"Forget trees falling in the woods without anyone to hear them. In this weeks episode, we answer the age old question of what happens when a tree goes horizontal in Bean Town. And while that particular quandary may have caused us to lose a connection with contributor Mercer Smith-Looper half way through the show, that doesnt mean Andrew Martins, Patrick Kulikowski and Stephen Hilger werent able to close the whole thing out. Topics this week ranged from the Wiz Khalifa-infused Mortal Kombat X trailer to the grand opening of Barcade in Manhattan with all the added conversational sideroads and derailments youve come to love(?) and expect." - Pixelitis Staff

Pixel Related's Patrick Cassin writes: "Tropico 5 is addicting. I came to that realization some time around 1 a.m. after completing a campaign stage, seeing the next scenario Id be facing, then clicking on the island I wanted to start on. Internally I had that same argument as I had with my parents when I was a kid: I know its bed time, but let me just do this one thing first and then Ill save. Of course, I had used up that excuse three things ago. And if not for the superpower of the Superego (which is clearly where it derives the name), chances are Id be playing now, pretending as though I still need to see more before writing my review. But I know fun when I see it, and in all honesty those last ten hours were all for me."
