Summary

This week the crew is joined by special guest Naomi Kyle! The ladies discuss EA’s upsetting announcement that Visceral Games is being closed and what the future holds for (what was) Amy Hennig’s Star Wars title. Also, what’s up with Activision’s shady-sounding patent that influences players to purchase in-game items? Hands-on impressions include Shadow of War, The Fractured But Whole, Another Lost Phone and more. Naomi talks about her role at IGN, and what she would do if she wasn't in the video game business!

0:57.6	here with us in studio Naomi Kyle is here. Hey guys, how's it going? Welcome to the show. Thank you so
1:03.9	much for coming down and joining us. You know, me and the girls talk a lot about how we have so many
1:10.0	cool friends that work in the video games business, but we haven't really gotten an opportunity to get
