TalkRadar 25 – oooh, scary!

This week we're paradoxically talking about the scariest gaming moments, despite the fact games are never scary

Words: Brett Elston, GamesRadar US

Hope your ass is in-costume for our moderately special 25th episode of TalkRadar. This time we’re chatting up the least scary moments in otherwise scary games, then Charlie dares to suggest that games are, in fact, never scary. Then we fight about Silent Hill 2.

Also: all the usual BS we yap about every week, lovingly accentuated with profanity, sound effects and allegations that no judge or jury could ever prove.

Explicit Content Within! Persons with delicate ears should definitely not listen, as they will hear edgy no-no words freely spoken on South Park and HBO.

Awesome it's a long one. Proud of you guys for starting with 49 minutes and now you average at least an hour and a half.

Also, wtf @ walk.

Tdar is chock full of win. Also, w00t for using the awesomeness of Video Ouija as the intro.

You know, I was going to create an iTunes account just to write a rousing review for Talkradar, but guess what? You need a damn credit card to do so! Needless to say, I am pissed.

I was going to argue and rant about Charlie's article but I'm too tired right now.

Awesome as always, but that Miyamoto polygon/punch-out story thing scared the shit out of me.
