Ep07: You Can Manipulate Objects

· Written by Curtis · Sunday, 12 April 2009 20:00 ·

In this episode, we change the format up a little bit. The Platoon decides to have a conversation about women in gaming and gamer stigma as portrayed by the mainstream media. To do so, we thought it would only be appropriate to include a female gaming guru in on the conversation. As the episode is centered around females and gaming, we also thought it would appropriate to chat about Jaime's girlfriend in TF2. Oh, and Andrew decides to call in from Ireland (where he is away on business) at 3:00am after consuming copious amounts of Guinness.

Dungeon Master,
Leisure Suit Larry in the Land of the Lounge Lizards,

I guess back in '87 they sure weren't afraid of long titles. The cast gets out of hand when the Platoon calls a former high school teacher and old school gaming guru. Subscribe in iTunes or grab the RSS feed, Digg it or Tweet it.
