Ok so in this continuity Bill is still a Ninja fighter (Anti-Ninja?) and Paul seems to retain his mad scientist digs (For a moment I thought it was a Dr Horrible costume).

The frantic buildup to slothlike behaviour is my favourite part of this video, with the possible exception of James' reconstruction.

Very true to life with Matt's iPhone. They are falling swiftly it seems.

@Darkobra, I believe it to be a Metal Gear Solid sound effect.

Youtube had a 10:58 time limit.

Good job. Better than the first one.
Low quality Youtube sketches? Amazing!

Point of nitpickery: When the xbox red-ringed at the beginning, you could see that it was the tenth mark, however during the recap there were only 9 stories (including the most recent one). Something missing?

If you're using Firefox, you're probably having the same problem as me. (Adobe Flash version 9 not working with Firefox 3) You can try watching the video on Quicktime or, at the very worst, use IE. It makes me cry into a basket of kittens.

I'm watching the videos using Quicktime on Safari on OSX. Still, I managed to get one of my friends to download the episode for me and put it on my shell account.

I'd post a link, but I don't know whether that's OK with the LRR crew.

The first was dead out of the box. It's not a list of RRODs, just dead XBoxes.

Ok that was fricking awesome...

Sadly I'm not getting the apple joke/referance, nor the jumping thing -.-
One thing though; (The answer to this one was given whiel I was writing this) Matt marks off 10 broken Xboxes at the start, but only nine are mentioned (10 foot droop was damn good though), guess it was either forgotten or didn't fit in or something. Me suggestion would ahve been fire though.

And now when they've stolen all of Morgan's clothes, does that mean he's gonna have to go naked or just do teh laundry on what he's wearing a lot more often.
But then, would he even need clothes now that he has a whole new Dota map?

The Bobblehead looks like Christoffer Lee's character in Starwars.

For the confused people to get the joke, I'll give you a hint.

What company makes the iPhone?

Nice love it. I just got the Joke with Graham and the apple by the very end when he did it again with Matt. And I think because of that time disparity for me it reached maximum humor levels.

I was expecting a moment when Morgan realized that all his stuff was gone once he and Bill were beaten by Jer, but then again I guess that's more appropriate for him to realize that a few days later, if at all.

Nice follow up with Jer by the way, now waiting for the missing person message to show up on milk cartons. Also I love how so far Jer's been writing a paper in each hustle, albeit only two episodes and it's the same paper but I do seem to hear a lot about Jer writing papers in the podcasts, and about how he never seems to stay completely focused and degenerates into video games, ala the newest episode of Hustle.

Nice to get a bigger DotA reference.

So far it seems that your Hustle titles don't relate that much to the full themes of the episodes. This isn't a criticism, it's just that it's kind of like an inside side sort of half side inside joke.... side.

Love how the dock tilts when the people teleport onto it, Particularly how it immediately tips to Bill when he appears. Also kind of cool to see part of the video making process even if it is caricatured within a storyline continuity. Though I suppose caricature is probably the wrong word. Caricature refers more to the way you portrayed your video making in "The Process."
My train of thought is more like a roller coaster that has loop de loops and no safety bars.

Revver fail at updating their player for Flash 10.

On an unrelated note: here's the Metal Gear Solid codec sound, pre-formatted for the iphone. For other phones, change the extension from .m4r to .m4a, and convert to .mp3 if necessary.

Yeah, when he finally notices he'll just ask "Where are my clothes?" in that looking-for-Jer tone from the previous episode.

This video was missing one thing for me: the reactions of Bill and Morgan, on two counts for Morgan (DotA and Room rob). Any particular reason?

Other than that, wow. You guys really have it down with this Hustle thing. IMHO

Loved the recreation and apple. Mmm, Granny Smith.

I didn't get the Apple joke until the end.

Any chance of getting it uploaded to youtube? Split it into two parts, I really don't mind. And it had to be a Commodore Hustle for revver to die on. :cry:
Is it safe?

yeah yeah yeah. I mean it doesn't seem to be in the shot when Paul is asking about the NES, but it is there all the other times...

I know I'm nitpicking here, I'm just trying to find an error you guys didn't notice.
