Why Skype was so screwed up during the first hour is beyond me. The game Jason was talking about at the beginning of the show that always had its name cut off, was Battlefield: Bad Company 2. As for the contents of this episode, how does a drunk Sam Fisher and a surprise guest sound? Sounds like a show I'd buy for a dollar. Some of the games discussed this week include Bad Company 2, the Mafia 2 demo, Splinter Cell: Conviction, Valkyria Chronicles, the Valkyria Chronicles 2 demo, and Monday Night Combat.
