Enjoyed this episode!
On Battlefield: I've never been a big PC gamer but I do vaguely remember the early Battlefield multiplayer being a big deal.
On "tacked-on" multiplayer: I agree with you guys. You pretty much know what you're getting into whether you buy the latest Call of Duty or Battlefield. There aren't any games that I can think of that the addition of multiplayer ruined the single player experience. I think the latest Dead Space added co-op but I'm pretty sure that it was optional.

Great to hear! What did you think about having a guest on the show? Did it make it too busy? Did it enhance the show by adding a different pointnof view and voice? This could be something to consider if we were to have future guests.

Loved the flash back to last episodes Together RPG discussion. Liked the added guest input as well. Keep up the good work.

I liked the guest host and appreciated their input. My only 'problem' is that the show was a little longer than usual. I had to listen to half of the podcast yesterday and finish it up today.
I don't think I'd like every podcast to be as long as this one but I really enjoyed having another perspective on things.
