Idle Thumbs 50: “Farewell, Video Games” or “The Shitty Wizard”

by Jonathan Downin in GamesNovember 6th, 2009 @ 10:42 am

Idle ThumbsDragon Age starts-off this epic last episode of Idle Thumbs. All 3 of the guys have torn themselves away from Torchlight to get some time in with the game, and they are enjoying it. There are some quirks to it, but the dialog has the guys interested and they taut the PC version as the way to go.

Torchlight has Chris completely hooked in its net of loot and gear enchanting. Herein is a classic wizard story for the history books, and Chris does not come out unscathed. The recent Modern Warfare 2 issues get some time before the regular show portion closes on final emails.

The aftershow segment is where the real fun begins. If you are an Idle Thumbs fan, it doesn’t get any better than this. And good news, Idle Thumbs will continue in some form, possibly with monthly episodes with Steve Gaynor.

Look for the Jeff Goldbloom moment in the aftershow, it will certainly go down as one of the most classic Idle Thumbs moments. And on that note:  Fold Jeff Gate. Geoff Coat Fold. Jeff Coat Mcfold Gate. Jeff Cool Gold. Jeff Jeffgold.

Covered games and topics: Dragon Age: Origins, emails, Torchlight wizards, Shattered Horizons, Modern Warfare 2, dreams, aftershow, qwop

Idle Thumbs goes out with some attempt at a bang, by way of a two and a half hour mega episode. The unrelenting Dragon Age revokes Nick’s gamer card, Chris can’t stop playing Torchlight, and Jake keeps spinning around on the floor. Also featuring farewells aplenty, Dreamcast 2, exclusive Steve Ballmer DLC, and good news.

Runtime – 2:33:54
