Oh Snap, Two Years!

Wednesday, July 28th, 2010 – running time 20:15

It's our two year anniversary! We're celebrating with behind the scenes footage and outtakes and reviewing LIMBO for the 360!

We've been making Bytejacker for two years now, which is surprising for a couple of dudes that can't even keep a goldfish alive. In honor of this auspicious occasion, we're answering viewer questions, taking a look behind the scenes, and checking out your birthday wishes.

We've also got a review of the first game of this year's Summer of Arcade, LIMBO.

RADAR: LIMBO

XBLA, Platformer, Playdead, $15.00

We're two years into this show, guys. And if you've been watching for a while, you know how my tastes skew. I like my games dark, strange, cartoony, and atmospheric. Well, take a look at LIMBO, the first of this year's Summer of Arcade titles on XBLA. Looks like I've got a winner here. But what are the rest of you going to think?
