The anarchic final episode of Thumb Bandits goes out with a bang. The crew dive into Pikmin, debate the merits of Dead or Alive 3, Super Smash Bros. Melee and Shadow Man 2, and revisit favorites like Halo and Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. There’s news on the ultra-violent Resident Evil, a look at outrageous games marketing, and a chaotic tour-bus gaming session with metal icons Slipknot—plus competitions, upcoming releases and the usual rude send-off.
