It’s that time of year to dive into the games you meant to play but never did because there’s nothing new worth playing. We start things off with our On the Spot question from @coopman – What was your first video game all-nighter? Which gives us MMO flashbacks before moving onto our Leftover Summer Video Games. Our social network accounts want to make friends with the friends of your friends, um, friends. We’d appreciate you helping us out by spreading the word about – @HorribleNight, @TheHorribleShow, theCursed, and Facebook. Afterwards, we break the colorful rant cycle, but still get pretty annoyed about audio diaries and whether or not the Summer of Arcade is really released during the summer.
