Summary

To celebrate the release of Tomb Raider Anniversary (or, depending on who you ask, Pac-Man Championship Edition) the boys tackle the topic of retro remakes this week. Do we like â��em? Do we hate â��em? Should Square Enix just give up on the Final Fantasy remakes already? Youâ��ll have to listen to find out.

And after that, we take some listener calls (Dan likes to call them â��readerâ�� callsâ�¦heâ��s so cute) and discuss the current state of game magazines, the reaction to the most recent EGM redesign, and why dudes are so compelled to call us when theyâ��re drunk.

Of course, before all that the guys talk about the games theyâ��ve played in the last week, and somehow manage not to mention Catan or World of Warcraftâ�¦at least no more than a passing mention.

So listen already!

This week's links:
Planet Puzzle League
Youtube: Tetris Attack
Pac-Man Championship Edition
