Episode 36 - Negative Nancies vs. Positive Percies

You might know Ben and Andy as being fairly upbeat and jovial, but they take a slight detour into negative territory in this episode. Yep, it's time to talk about our pet peeves, things that annoy us, get under our skin and outright piss us off. Gaming and life in general, it's all fair game. We get a bit political and a little dark, but we naturally bring it around and give you the gaming geekery and cheeky humour you'd come to expect. Games we've been playing and some good TV show and movie trailer recommendations round out the festivities. Ben's the Negative Nancy, Andy is the Positive Percy, both are awesome as always.

Here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q801it_qOk0

As always, the iTunes and MP3 download links are in the video description.

Question of the Week:

What are some of your major pet peeves, gaming or otherwise? Share your rage with us! Sub-question: Kate Winslet - Yay or nay?

A certain political party we have here in Australia called The Greens.

More like THE REDS.

Pet Peeves in gaming are Escort Missions, very annoying and tedious

Timed Missions very annoying due to the fact you have to rush to complete them, and lot of times a few slip ups screw you over, and it slows the game down just like the Escort Missions

Annoying kids online, namely the ones who talk trash and act like tough guys but wouldn't say that to your face

Yay back to the three hour club. Andy I am disappointed in you for never watching Christmas Vacation, I would have figured that would of been one of the Christmas movies that you would watch. I don't know what it is but I also love watching cyst videos on youtube.

Question of the week: Some of my major pet peeves in real life are slow walkers and people that just stop walking right in front of you for no reason, I just want you yell "Fuck off" and shove them to the ground. Another is when people wear clothes out in public that are disgusting and like 5 sizes too small, do these people even look at them self's when they leave the house.

In gaming my pet peeves are escort missions, I don' even know why they are still putting these into games they are boring as hell and alot of times hard as hell. Another is non skip able cut scenes, its fine if you cant cut it the first time watching it but when I die and have to watch the same 3 minute scene 20 times I want to go punch a wall. The last major one is bad controls in a game, I wonder if the developers even play these games before they come out because if they did they would realize that their good game is shit when the controls are bad. Deadly Premonition I think is a perfect example of this because I like where the game was going but the horrible controls just made me want to stop playing every other minute, hope they fix this with the re-release.

I'm sorry but y'all made me really pissed off when you talking about gun control. Could you guys say away from topics like this in the future.

As for Kate Winslet I would have to say yay.

My pet peeves?
People who think modern Sonic games are garbage, yet praise the modern Mario games. Sonic Colors is a significantly better game than Mario Galaxy 2.
I am beginning to think you and I won't get along in gaming tastes! :p First, you think Sonic 3 & Knuckles is mediocre, now you think Sonic Colours is better than SMG 2! Colors is a good game but Galaxy is much better but to each their own I guess.

Long time listener but first time actually posting on the forum!

My modern pet peeves is the gradual degradation of RPGs and some people just accepting this, Mass Effect 3 and Mass Effect 2 are prime examples of this. Mass Effect 1 in my opinion was an outstanding Sci-Fi RPG that actually felt like an RPG! The later Mass Effect games were stripped down to be more of a poor mans Gears of War the only thing that kept me playing ME2 was the fact that it was genuinely interesting but ME3 was just terrible regardless of the ending.

Skyrim is also a victim of this with its streamlining and I fear for that franchisees future. Though this degradation isn't exclusive to RPGs but I think its were its most prominent.

Also I cant stand DLC that is announced before the game is actually out OR DLC that is out the same day as the game!

Off topic but I remember Andy really liked Sleeping Dogs. I just beat it and absolutely loved the game, and just finished the Halloween DLC for it too. I was wondering though, do you ever find out what "Not Ping's" real name is?

I received a voicemail from her later in the game, but the second it got sent Rickey called me so it never let me listen to it lol.

I wish I lived in a country that had guns. I have a few old coke cans around the house that I need to get rid of - I would use a bb gun but in the wonderful land of Australia run by nanny Gillard, you need a freakin licence to get one.

Fuckin redonkulous.

BB guns are basically toys and they used to be sold as such here in the states.

Yup. Count yourself lucky that you can still own a firearm for the purpose of self defence. Over here, they can only be obtained for recreational purposes. You can be arrested in some areas for defending yourself with a firearm. It's sad, someday I hope to get into politics and restore some of the rights to our people.

They are toys. I doubt there is a single legitimate reason to own a BB gun other than for purely recreational purposes. Even Merry Ol' England allows you to have one - and they are shit-crazy authoritarians (apologies Andy)
