Episode notes
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. Thank you to Plants vs Zombies for sponsoring today's show! We're partnering with them to give away codes for Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted. Stay tuned to Giant Bomb this week for more info on how to win! Today's show is also brought to you by Beta Hat!…
