Description

At the time of recording (5/13/11) PSN was still down... Guess that's not the case anymore, but it's still not fully up.In terms of things that are still relevant, Soul Calibur V, Hitman Absolution, and Assassin's Creed Revelations were announced and discussed a bit.Also, something unspecified is happening with Alan Wake; but we definitely know it's not Alan Wake 2.Finally, if you've been anywhere near the internet you know that details on Modern Warfare 3 have been leaked.We talk about that a bit plus a few other topics.
