I take a look at the first year of the Gundam Trading Card Game, and speculate on where the TCG is headed.

We got some reprints, tons of new cards, and some cool accessories. Is the game still worth getting into ? (yes)

This week the Dudette and I watched The Big Lebowski. A movie I only know from memes surprisingly - not to mention the unfortunate tv edits like "This is what happens when you fight a stranger in the Alps, Larry!"

Has The Dude's legend held up over all these years ?

I was one of the first backers of Star Citizen - a game which has been in a crowdfunding Alpha state for over a decade at this point. As someone who backed it and visits the game essentially on a yearly basis, Abby and I talk about what Star Citizen is, and what Star Citizen isn't.

*Note: Sorry about my audio for the first 4 minutes - for whatever reason my Mic was blasting. Tried to even it out, but it doesn't quite click until the 4 minute mark on.*
