Checkmate Arcade Podcast

This week a few broken pieces of equipment don't deter us from talking about the Fall of Cybertron demo and some multiplayer fun in Battlefield 3. Jason has more Reckoning to do in some Amalur dlc and starts up Persona 3 Portable to occupy his travel time. Meanwhile, Steven just woke up in the land of The Walking Dead and starts rotating the world with his new FEZ to escape the danger. Plus, we have the news and the missing NPD numbers from the past 3 months.
