First-time host from Gonzo Planet, Mr Paul Gibson heads up the discussion this month, joined by Matt Ramsey of Do Try This at Home and Andi Duncan ofGameBurst.

Topics include: Are we too hard on brand new machines straight out of the gate? Whether the preponderance of HD remakes is positive in the long run for us as players and why people are so highly strung over spoilers.

The show was edited by Alex who tried ever so hard not to insert himself into proceedings.

Talk about the show on Twitter with the many hosts using the hashtag #PraxisEffect. Contact us via email at [email protected] and come to the Gonzo Planet forums where there is a Praxis Effect section. We want to hear you guys use these discussions as jumping off points for debate.
