For the first time in a
long time, I have no pre-recorded segment this week. This is where I traditionally talk about the games I'm playing, usually in excessive detail (although I try to stay spoiler-free). My gaming time was more limited this week, but Addie comes to the rescue to talk about several games she's been playing. These include Jacob Jones and the Bigfoot Mystery (Vita), Doki Doki Universe (Vita), Kingdom Hearts Final Mix (PS3), and Machinarium (Vita). We also have a new episode of Mini-Gamers featuring twins Heath and Hadleigh, with some back-and-forth about Rabbids Rumble (3DS), Ben 10 Galactic Racing (DS), Ultratron (PS4), Kingdom Hearts 3D (3DS), Kingdom Hearts 352/8 Days (DS), and more.
Before that, it's listener email. Addie and I take turns reading this week's feedback regarding prior weeks' questions (most anticipated games, the voice actors' union, and more). This also includes a few game recommendations, and the inspiration for this week's QOTW. Have you ever been so wrapped up in a game that it somehow spilled over into real life? One listener gives us a great example, and then we discuss our own. Write in and let us know if you've ever -- even for just a moment -- let some aspect of a game you've been playing slip through into real life.
Without a quiz prepared this week, we take the lazy road and play a game of "Who Am I?" It's a little like Twenty Questions with yes/no answers, but without the limit. Addie tries to guess what video game character I am, near the end of this episode.
