It’s been a number of Tuesdays since we’ve had a Jonathan Holmes Talking to Women About Videogames editorial for you (because the season is over), but today we did get a related treat — the album Talking to Women About Videogames: The Song(s), which you can listen to for free. Despite Holmes’ trepidation about putting this out there for us, it’s totally good (I personally dig the unplugged mix), so put it in your ears!

Today, Jim reviewed Mario Kart 7, we got to mass debatin’ (with a community member), Hamza looked at the new, potentially risky Rainbow 6 game, Wesley Ruscher previewed a unique-looking 3DS title, Fractured Soul: Dark Void, and more!
