Whoops, I accidentally got into Warframe. Even crazier? I think I might actually understand it now. I’ll tell you about my forays into that, we’ll talk a bit about the very little news happening out there, and then a mess of emails ranging from the wackos who think this was a bad year for video games to the best Transformers.
