In this month's episode of the PlayCast, Rich (singlebanana) and Shawn (GrayGhost81) are joined by long-time friend and former co-host of the show, Disposed Hero to discuss June's playthrough, Metal Gear Solid 2.  Join us as we sift our way through this winding narrative and give our thoughts on the gameplay, environments, music, and sounds. While Shawn is an avid supporter of the Metal Gear Solid franchise, this is Rich's first experience with MGS2. Will their opinions of the game differ or be the same?  Tune in and find out!  

Also be sure to check out this month's Concertcast, which features an event that we've never tried before, an album fantasy draft.  This month's topic: Top 6 Grunge Albums. We want to know from our listeners, who has the best list?

As always, we are happy to hear your thoughts on the games we play on our discussion page (linked below). We will respond to your comments and are always happy to discuss the games in detail. Please be sure to rate and write a review of the show on iTunes and/or Podbean to help us increase our listenership. Thanks for the listen, we hope you enjoy the show!
