Welcome to Kitaku's split screen.

It is February 2nd, 2017.

We have got a special mailbag episode for you today.

Before we get into the listener mail,

we're going to talk a little bit about the PS4 game, Neo, which is out next week, and a little bit more about Resident Evil 7, which

I've been playing. Then we will get into the letters and talk about picking our games of the

We'll talk about Final Fantasy 15, and the world ends with you. We'll make some action RPG recommendations and some podcast recommendations.

It's going to be a really fun show and we thank everybody who took the time to write us an email over the last couple of months.

Listeners maybe aren't aware of just how much you've been working on this book and for how long,

but you've been working on it pretty hard. Yeah, I've talked about it a few times in the show, but I think that in case it wasn't clear,
