Because they’re such fans, Mike and Ajguy have already beaten Uncharted 2 and are here to pass the savings to you!

We are joined this week by special guest Derek Levigne of the PixelRevolt Podcast. As it turns out, he likes Persona, so Derek and Mike had a lot to talk about. Ajguy has finally, against all odds, beaten Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune and raced a bit in Need for Speed Shift. Oh, and remember when we said how sweet a new Rocket Knight would be in episode 100? Yeah, we’re pretty smart. And did someone say Epic Mickey?!
