This week on the Gaming Trend Podcast, Jeff is joined by our Glorious Leader Ron Burke! Jeff and Ron spend far, far too long talking about why Jeff hates “Beyond Divinity,” Ron give his favorite games of the year (all of them), and both go through a list of the major games this year. Lastly, Jeff had a chance to talk with Howie Schwartz, of HumanDemand.com about the challenges of marketing a mobile game in the vast sea of mobile apps. Oh, and there’s special music for this episode in honor of the Blue Bomber turning 25. Give a listen, and be sure to send any feedback to [email protected]
