James Gilmour is back in the pod this week, joining Jon, Keith, and me for a special "What on earth is Apple going to do when it has all the money?" edition of the podcast.

Between having our minds boggled by large numbers and scratching our noses, we discuss the likelihood of Valve jumping into the mobile arena, why Gameloft appears to have turned N.O.V.A. into C.R.Y.S.I.S., and WWDC's ticket controversy.

Among the mid-week releases this week are the attractive cult 2D fighter Marvel vs. Capcom 2, as well as some not-so-good-looking titles that avocados won't enjoy (I'm not going to live that one down for a good few weeks, I fear).

In terms of What We've Been Playing, it's a bit of an 'old games' fest, as James has been trying Edge and Mass Effect Infiltrator, I've been partaking in a bit of The Bard's Tale, while Jon's been fighting in Kingdom Age and Last War. If you're wondering what happened to last week's episode, it was destroyed on account of my netbook crashing. Apologies about that.
