Joystiq Podcast 048 - You have to burn the show edition


Sadly, Ludwig couldn't join us this week, but not sadly, the show is much better without him (by which we mean shorter). We're talking new Prince of Persia this episode as well as (surprise) Grand Theft Auto IV. Also, in a shocking non-video game related turn, Justin shares his experiences with the highly-coveted Risk: Black Ops.

Then, towards the end, two huge contests that could net you a DS Lite, a copy of GTA IV or several other prizes. Check it totally out, especially if you're a songwriter!
