Maybe it would be a cool idea to have a Secret Santa of sorts? Maybe just cards, and have one person in charge of choosing who's buying for who?

Heh, well I figured 'niche' sounded better than a 'crazy cult', which others have called Thumbs Also, after watching both Sean's interviews, I put my money down on PNatI and pre-ordered yesterday. Ps: I hope to god there are very, very subtle Thumbs references.

Hmm yeah, but I think it is possible that he had these questions all ready to go, then met the guys and was like 'oh shit now it's real'. That being said, he didn't seem to be particularly knowledgable about Jake/Sean (to be fair, they're only /really/ well known by a niche selection of the online world) and so it's doubtful he had that awe-inspired anxiety I mentioned.

As someone who has had to interview people I really admire and/or think are awesome, I can understand his uneasiness and apparent nervousness throughout the interview. I don't like the interviewer - I don't think he did a good job - but I feel like I ought to sympathise with him, because I've no doubt I am that douche when I interview people. Brief side note: I interviewed Spaff and Alex Evans from MM earlier this year, and it was my favourite thing ever, because of how laid back and cool it was. I think show floors are a really difficult place to conduct interviews because it's harder for both the interviewer and the interviewee to act appropriately and express themselves eloquently. Still, it was nice to see Jake and Sean on a thing. I'd love to see 'An Audience With' type feature, where someone sits down with them, loosely talking about their game, but going off on cool tangents when they want. That would be pretty cool.

Dude, that was a bad link. here it is 2_R6qDMv21g Also, that was a really dumb interview(er). Jake and Sean were pretty strong though; it just makes me sad that I wasn't there

I reckon the video will be uploaded on the Dawn of a new era of idle thumbs.

Rockstar are well-known for choosing main characters that go against the norm for their GTA titles. CJ, Nico, Luis to name just three. I was listening to an episode of Thumbs the other day, and it occured to me 'What would it be like if GTA V's lead character was female?' Just curious as to what you guys think.

So what you're saying is; Valve + Vanaman / 2 = Jake?

You have a copy of The Last Express? Son of a... I say finish the games you've already started first.

I broke my screen

There's problems with it atm buddy. Nobody is getting the codes anymore, and the latest batch of people who have bought it aren't even having it register on their Account page.

Didn't you see the guest boss Phaedrus?

REMEMBER THE AIRFIELD, FISHER? I did enjoy that game, but I have no idea how they expect you to be stealthy, especially near the end. For me, it just turns into a straight-up shootout.

In the bin like sin the din. Yes, I don't understand myself sometimes either. I'm in though

Do eet. I feel like I don't have nearly enough stress in my life ATM. These chest pains are nothing; I want my eyes to bleed!

On that note, The Witcher 2 looks amazing.

at any rate, you live.

I posted an article about that on my website, and a fantastic reader sent me his entry to read! I've been so busy over the past while that I haven't had a chance to properly sit down with it, but it starts off really, really well. Love seeing that sorta thing.

Exactly right. You might be looking to assassinate someone who looks like an artist, but there are tens of these guys walking around the city. You need to rely on your compass and the way the crowd is acting in order to know who's your target.

The multiplayer is pretty cool; I played it at Eurogamer. I also won the game -- 2,500 points compared to the guy who came second with 1,000 -- so I may be biased.

http://expo.eurogamer.net/index.php Anybody going down on any particular days? I've got passes for all three days (likely going down for all three), so any other Thumbs going?

This has been my favourite thing ever. I love video games. Also, massive thanks to Spaff for being such a great guy to me today. So much fun; seriously... Thank you.

Also, please fix it turning off Idle Thumbs/iTunes every time I open the game

I think the guy you control needs to be moved up a little bit, I keep losing him/her under my thumb. Also when I move to the left/right edge, I try to tap the guy and it jogs him to the side, meaning I miss the ball.
