   You Should Start Refunding Your Games (seriously) / Do It On The Day Podcast

   not clickbait, i really think you should! the age of the demo is dead and it shouldn't mean you miss out on seeing so many of the wonderful games that are coming out i started this episode thinking i was saving you money and realised i might be costing you more so, uh, sorry about that PLEASE CHECK THE FINE PRINT & prob don't abuse the system but just a lil as a treat but i didn't tell you to if anyone asks (also i put 007 footage over the top of me talking so you have something to look at like it's subway surfers)
