Anthony teaches Jon the fine art of screenwriting. Also: Jett Rocket for WiiWare and the video game vehicles you most want in real life.
RADAR: Jett Rocket
WiiWare
Platformer
Shin’en Multimedia
$10
WiiWare can be a bit perplexing to me. Releases are of such amazingly uneven quality that it almost feels like an abusive relationsip – one day it’s Bit.Trip Runner, the next it’s Copter Crisis. So when I saw the trailer for Jett Rocket, Shin’en Multimedia’s shiny WiiWare platformer, I was guardedly optimistic. Would I be hurt again?

Feedback: Best Video Game Vehicles
Video game heroes never have to drive Tercels or Saturns. They straight fly around in hovering steel war machines and amazing steam-powered contraptions. If you could have any of these vehicles, which would it be?

Questiion about the feedback question for this week. Can it be a accessory for a Video game system like the power glove? Or like a accessory for a video game character? Like Link having a Boomerang?
If it is the first one, The power glove for NES.
I think your going with a accessory for a gaming system. Yeah power glove sucks, i’m picking that.
Wait what the hell, no episode next week? No power glove answer, instead i must pull off the most awesome birthday thingy to you guys in the next two weeks.
Consider it a challenge. I accept, i shall not be defeated by these pitiful mortals…..haha!
Wow, for the first time in I think months I’ve already played all three games this week and I really enjoy them all. There’s something curiously compelling about Looming, and Action Turnip is just wild raucous fun, but the one I keep coming back to is Fishbane. Probably because it’s chewing on my ankles with the razor-sharp jaws of baby-punching (mixed metaphor, heat exhaustion, or both? You decide!).

@Russelloni – Keep your answer in mind. Once we get back after our birthday episode that will probably be our next question. We accidentally put that up instead of our birthday question. We’ll fix that soon. Sorry about that.

Should have just done a normal roof top episode.
Had to laugh when Jon stood over Anthony and chewed him out. Also thought it was funny how disjoint the “skit” and birthday message bits were. I think Anthony being suddenly clean shaven was the first thing I latched on to. That and he wasn’t wearing that ratty white shirt any more. Seriously, how did you find a dish rag your in size?
Have a happy birthday, have a great week off. Dang it, you know what would be a good birthday wish? Get my son to do you a whole episode. That would rock. And I think he could do it. Just gotta find a roof I can work on.
That final moment is probably my favorite Bytejacker scene in a while. So many of the laughtimes were had by me.
I’d really like to see what people come up with for your birthday. Maybe a Bytejacker song!
Is anyone else not able to vote? I just see the “thanks for voting, blah, blah, blah, comment” message, and I want to vote for action turnip SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO BAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Slow weeks for the bytejacker comments. Slowest one I’ve ever seen. Kinda makes me sad.
What? Is everyone outside enjoying the hot weather?

First part cut out where I was just saying it’s been a weird week. Been a weird week for a lot of people, but Bytejacker deserves the love.
So Happy Birthday Bytejacker, keeping it simple, but from the heart.
And I picked Looming.
And here’s the video I mentioned. Bytejacker at 1:03

If I had the time and inclination for it, I think the perfect parody for this double rainbow thing would be to do the monologue to a double scoop or ice cream or, even better, a double chin… just before getting punched out by the person you’re going at.
