All praise to HAL Laboratory for bestowing upon us the ultimate time killer. That’s right – Picross 3D has taken hold of the Rumble Pack and isn’t letting go. However, its blocky charms did not consume the guys completely. Kaz stages a zergling rush in the Starcraft II beta, Tony follows the liter in another Left 4 Dead 2 mutation, Tom pitches in a few shillings for the Humble Indie Bundle and Justin wanders around Sword Base aimlessly in the Halo Reach beta. Plus, LittleBigPlanet 2 reactions and the fattest fingers in town.

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. 
If I sound kind of “out of it this week,” I was having some technical issues during the show. You better believe that I have a lot more to say about LittleBigPlanet 2! No more mic problems from my end, I promise.
There are lots of good tenpenki games (the style of game that Picross is) on the iPhone. My favorite is 365 Puzzle Club, which has sudoku, kakuro, and tenpenki. I think it’s two dollars–but it has hundreds of puzzles to play.
