The Joystiq Show - 014: Swords and Mailbag-ery

It's a casual, four-day weekend sort of Joystiq Show this week. Now Playing has Richard, Justin and Griffin talking about two games with sword-centric gameplay, Infinity Blade II and The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. You heard it here first: If you like Infinity Blade, you will probably like Infinity Blade II. As for Zelda, it is a rare accomplishment that a game with so much "mind-numbing" fluff can be so good.

The second, and last segment, is all about you. It's the first edition of the Mailbag on The Joystiq Show, and Chris joins Richard in answering a slew of questions. If you want in on the action, drop us a line or give us a call at 1-(877)-JOYSTIQ.

You really should take your Friday/Saturday/Sunday afternoon with a stomach full of leftovers to listen to this one. It would be un-American not to.*

*Non-Americans get a pass, but you are still obligated to listen.

Part 1 (1:31) - Now Playing: Infinity Blade II and The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword
