PixelCast 51 – Pixel Reset
Like a Katamari that has expanded in size after an arduous battle to roll up a hill, the PixelHunt podcast has since reached the top and, with just a gentle push, is beginning the freefall tumble down the back half of the race to triple didgits. To celebrate we’ve… um, continued to slim down the show and… erm, sworn a bit.
Take heed listeners – the swear filter is gone! Why? Honestly, largely because editing four-lettered fiends out simply takes a surprising amount of time and effort. So, keep that in mind if you’re listening with kids (or parents, you rebellious teen youth, you) around.
As for the show itself, what we’ve been playing has taken a turn to the portable with Ken’s fatherly duties forcing him to spend more time with iOS titles, and Tim’s winter travels around Japan ensuring that his Vita has remained pleasantly dust free. And then James wakes from a nap and joins the second half of the show.
