Some Other Podcast, Episode 42: Bear vs. Hobo

Patience, grasshoppers, it will all make sense in the end… or will it?  This week involves a very detailed investigation into our future gambling ventures, and then when we aren’t busy plotting that, also some chatter about Bayonetta, Final Fantasy XIII, and a whole lot of Japanese stuff… also, stay tuned for an extra-special outtakes [...]

Confessions of a Backlogged Gamer, Week 33(ish): Milestones
