Summary
On the historic 246th episode of this podcast, we dig into the space madness of Saros, the match-three madness of Titanium Court, and the madness madness of Ultimate Drummer (plus the end of Pragmata). Also, Microsoft Gaming's... sorry, Xbox's new-ish direction, the AC: Black Flag remake, which developers' names have the best mouthfeel, what to do when your Legos get peed on, and more.
