Pixelosophy Episode 91: Dirty Plates and Mugs

This Week 8/15

This week, on Pixelosophy, Aaron gets detained by the Mexican government. Apparently bringing the wrong baby back across the boarder can cause some problems. Anyway, we still have the latest and greatest Pixelosophy episode for you. It’s all about handhelds again, and although we shot it before we knew the Vita was not coming until [...]

This week, Pixelosophy keeps both hands in its pockets. Which can only mean that handheld gaming is back on the table for discussion.

Pixelosophy Episode 88: Baby on Board
