Today’s episode was kinda messy, Colby and I couldn’t hear each other for most of the recording, which makes it really hard to have a conversation. We posted what we had, but parts of it are definitely a little disjointed. We’ll answer all the questions from this episode on Episode 249, which will probably come out on September 8th or 15th, depending on how Cliff’s migration to Florida goes.

*monotone screaming*: If you played video games as a kid, what direction did you think the video game industry would go from where it was back then? Did you think games would progress as fast as they did?
JoeColeslaw: How stoked are you for Psychonauts 2…Short point… you MAY want to play 1 first, but NOT required… just freshen up on controls. They do a good job to recap
