It turns out that video games are a thing again, and we spend most of this week actually talking about them. Sure Destiny's been out for a few weeks but we needed to have some post-launch thoughts posted on it, including both sides of the "is it worth your time?" argument. That said, we're all in agreement that Shadow of Mordor is certainly worth your time. Oh, and when it comes to Roundabout? I have no idea.
- Follow the Giant Bomb Extra Life team!
- The Martian by Andy Weir is a spectacular book! Audible Link Here
- Giant Bomb's Star Citizen guys tend to gather here
- Check out the Giant Bomb PC Gaming Hub!
- Giant Bomb Premium Membership is totally worth it. And the video is awesome.
