I know, what a random title for The Bender this week, but I assure you we hit all of these topics. We chit chat about the pros and cons of the Gayming panel hosted by EA, we attempt to figure out the negativity surrounding the unfounded claims of Left 4 Dead 2 being a “racist game”, and we also find the cost of games in the UK are rising, so get schooled by Allison in how economics work. All that and a lot more of the gaming news (including James not accepting MMA as a real sport), enjoy!
