It's the site's 3 year anniversary, and Chris, Eduardo and O.G. go over the Texas ComicCon that they attended, the decision from Supreme Court strikingdown the California mature video game law, the anti-streaming bill that's in Congress, and a quick review of Duke Nukem Forever. O.G. then goes on, not just one, but two rants. One rant about how he's a gamer, not a geek. The other about the 2 losers that almost caused the site to not make it to 3 years.

What do you think of the Gamestop settlement in California?

Gamestop got exactly what it deserved. They've been screwing over gamers for too long.
The lawsuit was stupid. Consumers should have known better, and now, Gamestop will start reducing prices of trade-ins.
