Joystiq Podcast 088 - Hermie Hopperhead edition

By Justin McElroy
The sad thing about this week's show is that no matter what's in it, it's not going to be as good as the photoshop Mike Santos made to accompany it. But dammit, we've got to try, so expect the usual silliness and discussion of X-Blades, 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand and more detailed Puzzle Quest: Galactrix diatribes than any of you probably wanted.

Also: Free sex advice! Oh, and after the break, a special treat for fans of last week's "Guess the Real Wii or DS Game," box art for the completely made up Baiden Baiden: You're the Light! by friend of the show Dan Diemer.
