This weekend was rough and, as a result, this gaming podcast has an epic number of bloopers. A death in the family had us running all over the place and heading to family events. However, we pushed through and put out an episode which includes some history on Altered Beast and a look back at Eugene Jarvis.

This weeks news includes:

  5. Qn of week:

    PS: thanks for the review of plants vs Zombies 2 podcasts back. I was undecided before hearing the podcast, but I am very glad you convinced me to buy it.
