After the shocking news that Disney is in the early process of acquiring Nintendo, the house of mouse has just announced its plans to buy toy giants Mattel and Hasbro.

This week we are drinking beer and talking VR. Please come take a listen.

This week we discuss the winners of the Cinelinx Movie Awards. We also talk about our favorite romantic movies and the awesome success of our Kickstarter and we end the episode by talking about the deaths of Philip Seymour Hoffman and Shirley Temple Black.

The latest episode the Fathergamer podcast sees the crew talking about the games they enjoyed the most in 2013 and why they were so fun and exciting.  As we look forward to 2014 and all the great gaming experiences we've yet to enjoy, it's important to remember all the industry produced in previously.

Let’s start off this review by saying that I never thought that two little pieces of plastic would be any help to my FPS prowess. It’s not that I thought that KontrolFreeks FPS Freek Phantom analog stick adapters would be the worst thing since spray-on hair, but it was more of an indifference. I have to say that these two little pieces have rocked my FPS world in a way that I didn’t think was possible. Aliens landing on Earth would have made less of an impact on me than this. Well, maybe….but let’s get onto the review.

This week on TFGP, Eric and Jordan welcome Michael Mendheim, the creator of the original Mutant League Football game on the SNES and Genesis to the show.  Inside Michael talks about what he's working on, what games he's playing (or not playing), and dishes on what he learned from his recent unsuccessful Kickstarter campaign to reboot the retro franchise.  Come inside to hear what this gaming legend has to say!

My experience with the 360 version of the immensely popular PC phenomenon, World of Tanks 360, has been extremely enjoyable so far. The battles can be a little slower than the average shooter, but the trade off is a real sense of strategy. From choosing the right upgrade or making sure you shoot out your enemy’s treads, strategy is the only way to really survive these WWll battlefields.

In episode one of The Wolf Among Us: Faith, Telltale Games has given us a smart and sharply written take on Bill Willingham’s Fables comic.
