If there’s one regret I have about Feedback, the weekly video programme we put on here at G4tv.com, it’s that we only have time for one big user question per show. That’s just one opinion in the spotlight…one user pulled from a community of millions*. Doesn’t seem fair, does it? When I started doing the “Reply to All” mailbag back in November, part of the motivation was to get more of you guys and gals (you’re out there, right?) to participate with a bit more prominance. And I’m happy to report that after a busier-than-expected December, Reply to All is coming back on a regular schedule.
* statistics not verified
What I need from you is questions, comments, diatribes, pithy remarks, challenges, tasty recipes, viewing suggestions, hilarious stories, PG-13 rated photographs, instructions to find buried treasure, curse words in foreign languages, and Twitter updates you think were direct messages but you mistakenly sent out to everyone. It could be about video games, but it doesn't have to be. Whatever's on your mind.
I will respond -- or I will find someone in our gigantic office complex to respond – in the Friday mailbag. Heck, I might even find some stuff to give away. All that needs to be done is either post something down below in the comments (there’ll be one of these posts every week), leave something in the weekly Feedback question post, or send direct e-mail to webmaster@g4tv.com.
Want a starter topic? Critique my Plan to Survive An Apocalyptic Event (beta) that I posted yesterday. After thinking about it some more, I’m not entirely convinced it’ll work.
Bonus starter topic: I’ve been rewatching Lost in anticipation of the final season. You have to pick one person to take with you on the raft: Michael, Claire (with her bai-bee!), or Ana-Lucia. Who’s going to annoy you the least? (No guns allowed.)

Recipe for an awesome sandwhich.
Butter one side of two pieces of bread.
Add slices of cheddarjack cheese to non-buttered side of one slice.
Top with chocolate chips.
Place second peice of bread, butter out, on top.
Grill in frying-pan or foreman grill on medium low until golden and delicious.
Also, what do you think about Bayonetta being $54.99 instead of $59.99?

I mentioned this on the Feedback episode talking about Green Day Rockband, but I'm pretty sure it got lost in the shuffle, so here it is again:
When the hell are we gonna see Rockband: Led Zeppelin?

What are the odds of seeing Half Life 2 Episode Three in 2010.
I am a big lost fan too. I would pick Claire with her bai-bee!

It's a toss-up between Claire and Ana-Lucia. If I had to listen to Michael whine for even one second, I'd have to throw him off the boat/raft/whatever.

Well, Mr. Pfister,
Since you mentioned recipes, here is how to make the cake from Portal:
Ingredients
1 (18 1/4 ounce) package chocolate cake mix
1 (12 ounce) can coconut pecan frosting
3/4 cup vegetable oil
7 egg whites
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
3/4 cup butter or margarine, melted
2/3 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
2/3 cup cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/3 cup water
2 (12 ounce) cans vanilla frosting
8 maraschino cherries
Directions
1. This recipe is simple, it just takes a lot of ingredients and mixing/sitting around time to complete. Pop in a movie while making the cake to help pass the time.
2. This recipe can easily be made for those who do not consume dairy by making sure the frosting and cake mix you use do not contain dairy. Which is easily done, I being dairy intolerant myself.
3. And lastly, this cake is for fun. It is for the nerd in all of us that just wants to sit down with a bunch of friends, and eat. This cake is perfect for that. Heck, you could all bring food and call it a Lies and Deceit Pot Luck, and LAN your way through the meal!
4. Warning to the wise: this cake is VERY rich. Don't cut it into eight slices, cut it into sixteen. Regular sized slices will just make people sick to their stomachs because of how rich this cake is. So do eat carefully.
5. The night before, mix 2/3c cocoa powder with 1.5 cans of vanilla frosting. Save the remaining half can of vanilla frosting for later.
6. Next day: remove mixed frosting and vanilla frosting from the fridge and set to the side. Also place the cherries and chocolate chips to the side. They will not be used until the cake is completely done.
7. Pre-heat over to 375 degrees F.
8. Lightly butter two 9 inch cake pans.
9. In one bowl combine all remaining dry ingredients.
10. In larger bowl, combine all liquid ingredients and egg whites. Mix thoroughly.
11. Slowly sift dry ingredients into the large bowl of liquid ingredients. Mix thoroughly.
12. Pour half of the batter into one prepared cake pan, and the rest into the second cake pan.
13. Cook for 30+ minutes, until a knife can be removed cleanly from the cake.
14. When done cooking, allow the cake to cool for at least one hour.
15. Remove top quarter inch from one cake round. Basically, let it have a completely flat top so that the second layer can rest smoothly on top. I suggest using a bread knife.
16. Use the coconut frosting as the inner layer.
17. Place second layer on top of first layer.
18. Frost with the cocoa powder mixed frosting. Warning: this stuff is stiff, so it takes a little work.
19. Coat entire cake with chocolate chips, press them lightly into the frosting to get them to stay. The recipe suggests one cup, I would suggest just taking from the bag. Measurements are just suggestions for chocolate chips.
20. Using the remaining vanilla frosting and a tablespoon, dallop eight circles around the top of the cake.
21. Place the eight cherries on top of the eight vanilla frosting circles.
22. Treat your friends to a meal of Lies and Deceit.
I found it on recipezaar.com. It's really good!

