Jake and Mike VGS Podcast Episode 38: The REAL reason there wasn’t online Co-op
by Mike Steele on Sep.04, 2010, under Industry news, Review, personal thoughts, podcast
So I’m writing this before the podcast was even recorded, but guess what? It doesn’t even matter because I can say with 100% certainty that this was the single greatest Jake and Mike ever recorded!(I’m very confident in our ability to recall things we’ve done and then say those things into microphones) I can also say with 100% certainty that Jake and I started kissing at one point in this podcast and had to edit it out so we wouldn’t seem gay. I can say this because it happens every week, and I’ve gotten used to it by now( the kissing part, the editing is a hard thing to get used to) a lot of you might have thought it was because I have psychic powers, but you’d be wrong ( I do have psychic powers though, I’m just not using them to see the future. That’d just be silly. What is this, an episode of Fringe?!)
Anyways… I can also say that we talked about Kane and Lynch 2: Dog days, Dead Rising: Case Zero and Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light (AKA the new Lara Croft game, AKA Dos El-Crofto gigante, AKA Rock Band 3) I would imagine many systematic and informationaly hilarious things were said, most likely by me, but I bet Jake had a few gems of his own as well. (Not really, that dude isn’t funny (Just kidding, He’s really funny (I’m lying about thinking he’s funny(No I’m not, he’s funny(No(Yes))))
So enjoy this episode a day earlier, and consider it to be one of those things that is given to you a day early (Jake is handsome, and So am I. We’re both really handsome. Just ask our mothers.)

Jake and Mike VGS Podcast Episode 37: Web dogs to the max
by Mike Steele on Aug.22, 2010, under Industry news, Review, personal thoughts, podcast
They said it couldn’t be done. BUT WE LOOKED AT THEM AND SAID, “You think we can’t record a podcast with just downloadable titles!! Ones like Scott Pilgrim Vs The world: The Game, Castlevania: Harmony despair and Monday Night Combat, WELL GET READY FOR IT TO HAPPEN!!!” and then we were all like, doing it and stuff and the world was forever proven wrong!!
And then bam, we did it. You ready for it?! ARE YOU?!?!?! Then your prayers are about to be answered!!!

Jake and Mike VGS Podcast Episode 31: Title of the podcast involves ussually something either Jake or myself said that I found funny
by Mike Steele on Jun.05, 2010, under Industry news, podcast
Hilarious intro to the podcast, usually involving an anecdote about Jake and I being heroes.
Interesting way of telling you that we talked about Alan Wake, Dragon Age: Awakening and Red Dead Redemption, that ties into opening joke.
Goofy and self deprecating outro and gracious compliment for listening, placed at the end of the post.
Signature at the bottom saying, “(MS)Mike out.” in it.

Jake and Mike VGS podcast Episode 29: Dog Shoes
by Mike Steele on May.08, 2010, under Industry news, Review, personal thoughts, podcast
Once Upon a time, There were two boys that loved video games veeeeeeery much. In fact, they loved them so much that they spent an hour every other week telling people how much they loved them. One week, the two boys decided they were going to talk about Dead to Rights: Retribution, The deal that Activision made with Bungie, and the evil and wicked Monster Hunter Tri.
After they finished talking about those things, people were so happy that they made them their kings. And they lived happily ever after…. That was until being co-king wasn’t good enough for Jake anymore and he killed Mike in cold blood.
The End

Jake and Mike VGS Podcast Episode 21: Explicit? HAH!
by Mike Steele on Jan.17, 2010, under Industry news, personal thoughts, podcast
I have some bad news everyone…
Did any of you like that episode where we talked about FFCC: The Crystal Bearers, Bayonetta and her sweet ass, Darksiders and the new Army of Two sequel?? Well…We got lazy and this is just that podcast again.
I can already hear all of you now “How dare you repackage that podcast from the future and rehash it when all of those games actually come out.” And that is very valid, so I apologize.
And to the rest of you out there, the ones that think this is far too high a concept idea for what could have been a simple podcast description, I say to you, “Kudos. You are all very correct. But, go fuck yourself.”
Also we play a game and this podcast is longer than normal. That whole “concept as a description” was wearing thin and I’m not about to keep it going the whole way and you can’t make me.
-(MS)Mike out.
EDIT: Thanks to Sean Stryka for bringing this to my attention. It seems that the screen tearing issue is native only to the 360 version of Darksiders so those of you out there that want it on the PS3 have nothing to worry about!

Jake and Mike VGS?!?! Oh yeah, it’s that time you ugly, blotchy skinned losers!

We spend some time talking about the new Pixeljunk game Shooter, The Saboteur, Zelda: Spirit Tracks and the Dante’s Inferno demo.
Do any of those things interest you? OF COURSE THEY DO! So get your listen on and thank us later.
