TalkRadar 188 - Happy Slack Friday

The Hosts

The Content

It's a short week here at the GamesRadar offices as we all prepare to stuff ourselves stupid with turkey, gravy, alcohol, and awkward family conversations about politics. Because we're busy pretending to be sick to skip our family dinners, it's a shorter than normal episode this week - sorry! But hey, that doesn't mean it's short on fun (Full disclosure: it might be slightly short on fun)! We don't talk about new releases because HA HA HA there really aren't any besides Zelda, which we talked about last week. Instead, get ready to hear us run through the Top 7... most giving characters in gaming in celebration of this week's holiday before going through all of the awesome Black Friday deals you've probably already slept through (before buying them on Amazon in the afternoon).

The question of the week was "What game are you unfortunately putting off for the time being?" and there are a ton of answers on the forum .
