  • Esselhaych : Although, Duke, to clarify, if you did want to be a princess that would be perfectly ok and we'd still love you just the same. But I think maybe you'd have to be a Duchess rather than a Duke then. *Is confused* :-?

The Veteran Gamers Episode 108 – Trololololol!

Welcome to show 108.

This week Chinny yet again plays zero games, The Daddy plays Quarrel, Pullblox, Dark Souls and some Portal 2 co op and Duke is still making his way through Assassin’s Creed, checked out the demo for Puddle and jumped into some more Battlefield 3.

VlaDOS gives us Ocean Drive Challenge to play, we went though all the weeks top news stories and gave a run down of the most pirated games of 2011; is it as big a deal as the developers make out?

Enjoy.

Quarrel – Words Are Power

It’s not very often that 400 point games come out on Xbox Live Arcade anymore, most game developers opt for the more usual 1200 point price tag.

So when people see the price of Quarrel they may be a little concerned, as this sometimes indicates a substandard game. On this occasion thankfully this would be a wrong assumption, as Quarrel actually has the charm of Worms the strategy of Risk, the word play of Scrabble and a timer to ensure that games are kept tense and competitive.

Welcome to show 107.

This week Duke and The Daddy played The Kingdom of Amalur and The Darkness 2 demos along with Dark Souls and even more Skyrim if that’s at all possible and Chinny played some sound clips!

Surface Lizard is back with some ramblings about VVVVVV and we finish off with some emails.

Dark Souls – Is It Really That Hard?

Well the short answer to that question is yes definitely, but there is a longer answer which would suggest that it is not hard if you play it the right way.

I will now try and explain what I mean.
