Ep48: Sun's Out Guns Out

Her couch is an animus of the mind.  Indeed, this week the kimono is lifted on the realized future-vision of George Lucas -- namely, the female-centric "adventure game" called Everlove.

Who'd have thunk it? Games for men are all about empowerment and fantasy fulfillment, but games for women are apparently poorly-crafted digital books in which all of your in-game choices are inconsequential and mean nothing. By women for women? Everlove developer Silicon Sisters has a lot to answer for.

Games covered this week include: Everlove, Rush Bros, Brutal Legend, Space Marine, Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon, Battlefield 3, Battlefield 4, Watch Dogs, Knack, Godus, Kentucky Route Zero, Dear Esther, Coming Home, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: OOTS, Borderlands 2, Hotline Miami, Counterstrike: Source, Trucker's Delight, Crossfingers, Dropchord, The Room, Terraria, Dishonored and Dead Rising 2: Case Zero.

We also talk about Nintendo's 2DS announcement and talk about some desirable next-gen launch day potential buys.

LISTEN ON STITCHER

In case you were wondering, the intro is called "Breakthrough" by Ben Landis, and can be found on the Chiptunes = Win album, along with many others that we use for the low background stuff. The outro music is called "Hexapod" by the incredible BLAZAR.

Oh, also we use the track "At The Sign Of The Swinging Cymbal" by the John Anderson Big Band for the NPD Top 10's
