    We're back with a new episode this week and it's our longest one yet.  This time out we are joined by Troy's older brother, Jason as we talk about the magnificent PlayStation 2. By the end of the episode we might very well have come to the conclusion that the PS2 is the greatest console of all time. We also discuss the Apple Arcade, Plants v Zombies - Battle for Neighborville, Borderlands 3 and whether Aquaman was a good movie...spoilers - it was!     Music featured: Intro is Skate by Komiku Break Music SuperBluesBros Banana Blitz by RoccoW This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License End credits Music Weeklybeats 2014 #2 - Daniel's Kruis by RoccoW This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License
