@nekuctr: Brad did do content from home once, it was about Star Craft II.

Even if I didn't know about the collar bone accident, I would've guessed something was up with the way Patrick was leaning. I haven't broke my collarbone, but I have been in pain enough where it was way easier to just lean an awkward way.

Also, thanks for the content Patrick!

Patrick's injury is clearly karma for consistently writing quality, thought-provoking editorial content and breaking news!!

Good to see Patrick is doing well. I suspect he is heavily medicated, so all the better!

He's flaunting his pill stash, just over his right shoulder.

Kevin Spacey is playing Killzone on TV not Call of Duty. At least not in the pilot.

Hey, you know . . . it wouldn't be a bad idea if @patrickklepek did these once in awhile. We only ever hear from Patrick in the context of everyone else on podcasts and events. I like hearing from each of these guys, on their own, individually. It reinforces the whole "GB is about the byline/personalities" thing. This is one of the neatest things Patrick has gotten around to doing and I appreciate it every bit as much as Jeff's Jar Time stuff.

Will be keeping him in my mind this week. Surgery scares me. I'm a huge pussy. I don't envy his situation, but hope it all goes well.

Yes, always enjoy seeing the guys doing something like this at home. Like when Vinny did one of those after Max was born, sharing his thoughts on Fez and what it's like to never sleep.

Guys, this is the part where I mention that House of Cards is based off an excellent British miniseries (in turn based off a book). Sorry.

Also, I think Patrick is a pretty good question answering guy. He should do this more often?

I think I "appreciate" this more than Jar Time, but that could be because Jeff's mic is horrible and ear piercing. CLIPPING AT ALL TIMES. Anyways, I liked this vid. Wouldn't mind seeing more like it.

The satisfaction you got from the fighting in Dragon's Dogma is multiplied by like 10 when you fight normal enemies and bosses in Dark Souls.

As for a new tactical RPG I'm also going to end up getting Tactics Ogre for the PSP since I hear its pretty close to Final Fantasy Tactics.

If you play more Fire Emblem, @patrickklepek, I'd recommend going with Path of Radiance on the GameCube. It has the best balance of story, character, and overall gameplay than any of the others that have been released in North America up to this point.

Glad to hear you have an interest in Valkyria Chronicles. It's not perfect, but it's one of my favorite PS3 games out there. A great piece of historical fiction at that. Maybe would make for a good contender for Unprofessional Fridays sometime down the road.

I've only played the Gamecube and Wii Fire Emblems (Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn), but I really loved both of them. They make for a fantastic combined narrative arc; I would say they're definitely worth going back to. Looking forward to FE Awakening once I actually get a 3DS.

Looking good, Patrick. Good luck with the surgery and a speedy recovery!

These are cool, they're a really nice premium feature. Jeff's Jar Time is always good fun, and it's great to see someone else do it. It's a different feel from the podcast because you get the chance to monologue on stuff.

@patrickklepek stoked to hear you're looking to play Dark Souls. I'm a strong believer that it's totally ok to use a guide with this particular game. It's still a hell of a challenge, and a fantastic game. Maybe a video series of you getting pissed off at DS?

I love this video. I especially agree with your point, @patrickklepek, that it's good to play games- and do things, in general- that make you a little bit uncomfortable.

You should definitely play Valkyria Chronicles, Patrick!

Easily the best JRPG of this entire generation.
