Episode 10: Off the Reservation
We discuss Wii Fit and how it tells fat kids they are fat. Bucky explains again why legislatures need to get over it and make parents do their job. Daniel believes the new breed of gamers want work not fun. GTA breaks entertainment records, Yeah! Is PC hardware classification a good thing?. A good Brit proves that video game violence does not cause real world violence…nanny nanny boo boo! Daniel asks the question on everyone’s mind… Shouldn’t Guitar hero be Band Hero?

[…] put up a new 2nd Player Podcast episode the night we recorded it. Yaaaaay Dan! Anyway, here it is, Episode 10: Off the Reservation. Let me know what you think. Ha, like anyone will see this post, much less […]
Just a few housekeeping items.
1. It is indeed fun to drive drunk, though I would not know.
2. These podcasts are more enjoyable without Michael.
3. To Bucky - Michael is, in fact, worse than Jack Thompson.
4. The Alien vs Predator movies were a great (yes, both of them).
5. Wii Fitness lists me as overweight (6′5″ 217lbs). This is funny if you’ve ever seen me in person.
6. Enjoyable as always guys, keep up the good work.
-t mac from Orlando
1. Agreed. As a matter of fact, TimmyMac, let’s get together sometime soon and head downtown
2. Ooooohhhhh, burn. We’ll be sure to point Michael to the comments
3. Agreed. I would rather Jack Thompson be podcasting with us instead of Michael.
4. Whoever wins, we lose.
5. It is funny, because you’ve been asked, on several occasions, to fill in when stripper poles have broken down.
6. I respectfully disagree.
