Pixel Revolt LogoPixel Revolt is Bitmob's community-driven podcast, in which Derek Lavigne, Jeff Grubb, Brett Bates, and a special guest dive into the Mobfeed to discuss interesting posts written by Bitmob members. For the second half of the show, they throw a question out to the community so that you can have your voice heard. If you'd like to contribute your opinion to the show, follow the upload instructions after the break.

Pixel Revolt -- Episode 19

The show is supersized this week thanks to tremendous community input -- and the semicoherent ramblings of Bitmob intern Mike Minotti. (We kid, Mike. We love you.) Topics discussed include sensationalist reporting in game journalism, good and bad peripherals, learning when to let go of a bad game, and which expanded universe Brett geeked out for as a kid. All that and your answers to last episode's community question.
