Reminder to fill out the TDP Community GotY survey!

Sean is travelling back home for the holidays and is playing Absolum and Öoo while Paul finished off Shinobi: Art of Vengeance and jumped into the demos for Super Meat Boy 3D and Pragmata.

For news, a bunch of stuff was announced at the Game Awards so we go over the ones we resonated with, Marathon gets a release date and price and Circana gives some bitter news on the financial reality of hardware sales.
