Are you a game collector or just a hoarder? This week, we’re talking about the nuances of video game collecting and how well we’ve been able to resist the allure of that shiny, new collector’s edition.
In the Hangover, we’re playing Steamworld Dig, Brothers: Two Sons of Mothers, Divekick, and D.J. rants a little about Shadows of the Damned‘s Big Boner.
We’ve also got highlights from the ongoing Backlog Attack contest, plus your Viewer Mail comments!

hey guys did you know that you could trade in xbox games to amazon and gamestop to get the xbox one version and ps3 is going to get something like it down the line also what do you guys think about the new tell tale game
These next-gen trade-in (trade-up?) programs are pretty great. I’m sure there’s a lot of hesitation among gamers wondering which generation platform to pick up some of these games on; hopefully this eases their decision a bit. Also, super cool that the transfer even extends to Call of Duty and Battlefield stats.
I don’t know much about the new Telltale Game (or the comic it’s based on), but I’m interested in playing something of theirs that’s not The Walking Dead. Maybe I’ll check it out in lieu of TWD season 2.
“The Wolf Among Us”, right? I saw the trailer just recently and thought it looked pretty cool. I’ve never read the comic it’s based on but I’m intrigued by the concept of living fables. I’ll definitely check it out.
