Episode 49: We define the word apotheosis to tell you about a real gamer moment, a true series of events that couldn't have written better by any accomplished author, something so mindbogglingly stupid we had to dedicate our entire Patch Notes segment to it; of course, it's the botched invasion of Caracas and attempted coup by an American private security company on the country of Venezuela. We loved to see it, loved to read about it, agree that coups should be diverse, and know in our hearts that the men who tried to do the coup grew up playing way too much Call of Duty. We also channel our inner art critics to discuss games announced at last week's xbox event, ruminate on historical settings unexplored by the Assassin's Creed franchise, talk some 4x grand strategy, and keep bashing The Dumb Guys.
