When Jeff says "Someone gets married and people have to go to a wedding and then everything falls apart" my heart sunk a bit. Don't think it was referential though.

I volunteered to get teargassed in the army out of curiosity and besides being horrible and painful and scary it felt amazing afterwards because my face seemed to have emptied every storage of snot it had to flush out the pain. Like a coffee mugful of pure booger came out my nose in one go. My face felt so fresh when the burning stopped.

Anyways, great show. The tricaster stuff was magical, such a cool device!

I haven't noticed if it is, but if it is I'd like to know what he's doing because I'm thinning on the top ._.

Ooh, Zombies! I bought that game sometime last year just because of the music when Patrick linked it in some article, but it also does have some pretty fun gameplay.

Hearing that Danny was on Beat 102(YOUR MUSIC NOW) gives me a sudden urge to trawl through radio archives in hopes of finding his "real" radio voice.

Chances are it'll just be him saying it the same as in the video because Irish radio stations aren't all soundboards and crank calls, but the truth needs to be revealed!

@joelalfaro: They talk during every game.

Also, maybe Vinny could pick better games. "Vinny's Early Access Corner" is a really hit or miss segment on Unprofessional Fridays.

This week was a good UPF overall, thanks to all the Tricaster shenanigans.

So you don't look at people and judge them in the "real world"?

Just because this is a website doesn't mean its weird.

yes it does

Titanfall does look fun but how can they justify a $60 price tag when it has no real campaign and five multiplayer modes?

There's just something amazing that happens whenever these guys have to improvise an entire show. 2 weeks running we've had the best UPFs in a long long time. As soon as they break the structure, everything is golden material. Never be fully staffed ever again.

I'm just gonna throw out my Buckfast experience from living in Scotland all of my life, in case anyone's interested; Buckfast is the primary drink for bored teenagers to get completely fucked in as little time as possible. It's basically entered into the public consciousness as a staple of Scottish culture, at the same level as Irn Bru and the deep fried mars bar. If you're drinking in Scotland, you will have at one point drank Buckfast.

Buckfast (Bucky) and other fortified wines like MD 20/20 (Mad Dog) are huge staples in teenage drinking in Scotland, where people just want to get as drunk as possible as fast as they can. I'm sure that many teenagers in Scotland have fond (or not-so-fond) memories of kicking about outside a shop trying to get somebody to jump in for a bottle of Bucky and 20 Mayfair.

Same here. Also? I really hope Cigs continues to show up on Unprofessional Fridays.

Wait. Jeff said Giant Bomb is almost to the point of being able to hire new people...

You forgot to mention a small detail:

Because people are practically buying Call of Duty just for that.

Titanfall is so much fun. I'm so close to becoming a second generation pilot.
