Who says the summer is a terrible time to be a gamer? As this weeks show proves, summers are becoming an important part of the gaming calendar. Most of this is due in part to the Xbox live "summer of arcade". The first game released in this years summer of arcade was the highly buzzed and critically acclaimed BASTION. Bastion is a throwback rpg with tons of charm and personality and the crew really enjoyed their time with the game. After throwing down the verdict on this years biggest Summer of Arcade game the crew tackles the polarizing romantic horror game from the persona team, Catherine. Shea goes to battle against morgan and josh as the crew debate the quality of Catherine. Reviews across the net have been fairly divisive. Critics either love the game, or loathe it...and the crew of SPT had similar reactions. You dont want to miss this exciting conversation as we delve deep into one of the years most talked about games. The crew rounds up the show with some quick hitters concerning the rest of the summer of arcade including Insanely twisted shadow planet, and from dust. We love to hear from you, drop us an email (address is below in the post) or leave us a comment on the post as well. Have a great one! SPT out!
