"From the beginning, we’ve run the Pixelitis Podcast as a three-person show. It just feels right. Four is too many and two – well, two results in the kind of awkward jibba-jabba we’ve got for you this week.
Andrew Martins and Patrick Kulikowski were left to fend for themselves with this episode, as everyone else was “too tired” and “busy with website stuff.” Psh. Weaklings.
Regardless of the others and their “responsibilities,” the pair got to talk about some of the week’s big stories, as well as this week’s coming releases. It’s only an hour long, so hopefully you won’t be too put off by this week’s oddball ‘cast.
Next week, the show will be New York bound."

Hideo Kojima is widely known as a video games auteur, but what are his best games outside the Metal Gear franchise?
You might not be able to believe this, but Dark Souls is a pretty tricky game on the PlayStation 3.
Fan projects Team Fortress: Source 2 and Portal 64 have shut down after Valve intervened in their development.
First they open Steam up to more AI, now they are shutting down fan projects when at one time they used to support or even give the fans jobs.
Wonder what's going on with Valve at the minute.
I mean, that might explain the Team Fortress 2 thing, because Valve might bring that to Source 2 (though I'm not sure I'd bet on that), but I can't see how Portal 64 hurts them. If anything, it's more attention to the Portal and therefore Valve/Steam.
There's potential that Valve had already planned to bring Source 2 to TF2 officially after Counter Strike 2. It's been getting some renewed attention lately.
You got Nintendo to thank for Portal64 being taken down. As for TF2, most likely it's due to the probability of Valve working on a source 2 port themselves. It's sucks but Nintendo are the biggest pricks in the business and not letting this drag out into a huge court drama is the best decision.
