Colby Dauch, of Plaid Hat Games, joins us in the third chair this time!

Up first Craig and Russ have all kinds of questions to ask Colby about what it's like getting a big game license, and Bioshock Infinite certainly is a big license.  Colby tells us how Plaid Hat got the deal and gives us a preview of the upcoming board game Bioshock Infinite: The Seige of Columbia.

Later Craig and Russ review the egyptian themed game Kemet.  Does the gameplay match the amazing component quality?

We're very excited to have Eric Summerer, of the Dice Tower Podcast, sitting in the third chair.  

Since Eric is a professional voice actor, we take the opportunity to grill him on what his profession is like and how does one go about recording an epic sci-fi audio book?

The D6 Generation game list is now live!  Every game we've ever given one of our "almost hour long" D6G detailed reviews is listed.

Each listing includes box art, quick thoughts from Craig and Russ, the D6G episode number the game was reviewed, and you can click on the game name for even more details.

We'll be sure to keep the list up to date going forward.  Hopefully this will help you quickly find a review of a game if you're trying to recommend it to a friend or even if you just want to re-listen again to brush up on the rules.

It's something listeners have been asking for and we're glad we can finally get it live.  We hope you'll find it handy!
