b'Hail Blockers!

This week we time travel to the present day and cover EA\'s newly released SimCity 5.

In the news:

Jane Jensen\'s new game, Moebius, will be out by the end of 2013.

Chris Roberts\' Cloud Imperium Games opens a new office in Santa Monica, CA.

The X-COM FPS has undergone some changes and is now being developed as a realtime tactical shooter called The Bureau.

We then get into the review of the new SimCity 5 (or SimCity 2013 or whatever you\'d like to call it). I talk quite a bit about gameplay and how the guts of he game work. I also discuss some of the continuing issues with the game and finally give you my verdict on whether it\'s worth buying or not.
