1:18:24

We've gotten through our last truly dreadful film this week with Dead Trigger, a paint-by-numbers zombie flick with every trope in the book.

As we roll into December and the dust begins to settle from another Black Friday, which we guess really wasn't so bad this year thanks to everyone's favorite deadly virus, the news cycle continues to slow while we move from Thanksgiving into Christmas.

The day has finally arrived in which we tackle the final chapter of the incredibly lackluster saga of Resident Evil, and such a monumentally boring undertaking has required us to call in the ultimate schlock hype girl, the one and only Tara Conneally (@tallcanary), as our very first guest host.

1:50:01

Long stretches of game development involving mandatory overtime, known as crunch, are unfortunately very common in the video games industry. It's a difficult topic to discuss as in some ways it almost seems like a necessary evil while the argument for its avoidance can be made just as strongly. Is it always a result of poor planning by project lead…

2:03:07

Your friendly galactic Lombax gets his big screen debut in Ratchet & Clank and we promise you he's far more interesting in his games.

Sony began sending emails this week to PlayStation players deemed to have been worthy of the chance to pre-order a PlayStation 5 direct from the source, presumably in an effort to curb scalping and get more units into the hands of people that actually want them.
