Show notes

Episode 67 has arrived for your aural enjoyment! This week, we talk at length about what we’ve been playing and even briefly touch on some console gaming (shudder). The news starts off with an interesting announcement from AMD and some discussion about the merits of Windows 8, before moving into a plethora of gaming news. We talk the ambitious new Star Citizen project, a duo of new survival horror games in Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs and Outlast, the completely unnecessary microtransactions in Assassin’s Creed 3, PC Gamer’s guide to making your own indie games, and much more!

KBMOD Podcast – Episode 66 Oct 30, 2012

Show notes

Episode 66 arrives a little early for you this week! Since we now record live on Sundays at 10pm EST, the audio version will now go up each Tuesday, rather than Wednesday.

We open this week’s cast talking about the much-improved Hawken closed beta and the amazing community effort to help us fly past our Extra Life goal over this past weekend! In the news, Honoring Medals: Wiffbiter leads off our coverage as we question why this game even exists. We move on to TF2 for Linux, the release of Lucius (a game we highlighted quite a while back), PC Gamer’s five scariest games, the mind behind Amnesia wanting more mature-themed games, and more! Lastly, your Twitter questions leave us fighting bears and putting console controllers in inappropriate places. Enjoy!
