This is a bit of a different episode where we talk about movies gamers should see, movies based on games and games based on movies. In fact we carry on about movies quite a bit and present you with our longest show to date! Don’t fret though, we also talk a lot about games – rather than one or two in-depth reviews though, we introduce you to more than 20 different games related to films and television! We hope you enjoy our very special Movie Episode.
