This episode we pull no punches, as Jason goes toe to toe with Game Crazy for the second time. Also, he finds a bug in the Uncharted 2 beta and talks about Magic: The Gathering in video game form. Steven goes toe to toe with Mr. Sandman and gets some hard core platform shooting done in Mega Man ZX Advent. Plus, Activision threatening Sony in the news and the console releases for the rest of the year, we think. So, pull out some popcorn and tune in for the fights.
