On the first regular season podcast we delve into a discussion on the shmup community and the Call of Duty series.  In news we handpick some articles and announcements that we feel the larger news outlets ignore.  Miraculously sandwiched in-between all that we spend a good hour and some change on the current state of achievements/trophies; their importance in the industry, what we like, don’t like, and the direction(s) we think console manufacturers and developers should take them in the future. – 02h27m07s – 89mb
