Cerebral Pop Contest: Win an XLBA or PSN card

We know. Our impromptu hiatus has left you feeling down? Sorry. The staff at Cerebral Pop has been pretty busy lately, but as we speak emails are being sent about getting some more content back on the site. Still, while we've been busy with other hassles of life, our podcasters have been trying their best to keep you entertained, so we think a contest is in order to help give them the thanks they deserve. There are two ways to enter! Here are the details:

Sophist Radio Episode 46 : Beef, Spice, and the Afterlife

In a very special episode of Sophist Radio, the crew does their best to imagine the last moments of a rapping and wrestling icon. The guys begin with a deconstruction of Aaron's hobbies and taste in women, then -- after a small fashion debate -- the crew dives head first into the games they've been playing over the past two weeks. James and Aaron talk about an indie title called 1916 - Der Unbekannte Krieg, and the crew cover the original Halo, Witcher 2, and The First Templar as well. All that and the usual tomfoolery and bad jokes you would expect from your friends here on Sophist Radio.

Game Review: Hoard (PSN)

Hoard's concept is different than what people might expect going in. When one hears it's a tabletop game about dragons waging battle against one another, they probably assume it's a game played with 40-sided die in a basement. Fear not faithful gamer, it is not a game that requires 23-hour gaming sessions and an endless supply of Mountain Dew paired with cheese doodles. It's actually a very fun, arcadey, pick-up-and-play type of game. It also happens to pack plenty of depth for those looking for it.
