Xbox Live R.I.P.

One of my best friends is Jenna.  Jenna is awesome.  Jenna’s partner is Gabrielle - he is also awesome.  Over the last few years Gabrielle has found much joy and solace playing Battlefront 2 with a great group of people from all over on Xbox Live.  When I heard the other day that Xbox had decided once and for all to end it’s live support for the original Xbox - I immediately thought of Gabrielle.  In many ways this is the end of an era for him, and unfortunately he had no control over its demise.  This video is a tribute to Gabrielle and his fellow gamers.

    Agreed, the puppet show was awesome! Hopefully we can see some more puppetry in future LMG episodes.

    This was so nice! I’ve beeen missing your videos very much, and this one was like a breeze of fresh air.

    By the way, I wonder how it must feel to be given your condolences with puppets… Care to share with us Jenna and Gabrielle’s thoughts on this, Z?

    Yeah, a very great job with that cute litte puppet-twin of yours there. I just wanted to say (for a long time, axtually) you are completely awesome and I’m terribly sorry that there is no way to watch any show you have a part in over here in Europe. Keep up the phantastic work - there has never been a video you have done I didn’t enjoy. In my opinion, every game or phenomenon you featured in your storys and reviews so far has been totally worthy being at least honored for once all around the www - and is far too often terribly underrated (thinking about Psychonauts or Gitaroo Man here, for example). It’s just wonderful that you love this kind of stuff and that you care about it enough to show it to the rest of us, who tend to overlook way to many of the great, phantastic and original things that are out there. And you remind us of them in most charming, funny and creative ways.

    So Z, just never stop, okay? =)
