Go Fract Yourself

Paul is back from the wilderness after defeating all of the nature and he is mad as hell! Also he played the smooth synthetic tones of FRACT OSC while Simone got down and dirty with Portal 2 Thinking with Time Machine Mod and James gets it on with Hitman Go. Not to mention that the landfill of ET cartridges has finally been uncovered, Mario Golf World Tour, Snoop Dogg, The Great Ace Attorney and much more including another great week of crowd funding projects.
