We talk some serious shit about PCGAMER.COM's bullshit "best VR Headset of 2019" coverage, elliminate our much beloved "Pavlov VR" from our list of potential GOTY/Steam Awards candidates, and then tell you about 2 of the best sidescrolling platformers we've played ("Rayman Legends" and "Valfaris"). All this plus HUMONGOUS deals on the Van Helsing Franchise! An episode to cure almost ANY holiday blues (or at least provide a momentary, superficial salve). Tis the season!
