What We Are Playing April 2011 – The Horrible Show 042011

We’ve been playing a few games the past month, culminating in a great time at Net Heads. Justin, Cole, Ethan, and Gifford recap the whats and whys of their recent game library to relive Portal, WWE All-Stars, Crysis 2, Monday Night Combat, and others.

Enough of this editorializing and headline coverage, we’re here to talk about our games. Not until we get off topic with our Threesomes of the Week where the relationship of the Justins may be changed forever. It’s no secret this week, that our crew had a blast at Net Heads and Cole wants to know how our lives would have been different if Net Heads had been around in our hometowns while we grew up in this week’s On the Spot question. Afterwards, Justins and Cole leave Ethan behind in our monthly gaming discussion covering 4 playthroughs of Mass Effect 2, confusion over Crysis 2‘s appeal, and an uncomfortable amount of baseball conversation. At least it’s about a baseball video game though. Will Ethan return in time for the game industry shout-outs? Stay tuned or skip forward to find out on the exciting conclusion to this week’s The Horrible Show brought to you by stun guns.
