Episode 41: CVA’s, Fan Expo, and ALIENS




Vic's Basement show

Summary: Today on The Basement: Vic and Scott find the only person in North America who actually finished Aliens: Colonial Marines. The boys grill this Mystery Person—actually, it's our producer, Rob Koval, who is such a huge Aliens fan that he felt compelled to see the game through to completion—on the game's ending, which sounds like it might actually be even more terrible than the game's awful beginning. (Who would have thought that was even possible?) Man, what a P.O.S. that game is. Also: the boys get into a deep, super nerdy discussion about the Aliens universe. Finally, they talk games, Fan Expo: Vancouver (which takes place this weekend), and the Canadian Videogame Awards (which also takes place this weekend). And, as always, someone makes it weird at the end.
