Upcoming guest co-host Dave Ader just put the final touches on his The Last of Us Review. Join us in our next podcast where Phil and Dave will discuss what makes this game such an enjoyable, and ground-breaking experience.
Game Under Episode 11
It's a short show this week, Tom continues to barrel through the Uncharted series (this week he beat Uncharted 2). I have my latest notes on Last of Us and we address the big news of the week, including NPD, Xbox ONE-80 and Aussie pricing of the next gen consoles. My favorite part? Tom's yak opinions.
The podcast does contain spoilers for both Uncharted and Uncharted 2, which are noted in the show notes.
Above: Tom and Phil (left) re-enact the final scene from Uncharted 2.

Game Under Episode 9
Phil plays a mystery game, one that you won't believe he is actually playing and playing well. Tom gives hands-on impressions of this week's big release from France, Remember Me, (and some how we do not use bad french accents or besmirch the people of France in the process).

Metro: Last Light Review
After selling out with his last review, Tom Towers is back to confuse and arouse with his esoteric review of Metro: Last Light.
"It was my own stupidity that first introduced me to the potential of the gameplay. It was the second or third time that I had ventured from the safety of the underground to the grey, dangerous drudgery of the outside world. The rain was falling heavily which meant that it was hard to see because of the thick drops of water collecting on my gas mask’s visor. I had to stop playing soon, so was in a rush. Triumphantly, I reached the climax of the level after a rather dull fight with some monsters whom—while no smarter—were at least more agile and faster than the human cannon fodder. Even so, it still came across as little more than a shooting gallery; their attack patterns predictable and easily intercepted even in the pouring rain."
But, uh, start from the beginning because power outages in the cold are hardly tantamount to sweatshop conditions.
Game Under Episode 7

Still doodling.
Resident Evil: Revelations Review
We spoke about Tom's review for Resident Evil: Revelations at laserlemming.com in this week's podcast, well it is now up for all to see.
It was interesting to read how a game designed for a hand-held system could jump the chasm and be playable on PC and home consoles. It will be interesting to see if more portable games follow suit given the advanced tech in the Vita and 3DS.
Revelations is—deep down—an action adventure game and not a survival horror one; though nor is it a straight forward third person shooter in the vein of Resident Evil 5.
This image best sums up the 3DS' graphic capabilities, now brought alive on PC and the home consoles.
Game Under Podcast Episode 6
This week we have breaking impressions (or broken impressions really) of Resident Evil: Revelations for the PC and consoles.
Tom also gives us impressions of Metro: Last Light and we break down the week's news as well covering NPD, Nintendo Direct, EA dropping DRM and of course we make time for a KillzONE Minute. Thank You for listening.

You have to do something while recording. I doodle. Tom... well, you can probably guess.
