Dunno what was in our water this episode, but we get fairly explicit this episode, and it would have killed Sam to bleep them all. Fair warning.
Thanks to Juriel, Ryven Cydrelle, Zatala, and ZombieLich for entering our Indie Game Contest! And congratulations to Ryven and Zatala for winning! We’ll contact you soon with your prizes.
Juriel, of course, officially won our Pinball FX 2 tournament. Congrats to him, and thanks to everyone else for participating!
Jonathan has started playing Skyrim, and it’s a not bad game. It’s almost exactly like the D&D game he wishes he could play at the table. He and Sam have also been playing some EDF, and all hail Purple!
In addition to EDF, Sam’s been taking breaks with Grand Theft Auto 4. Brucie tickles his fancy, and he appreciates the slower pace compared to the insanity of EDF.
Alex has picked up a Lovecraftian-style CCG strategy game for iOS called Cabals. Multiplayer is random-opponent-only, but that’s supposed to change soon. He’s also really enjoying Rayman Origins, which is saying a lot since Alex doesn’t typically like platformers.
In this week’s topic, we pass preliminary judgement on just about every game we know is dropping in 2012, and some we’re not sure about. We try to be quick about it, and there are a few surprises in there.
Finally, Sam wraps up the current round of Name That Game! with a selection of titles that have no theme at all.
CES is in full swing as this episode drops, so we’ll be discussing any headlines that come out of it next episode!
