Checkpoint Chat

We're back and we've brought a chest full of games! On this show we chat about how damn good Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced is, how to hit a button the best in Rhythm Paradise Groove, earning the number in 007 First Light, and just what the hell is a Mina the Hollower anyway?
