576: Credits and Crystals

This week! We talk for like an hour about the bad week Electronic Arts/DICE have had with Battlefront II. Then we go into other things like ESRB ratings on small batch physical games and the next awesome video game movie - Rampage. Oh yeah and we played some stuff too and do some tweets. You know, the usual. Join us, won’t you?
