Welcome to The Heroes Tavern. Grab a beer, pull up a chair and settle in for some game banter and laughs.

Open eyes and see, your world is open. That's right, it's open world this week. A very controversial genre and the boys do their best to narrow down a definition of the term.

Welcome to The Heroes Tavern. Grab a beer, pull up a chair and settle in for some game banter and laughs.

We've got a bit of a different episode for y'all this week. About a month ago the boys were at the Go Game market and Tim Gadler, formerly of Sega Australia, was there. So they sat down with him for a brand breakdown/interview. A week after that, the boys found themselves at PAX Aus. So they grabbed some interviews with some local indie devs.
