Before we left Los Angeles and Summer Game Fest concludes, we dragged ourselves into our little studio and recorded a quick little podcast for your Tuesday enjoyment!

We've still got plenty of things to chat about before Summer Game Fest officially starts! We continue our thoughts on 007 First Light, Grubb continues to have fun with Pictonico, Dan circles back to Mina the Hollower, we load up on more Crashout Crew, and Will joins us to chat about navigating space with Bakalar in the new Star Fox!

We're a week away from Summer Game Fest and we've got video games to talk about! We talk about Bubsy 4D, some thoughts on Mina the Hollower, some back to back James Bond action with Mike playing through GoldenEye, and we talk about how much we enjoy 007: First Light! We also get into the news, guess some ads, and have a lovely time podding.
