Oh man, it’s late. We’ve been playing a lot of Horde mode in Gears of War 3 tonight, and now it’s way past my bedtime. Yet, I’m here dear listeners, finishing up this post and making it live on the webs so we can download it in the morning for your drive to work. It’s me pleasure, we appreciate each and every one of you that listens to us!

Really no matter what you celebrate giving gifts is the reason for the season, and PGM is now getting into the act!
We have a sealed copy of the recently released tabletop RPG Gamma World from Wizards of the Coast and we’d love it ever so much if we could pass it along to you for free! It’s got everything you need for you and some friends to make characters and play an adventure.
So what do you need to do to win this awesome game? Well, either drop a comment in this story or send us an email to podcast@perpetualgeekmachine.net. That’s it! About a week from now I’ll pull a winner at random and ship it out!
If you’re wondering about Gamma World you can read our entire review here and if you’re not following us on Twitter @perpetualgeek I’d say you should start… we’re giving away some free copies of some of the crazier Steam sale deals over there!

Turkey Day is over once again, which means like it or not we’re into the holiday shopping season. We’re going to be here all this week to give you the low down on the stuff you SHOULD be buying for your loved ones (of course that means people you really love and not just the people you’re expected to love, just buy those people crap.) We’re kicking things off with analog games (board, rpg, etc) but over the course of the week we’ll hit music/movies, video games and all sorts of cool shit.
But let’s take a look at some of the board/card/dice games that would make great gifts! Think we missed any good ones? Let us know in the comments!

I can’t imagine we could’ve looked less like heroes, but there we were… champion of the wastes and what remained of reality after “The Big Mistake.” A giant sentient coke machine, a Yeti with the ability to shake the earth, a radioactive cockroach we called “Larry,” a half man/hawk that was forever on fire and a swarm of mechanical rats. Such is life in Gamma World, where even this rag-tag group of outcasts manages to fight (and die) for good out in the middle of nowhere.
Gamma World is the recent release by Wizards of the Coast that takes us back to the much loved world of the same name. They’ve moved it away (though not by much) from the standard Dungeons and Dragons banner and put it into it’s own space, heavily based on the rules we know from 4th Edition with some pretty intense streamlining. In short they made the game more open, easier to learn, and more dependent on your imagination and willingness to have a fun and slightly goofy time. It’s awesome.

Welcome again everyone to another episode of Perpetual Geek Machine! It’s episode 12 which is in itself hard to get excited about since it holds no arbitrary significance to us. Of course, that doesn’t mean we don’t bring our A game… cause we most certainly do.
This show is spread all across the map in terms of topics, since we hit video games, zombie tv, keytars, board games, and deep space exploration. Enjoy the show!

I can offer you either a small treasure map that points to a chest which contains hundreds of old coins, or some show notes. Show notes? Really? I’d have expected you to choose the map. Oh well, show notes it is!
