Episode 108: Odious Tea

The Five Stars of Destiny align for another lucky installment. As the group talks about their ODST battle scars, Tony and Tom struggle to drink two mysterious cans of “garbage water” tea. The PS3′s Demon Souls goes down a little easier, as Tony promises that it packs plenty of buck for the dollar (or something like that). Nick delivers early thoughts on Bayonetta, an exciting mix of Devil May Cry and sexism, and Lucidity fails to impress despite its “Samurai Jack” style. And if you thought we had put to rest the whole storytelling debate, think again! Do you care about video game military grunts? Should you? Also, impressions of PSN puzzler Critter CrunchUncharted undead and the possibly hairy Dead Space Extraction.

About the Author

This podcast is a celebration of the social aspects of gaming. We were “smash brothers” long before we became the ‘Pack, and we continue to game with each other on a regular basis. If you look beyond all of the media sensationalism and message board wankery, you’ll discover that video games can help form bonds that will last forever. We’re living proof of that – we’re not jaded journalists (not yet, at least), we’re not tournament players and we’re certainly not fanboys. We’re just folks who love to play and discuss games with each other, and we hope to extend this friendship to our listeners with every installment.
