Just finished the latest episode. Rob, I'm sad to say that unless he's been featured in the last season or two, I would be a little impressed if the kids recognized Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer's modern homage, the Hyper-Chicken. (Obligatory but completely justified lamentation that we lost Phil Hartman too soon here.) Also, I could not agree more strongly about the always-online thing. I frequently can't play Diablo 3 at my home even now, because my area has crappy infrastructure. I couldn't get a great internet connection if I tried. And I live in the Salt Lake metropolitan area - not out in the sticks!

the Chaos Rings "games" never sounded like they were anything more than sheer mediocrity that wasn't worth my time or money
They're really quite good. To toot RPGFan's own horn, we have reviews of the three different games from four people, and the worst score came from Bryan's review of Chaos Rings Omega, which he gave an 86. I'll admit that the occasional puzzle bits in the first one are out of place and kind of crappy, but everything else about them is great.

Well its probably a better use of money than anything Squeenix or Capcom have put out on iOS.
No, it's actually not. For the same price, you could afford to buy all three of the Chaos Rings games when they're not on sale and have almost enough left over to buy Final Fantasy Tactics when it's not on sale. Three originals that are pretty great plus a port that's pretty great, all of which add up to a metric crapton of hours of gameplay. Versus one apparently mediocre rhythm game.

I have played a few stinkers writing for the site, but I must say that I've learned about a ton of really great games and soundtracks that I would have missed if I did not come here too. More positives than negatives by a mile.
