This week in Movies:

Get Smart, Love Guru, Step Brothers, and Pineapple Express have come and gone, each making their play for the funniest movie of the summer. Now, in the waning days of the season, Ben Stiller's newest directorial effort, Tropic Thunder throws its hat into the ring. Alex, Dan, and Jeff get some.

Dan uses the new trailer for The Express to discuss sports films. The guys debate what works and what doesn't.

This week in Video Games:

In last couple of weeks, Alex, Dan, and Jeff have played a remarkable number of AAA downloadable titles, including Geometry Wars 2 and Pixel Junk Eden. This week 2 more notable entries dominate the video games segment.

First, the bold, time-bending platformer, The Braid has Jeff saying the word 'fascinating' more times than one would think possible.

And second, the retro-remake of the classic NES game, Bionic Commando, Bionic Commando: Rearmed has all of the guys remembering the arm-grappling days of their youth, and debating the merits of a jump button. Plus:

Alex, Dan, and Jeff take a trip out to Dallas to check out ROGCon!

It's funny, during the intro to Braind, the background sequence was showing the part of the game that I'm stuck on!!! Now I know what I was doing wrong:D Great show, and I'll make sure I demo Bionic Commando before I buy it.

Another Rad filled episode.

Tropic Thunder WAS epicly fun, i can't wait to own it on DVD. I was crossing my fingers that when they showed the trailer for that football movie they were gonna suprise me with a Henry Poole is Here review, just because I really want to see that movie, but I live in the middle of nowhere so it isn't playing anywhere remotely close.

Great Episode, I'll check out Braid but i'm up in the air about it.


-- On A Side Note: Hopefully soon we'll get a Burn Notice review, I keep my fingers crossed every week lolz

Awesome show guys, while I think Braid was good, I don't think it was as great as Dan or Jeff. Also Bionic Commando Rearmed is awesome and I think it is far more fun to play then Braid and has far more replay ability.

Great show as always. Intro was hilarious.

As for Braid, I'm gonna agree with... Wombat from CAGCast since I don't agree with TRS guys here. Well, I might, but they never brought up the pricing point. I liked it, but I don't think it's worth $15, but more like $10. I get why it was priced that way, but still. Still think it was a great game, but I wouldn't put it on my top 10 or anything.
