Summary: Shiny new year, same old podcast -- but that's a good thing, right? I hope so, because Kat, Hugh and I are up to our old shenanigans, talking a bit longer than usual about the power of Metacritic, Skylanders wave 3, The Star Wars Holiday Special, 007 MIA, achievement hunting, The Walking Dead, PC gaming as the next-gen console you already own, family holiday gaming, resolutions, fatigue, why Kat doesn't like BioShock, why Kat doesn't like Epic Mickey 2, a life lesson from a game of rummy, and the elemental Gary Oldman. Plus, Hugh has a big announcement for fans of his book! Get the podcast on iTunes Get the podcast on your own with RSS Feedburner Or use the links below to listen in the browser or download direct.
