Here are all of the questions we answer this week:

*What is your favorite set piece from an Uncharted game?

*Do you play betas as betas and give feedback, or are betas just an early demo to you?

*Pick one: Any unreleased anticipated game of your choice before anyone else gets to play it, or a night with any woman of your choice. Also, what game or what woman?

*With the price cuts of both platforms happening so quickly, do you think that this generation of consoles will be shorter than the previous one?

*With the huge success of the PS4, do you think it can sell more than the PS2?

*Do you think that game patch sizes are getting out of control?

*What would happen if Brett and Michael A got into a "rant-off"?

*How do you feel about the newly announced Bloodborne GOTY Edition?

*Do you think gamers would rather pay $80 - $100 for a COMPLETE game upfront or keep getting incomplete games at $60 with $40+ of DLC and other shit?

*If you were stuck on a island with no Internet and a 900p TV and one console, which console would that be?

*What is the best new IP this gen and why?

*What do you think Mercury Steam's new game could be?

We’ve had Gerard Williams a.k.a. HipHopGamer on our show several times already and it’s always been a blast. For tonight’s appearance, we wanted to give him the interview treatment like we’ve done with our special guests lately. We get to know Gerard, from his beginnings as a young gamer, to being the self described Number 1 Journalist in the industry. If you’ve ever wanted to really understand what our friend Gerard is all about, then this episode is for you.

Gerard sticks around to talk to us about some of the latest happenings in the industry, including: Phil Spencer admitting that the Xbox One may never catch up to the PlayStation 4, VG24/7 mistaking Uncharted 2 for Uncharted 4 during their hands-on preview, and Nintendo re-releasing The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.

This episode of Throwdown is the first to feature only two panelists: Tony Polanco and Emilio Lopez. That doesn't mean that things don't get crazy however as they discuss the recent insanity with Konami and their protection racket-like FOB protection plan, Destiny ads being put on people's PlayStation 4, dashboards, Frank Miller's... questionable drawing of Superman, and Lex Luthor not actually being in Batman v Superman.

The guys also talk about some of their pre-NYCC experiences such as what Emilio saw at the Jacob Javits Center the day before the convention began, and Tony telling us about the games he got to check out at the Square-Enix and EA events held in Manhattan.
