Podtacular 286: Lightning Round
Download
The whole gang is pretty much exhausted from real life stuff that’s happened this week, but this doesn’t keep us from at least mentioning all the information that was dropped over the last week. Game Informer continues to release more information about Halo 4, and we keep on taking as much as we can. We’ll do a more proper series of shows next week to cover the information properly and adequately, but for now, here’s a taste. Enjoy

“Getting a sniper on the roof: attempt # 37…” –David Myers

Do what you want.
We got an email the other day which I thought needed to be shared. It came from a disabled individual who refuses to let his disability get in the way of his gaming – and I thought others might like to hear his story. Check it out on our forum. (Louis Wu 15:56:38 UTC)
