Platforms Episode 29 – The Artefact Bag

Josh Philpott and Nathan Lawrence (with David ‘Beardy’ McVay & Shane Gregory)

Platforms is a gamers podcast by gamers. The podcast is recorded live on Ustream with chat interaction so come and join the fun as your host candidly discuss the latest in the gaming world. The podcast is uncensored, explicit, honest and very non ‘PC’. Dave Kozicki is in France this week so Nathan Lawrence returns to fill his seat this week. We kick off this week with the trailer for ‘Splnter Cell: Conviction’, this week’s feature review. Due to Ustream dropping the ball this week, there was no live show, we recorded the audio show only.

Because there was no live feed, show notes are slightly different this week, here are the links to the stories that we talked about so you can see any of the pictures or videos we reference through out show.
