-Quick note: Jason played only about 2 hours of Battlefield 3.

And we have returned again, to give you all the video game goodness we can stuff into a two hour time frame. We both played too many games to list here, so you'll have to listen in to discover all the fun we had over the unplanned brake. Plus, we let you know all the games Coming Soon for the rest of October. The audio gets a little bit out of sync after about 30 minutes, but I found out too late to properly fix it.

Despite what I say at the start of the show, most of the episode was recorded on August 27th 2011. We talk a little bit about Call of Duty Elite and rundown some of the bigger news from the past few weeks. Jason goes super old school with a run through of the original Final Fantasy, the Power Stone Collection for the PSP, and then he scores some touchdowns in EA Football games. Meanwhile, Steven goes back to the past in Singularity, gets the old band back together in Strong Bad's Cool Game: Episode 2/3, and takes a look at the bleak future of Bodycount.
