Listener Questions, Comments, and Reviews

Justin:

1: Aside from the obvious Mists of Pandaria, what is the release you are most excited for over the next few months? Personally its Halo 4, Borderlands 2 or Planetside 2.

2: What is your favourite shipping couple? As in what two characters would you most like to see together? And yes, ones such as Samus/Lara Croft are reasonable. Doesn't have to be in universe.
