While Steve is away at the beach enjoying infectious mosquito bites around his feet and ankles, Jon and Fraser talk Papers Please, Blood Stone 007 , Uncharted 3 (fuck you!), and Infamous 2 (fuck you too, game!), Bioshock Infinite,Tiny Thief, Star Wars Pinball , and World of Tanks.

We also wax gibbous about the games shown at this year's massive Gamescom convention, and as usual we've got charts and contest winners and listener questions to talk about, too.

Oh, and Fraser has also been winning tons of shit off the Overseas Connection podcast, designing a game in the process. For real.

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

Here's everything that went wrong: Steve introduced the show by incorrectly calling it episode 41, Jon started talking about fleshlights in the middle of his Walking Dead: 400 Days rant, Steve laboriously read aloud all of the games on his Steam list that he also owns on other platforms, and we topped it off by bringing Fraser into the conversation for the last 20 minutes, only to discover at the end that no one was recording his audio. Oh yeah, Steve went off on a thing about D&D board game like Dungeon Commander and Wrath of Ashardalon , and tries to explain Gamma World badly.

So the podcast is late going up because Steve basically spent all day ninja editing-out any sentence that Fraser had involvement in, as it wouldn't make sense you just hearing Steve and Jon. See if you can spot where the editing starts - hint, it's as Steve is talking about the Strider remake.

Besides all of that, we had a great show and you should probably listen to it.

Games covered this week include Dark Souls, Deus Ex, Fez, Machinarium, Surgeon Simulator, Torchlight 2, Walking Dead: 400 Days
