Another week and another episode of Distributed Failure is here for your listening pleasure! We talk about the usual crap, discussing video games and whatnot. It was another fun podcast to record and I hope you enjoy it just as much as we enjoyed recording it.

 
This week's "What We've Been Playing" features discussion on Need for Speed: Shift, DiRT 2, South Park Let's Go Tower Defense Play!, Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, Lucidity, Pinball Hall of Fame: Williams Collection, and plenty more. We follow that up with some gaming news including the potential of Fumito Ueda creating a first-person game, the faults of the PSP Go and how we think the system could be better, and plenty more.

We end the show with another "Sausage Dump" and discuss such TV shows as Battlestar Galactica and talk about the awesome film, Zombieland! Stephen tells tales from a concert full of midgets, wresting, and getting hit in the head with a 2-liter bottle. We hope you enjoy the show and don't forget to rate/review us on iTunes.

Either way. It's working. At least you're not stooping to that level and saying "NUDEY PICS!" instead.

@gingertastic_10: Well it shouldn't: we're all joking here you know.
It's just a common stereotype we're abusing in a self-aware kind of way... you shouldn't take us seriously or take offense or aynthing.

There's nothing offensive about stating the fact that you can kill (and are encouraged to kill) ginger kids in the South Park XBLA game. Fact

Again, I still find it offensive. The word ginger thrown around to say that red heads should all die and such is just dumb. How do you think a black person would react if you went up to them and called them the N word, yet you expect redheads to just say AHHH YOU ARE ALL JOKING GOOD JOKE GUYS! when you say that all red heads should all just go die.

@CL60: This is derived from the South Park game... blame the game, not the players. We're just continuing the joke. And besides, Kush is a moderator, and therefore he's right. Moderators are always right.

The South Park creators think they're so funny, but the show is in fact boring. I feel the show is more directed at easily offended moms, than us who enjoy humor.
 
Just wanted to share that :P
