We relax and let it hall hang out this week, or Faith does for that matter. We talk Dragon Age 2, New Vegas DLC, Swarm, Okamiden, and braless cosplayers so prepare yourselves. In a rather nice change of pace, there is a ton of industry news to cover including some fairly high-profile game announcements (Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City anyone?), Kojima's new position as VP, game cancellations, and Platinum Games plan to revive Japanese game development. Our community segment leads to some pretty outrageous discussions and we take a few minutes to answer viewer questions from the forums. Sit back, relax, and prepare to have your brain invaded as we smuggle video game enlightenment into your cranium!
