Good show I was entertained.
Just to clarify the Lego thing. What you guys were referring too, the new Forerunner set, is Mega Bloks. In fact Mega is the only officially liesenced company to make Halo related block sets. Lego is not. There are independant compnies that make Haloesque weapons and Helmets that fit on Lego charactors. (You can see a few of these in “Battle of the Brick”) But even these walk a fine line with liesencing laws and potential lawsuits. (Sounds stupid its only toys, but Mega earned that liesence.)
There are even websites that give you templates to you can on your computer design and print stickrs to put on the body of the Lego charactors to look like anything you want, not only a Saprtan as example, but say a German WW2 uniform.
So you cant actually go out and buy a LEGO Halo set, you CAN piece together different things multiple companies make to get Halo looking Lego creations, but if you want to buy a Warthog with Spartans in one box, its Mega Bloks and its FAR superior in details and accuracy.
FYI, Lego and Mega have been in courts for years on copywrite lawsuits.. Mega alwayws wins, but theres no question Lego is the king of the hill in the bloks universe. But that being said, Mega is a huge growing company dealing with millions of dollars in sales, being second in a billion dollar niche industry is not a bad thing, and Halo is there most dominant set when you go into the apprpriate aisle of say Toys R Us.
All this talk about Grifball in Halo 4 has me feeling nostalgic. I used to play it Halo 3 a lot, and was pretty good as a ball carrier. I have started playing Grifball in Halo: Reach, and it kinda sucks compared to Halo 3 (the Hammer Jumping and Flowers are weak). I still enjoyed it and want to get a team together like the good ol’ days. The ball passing and shit 343 has added looks like it will make Grifball, and Oddball feel very new and fresh. Just another reason I can’t wait for Halo 4.
Also, the Covenant would rape the shit out of the Independence Day Aliens: modern day humans beat the Independence Day Aliens. 2500AD humans never really beat the the Covenant. The Covenant just beat themselves(heheh… That sounds dirty).
Sorry Evander, but that Big Jimmy just sprayed his hot facts all over your face.
**like**
Ho-Lee-Shite…
So there I was; just clocked out from my job as an order-filler for a Wal-mart distribution center…
It had been a long, hot, grueling, 13 hour day…
But it was my week-end, and I was begining my long drive home. To comfort me I had a cup of coffee, a carton of cigarettes (that I buy in Oregon because they’re expensive as fuck in Washington) and my MP3 player full of podcasts…
I was stoped at a red light, when I realized I had already heard this part of the podcast (Evander being wrong about the Independence Day Aliens vs The Covenant)…
So I looked at my MP3 player, and started to fast forward…
*HONK* went the asshole driver behind me. I looked up and saw that my light had turned green…
So I went…
The Semi-truck I had been next to at the red light was about one hundred feet in front of me…
A drunk or stupid driver in an SUV heading towards the Semi began to list lazily to the left… his left… right into the path of the on-coming Semi…
Both vehicles swerve. The SUV Shoop da whoops and does a barrel roll. Actualy he did about 5.
The Semi swerves into 6 cars…
My car was safely behind the whole thing thanks to me being to busy listening to the show.
My life was saved by PGCR. Hell yah.
Oh my gosh!!! That is flipping crazy! Can we put that in our upcoming commercials? PGCR saves lives? Glad your ok!
I’m glad I’m ok too. I’ve never killed anyone, and I dont want to die with a bad K/D…
By the way, Semi-trucks are scary. It didn’t even slow down as it went through cars.
It was like Semi was The Covenant, and the SUV was the Independence Day Aliens.
