The Obscurecast show

Summary: Hello brave Obscureonauts out there in the great dark beyond of them there Information Super-Highways! We're invading your ear holes again and this week!

And on that bombshell we find the biggest asshole on the internet, Microsoft need to stop it's staff sounding off at XBox skeptics on Twitter,  and EA wins the Worst Company in America Award for the second year in a row! But it's not all negative, because Ninty is bringing 1950's classic films, to your childs favorite hand held console... ...wait what?!
