No Listener Feedback, but a new Question of the Week: “When did you first start listening to this podcast?”
It was April of 2008 when we saw Assassin’s Creed show up on the PC, however in early February the game appeared on Internet pirate sites causing an estimated 700,000 downloads of the pirated copy of the game. The disc-copy manufacturer has assumed responsibility of the issue after finding an employee in possession of one of their copies of Assassin’s Creed at their home.
I started listening to your podcasts in June of this year. I think you are doing a great job. I want to also thank you guys for the items I received for winning the contest back in July. They are awesome. I especially love the Sims t-shirt. Keep up the good work!!!
I hope you guys saw the South Park episode “Freeium isn’t Free”, pretty much why I stopped playing all Facebook and Mobile IOS app games.
As for the QofW, I started when Dan joined your Podcast and have enjoyed it thus far. Welcome to Devin and I look forward to more episodes from you three.
