A strategy game based on “The Song of Ice and Fire” and also what was the name of the Dragon Age mod you talked about? I heard big breast and lost my train of thought and almost cut my finger off with some tin snips.

I am not a big fantasy fan but I might give “the song of Ice and Fire” a look. Right now I am reading East of Eden for school and Mostly Harmless just because.
I am bad with names on podcasts, but who ever was doing the Forest Gump impression at the end did it great!!

I agree with Space guy. Forrest Gump was hilarious.

Haha the Forest impression was Changwizzle. The man crush Kommie game was for the “The Songs of Ice and Fire” series. Great episode guys, hope to hear about Alien Swarm and some Natural Selection 2 on the next one.

A Song of Ice and Fire… And yes, Kommie is a bigger geek than any of us.
I am a fan of strategy games (and BlackThunder, I actually have heard of Company of Heroes, just didn’t connect the title to the game), and if Ice and Fire, if that is the correct title, is what Kommie says it will be, I might have to pick it up.

I love the Song of Ice and Fire novels.

Right now the fifth book is still being written… OMG MArtin I AM DYING HERE!
For those wondering, its a mix between high. HOW can this be you ask. Well simple… most of the world doesn’t even know of magic, yet its coming out in troves! The political and backstabbing, the dozens of characters… I really like this series and really hope it goes on.

“A song of Fire and Ice”… i think I’ve heard of that before… wait, maybe it was that Twilight book.
no just kidding, i really have seen it, just never read it. I intended to… just never did, yet.

A Song of Fire and Ice. Bruce Campbell rules!! My 30th birthday party is coming up and it is a horror movie themed one. You bet your ass I’m going to be Bruce Campbell!

Really Commie, Ice and Fire?

A Song of Ice and Fire is the series that the game is based on. I looked up wikipedia and it’s supposed to be called ” A Game of Thrones: Genesis”. The books are fantastic by the way. I can’t wait to see the HBO series that they’re doing. Winter is coming!

There’s going to be an HBO series?! I missed this!
Radon WHAT? Its a great freaking series! I love it!
AND ICYNUTS! YEAH!!!! Go as Evil Ash!! Or his ver. of Elvis from Bubba Ho-Tep, or even better! JACK!!!! OOHHHHHHHH THE CHOICES!!
End, if you like good fantasy, with a lot of twists, turns, politics and backstabbing… that series is the one to read! Just that Martin has been dragging his heals (well he wants to get the books done right) on the latest book… :/

A Song of Ice and Fire.
Great podcast you guys!
-=Story Time=-
I recently jumped in a pool with my ipod touch still in my pockets. So I had to listen to the podcast on my old 1st gen Zune. I couldn’t find it on the Zune Marketplace, so I downloaded manually and loaded it up! Couldn’t miss an episode! If losing my Itouch was bad enough, I was finishing this episode and my Zune’s battery died, so I missed the last minute and a half of the podcast.
Was anything said about what game is being offered for answering Kommie’s question right?
