Bitmob's Aaron Thomas returns! And in grand fashion, he brings with him manly steroids and more-manly construction sounds. Newly minted staff writer Omri Petitte and editors Demian Linn and Brett Bates join his happy resurrection. The group discusses embarrassing game stories, memorable marketing campaigns, sympathetic villains, game franchises that might benefit from a free-to-play format, and how to play current-generation, open-world titles correctly. Make sure to stay for construction-related bloopers after the outro!

The embarrassing moments segment was pretty funny.  When Killer Instinct came out I went to an arcade and was beat by guy who was playing with his eyes closed.  :(

Holy crap one of you guys actually played the MSX Metal Gear games. The second one especially is one of the most underrated games around.

I kind of assumed he played MG2 on Subsistence like most people. I dunno if I'd consider it underrated, but definitely underplayed.
