle of the PSP version (it’s not a regional thing). IMO “Person of Lordly Calibre” is their finest subtitle to date.

    -I’ve never bought a virtual item.

    -I’ve got a Rondo of Blood coming out my Wii!

    -FFXIII piano collections: do not want.

    -I don’t like leaving my house.

  11. Lusipurr says:

    @SN: Beg to differ, but the press release says otherwise: the title differences are regional. The JP title for the remake is Wheel of Fortune, and it is being brought over here (and to PAL regions) under the original title of Let Us Cling Together.

    The press release can be found at: http://release.square-enix.com/na/2010/07/23_01.html

    The official Playstation Blog also reports: http://blog.us.playstation.com/2010/07/22/tactics-ogre-let-us-cling-together-coming-to-psp/

    And the wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tactics_Ogre

  12. SiliconNooB says:

    Ah, my mistake. I had only read the Tactics Ogre info from its Famitsu unveiling, and didn’t expect them to change the subtitle so quickly (it’s just as well that they did not call it Wheel of Fortune though).

    I had just figured that you were confusing new and old with regional differences, but it seems they’ve just re-badged it for the Japanese market (where it’s well known) and left it as is for the West (where it is not).

    Stephen Fry is the epitome of what it means to be British. And I love Lady Gaga.

  14. Bup says:

    You forgot to say you love me, kenjujujujujujujujujuju

    @SN/Lusi – They may have run into some copyright issues here with the phrase “Wheel of Fortune.” They could rebrand it something like “Fortune’s Wheel”, but that doesn’t sound as catchy.

    @KJJ – That WOULD explain why Lusi knows so much about him :D

    @Bup – I love Lady GaGa, but you can go shit on a dick!
