We start by talking about what we've been playing (which includes some surprising titles from all parties). After that, the news touches on some rather big stories this week. The closing of Lucasarts headlines our discussion, but we also touch on the troubled Doom 4, EA's abysmal response to another worst company nomination, Blizzard's Titan and more.
