This show has been packed with so much gaming news and reviews that it may prove to be lethal.  Joining us for the second week in a row, my good friend Alex Griendling joins us and becomes one of the gang (in spirit).  In addition Zack Luye and Madison Mack, our Comic Con correspondents and podcast producers themselves, join us for El Juego De Palabras!  My apologies for prolonging the end there, my head wasn’t in the game!

*PSA* —CRUNCH TIME WILL AIR LIVE THURSDAYS AT 8 EST, 5 PACIFIC—

AWESOME SHOW.  That sums up this week.  If you insist on a little more info however, we finalize our plans (sort of) to sing something each episode from here on out.  You can get a preview of our vocal talent at the end of the podcast, so stay tuned (or skip ahead if you must).
