By now you may have noticed there is no show this week. We have been without internet all weekend due to some bad weather conditions. As such, we’re going to enjoy a holiday break. We’ll be back next weekend with our regular show, and we’ll begin our countdown to our games of the year. We here at EBP Headquarters hope you have a happy Christmas/Hanukkah/Kwanzaa!
Get ready for the most epic NPD numbers ever! It’s so full of highs and low. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry. Etc. We also discuss what we feel is the best XBLA game ever. The Minotti brothers also prove that their softies thanks to their inability to role play evil in Fallout 3. And at long last, Mike has made it to Northrend.

Hey everyone, Mike here. Just a little heads up that the next episode will be up this Saturday night. Things are slightly delayed thanks to a busy schedule for both of us due to impending school finals. Also, my birthday is coming, or as I like to call it, the first Christmas in December.
Anyways, Ajguy finally beat Fallout 3, so I imagine that we will be doing a special end segment on the game. I also expect Ajguy will call me a cold blooded murderer as a result of our most recent Left 4 Dead session. I tell you now, he is a liar.