Andrew. Huge Lost fan so I'll respond to that. Obviously you can't take Michael. I mean he has totally proven he cannot be trusted and besides he would spend the whole time whining about his kid and yelling WAAALLLLLTTT over and over again. Although he did build the raft. You can't bring Claire. She is a total sweetheart but once that lil baby Arron pops out the raft gets much more noisey, messy and crowded. The only real choice (of those you offered) is Ana Lucia. She is quiet, independent and has proven that she is totally down for a little jungle love! Can you put Juliette on the list though. I think she is super hot and her character totally came into her own in this fifth season.
So Andrew. who are youre 5 favorite Lost Characters in order.
4 me its
1. Sawyer
2. Locke
3. Hurley
4. Sayid
5. Daniel Faraday
Final question foa a true Lost fan. SPOILERS
Do you think the detonation of the bomb will create an alt timeline where John Locke DOES NOT die by hanging in a dingy hotel or is that his fate no matter what?
Did you know?
The author of the hippy life changing book "Be Here Now" is named Raam Daas. But thats the name he changed it to. He was born with the name... Richard Alpert.

I would take Claire. I HATE Ana-Lucia. She is the third worst character on Lost, Nikki and Paulo are the first two. Michael would okay but I would want to know about Walt. Michael knows little about Walt. Also it depends on what season/episode I take them on the raft with me. However with Claire, I just ignore her words and just look at her.

If you could choose between a year long all-you-can-eat free pass to the Korean BBQ taco truck or a lifetime of Xbox Live, what would you pick? Also, which one will make you more fat?

I like your initial survival plan, but I have some problems with your system of government. Nobody is going to go along with that so soon after an apocalyptic event. Mainly, you don't have any basis for your autority to be appointing ministers, controlling resources and maintaining order. People don't want to follow governments that have history and armies to back them up, even if they know it's for their own good. Everybody will be too nervous and freaked out to want to cooperate on such a large scale. Just survive, then let your kids rebuild.

Pushed back to March 16. There's going to be that DLC plus an additional campaign where you rebuild the Grey Wardens, raises the level cap and has new weapons, such as an intelligent subspecies of Darkspawn. It's called Dragon Age: Origins - Awakening and it will be available on 360, PS3 and PC for $40 - digital and physical.*
* Not pulling this from my ass.....I read it on Gamespot earlier this morning. Plus, I've only seen the expansion disc on Gamestop, but I'll keep checking on Amazon.

My girlfriend thinks my friends and I are weird for having plans of what to do if a zombie attack occurs. Better safe than sorry.

Also, I need a new profile picture. That one is so October 2009.

I think I post my plan for escaping the zombie Apocalypse. I live in Florida so after I first discover that a zombie outbreak is underway I will gather my close friends and family and depending on where/how bad the outbreak is loot or buy weapons. Then we will head to the north west, because there is not alot of people out in those states so it'll be easyer to find a lone piece of land and hunker down. You see to get away from the zombie horde you have to go where there is not any zombie food aka people. Less people = less zombies.
Now if I am caught in a heavy outbreak area and leaving my area just is not possible I have a few places picked out due to the locations' available resources, how secure the building/area can be, and the possible escape routes the area provides.

That Clash of the Titans movie trailer looked sick... what's up with the game? Another lousy movie tie-in or what?
bolo73
One other question. What happened to Return to Ostagar for DA?

I like it but you might want to break it down by type of event. Like a plague, zombies, natural disaster, zombies, WW3, zombies.
