GTA Casino Royale
GTA SA Resident Evil
In this episode we banter about video games, discussing several specific games including 
Walking Dead the game, Mass Effect 3, Diablo 3 and Skyrim and general gaming concepts such as full-release games you can beat in a day, kid-friendly diversions, and games that destroyed our friends lives.
Our hosts this week include Jim, Josh, Nick (Straight from Mongolia!), and Alan. The False Nick mentioned is played by Nick Berget, not of Mongolia.
There are a few audio glitches due to the use of Skype from Mongolia. We’re working on improving that connection for future episodes.
