    Thanks a lot Anthony.

    I would rather crap my pants, playing single player games, with motion control.

    I would play motion controls for the same reasons as you guys, I would play single player games because I get burnt-out/frustrated with multiplayer sometimes but never with single player, and I would NOT crap my pants because I am the type of man who would get a severe case of the dingleberries and would have to spend far too much time dealing with them to enjoy the great games.

    I found your origin stories really inspirational. I'd like to be a writer someday (not video game reviews though) and I thought your stories & advice were really great. I need to follow your advice to just start putting my stuff out there myself. Daniel, was your interview your first time going to Berkeley and was there a bong or other marijuana consumption device in plain view at the GR compound?

    There were bottles of alcohol and beer steins though now that I think of it.

    I agree with Nick. I would rather play a game with single player and with a well developed story. However, I would miss multiplayer so much. This question reminds me of a Venn diagram where you have three options and can only make two. I would rather play motion control games agreeing with the reasons mentioned. Like Anthony mentioned, If I'm focusing hard on a game, I try to my best not to get up. Even when it's a multiplayer match online. This one time, I was playing Guitar Hero: III and had WAY TOO MUCH Mountain Dew. I was tired and managed to fall asleep while playing a song. I woke up, looked down to see I pissed myself, then looked the TV screen and saw FAILED. So anyways, I would rather urinate and have bowel movements in my pants, as long as it's a great game.

    Sounds like you did the dew, but then the dew did you. It could be worse, you could have recorded pissing yourself on a Kinect game.

    I don't think that would be possible. Then again I never thought I fall asleep on Guitar Hero.

    Motion controls for the same reasons. There are actually good motion controlled games and it can only get better... right? Definitely single player games. I play them the vast majority already. And I definitely wouldn't want to crap my pants.

    Great podcast, I would rather play great games, motion controls and single player. And I would rather catch farts in order to play.
