Podcast Commando Rearmed

Jeff pops up on Capcom's Bionic Commando podcast. Find out how to listen inside.

Wow, so apparently I recorded a podcast while I was in Las Vegas at CAPTIVATE08, Capcom's press event where I got to see stuff like Street Fighter IV, Bionic Commando, and Dark Void. If memory serves, this was recorded between dinner and a trip to a nightclub with a retractable roof, which is something my roommate Brendan claims to have invented in a dream.

He also claims to have dream-invented "dance boxes," which are mailbox-like boxes that sit on street corners and play music--like a jukebox with no controls. Also, "Electric Gloves," which in his dream was some sort of alcoholic beverage. We then went on to create this drink in real-life, but I'll save those grisly details for some other time.

So enjoy this bonus podcast action, which includes me as a guest, along with Garnett Lee and Shane Bettenhausen from EGM/1up/GameNOW. I haven't listened to it yet, so I'm not sure how heavily edited it is, but my most vivid memory of said podcast involved everyone continually calling Shane a Neo-Nazi. That's how Ben Judd (seen above) rolls, man. What, you thought all he did was translate press conferences and nobly lead the charge for exciting new Bionic Commando-related products?

Did we ever actually talk about Bionic Commando? You know, I'm not sure. Listen for yourself and find out!
