This week, join Tom and Brian as they pine for the good old days of MMOs! The days when a player had to spend more time grinding then sleeping just to stay comfortably in the middle of the pack. The days when 3D geometry was just there for aesthetic purposes. The days before mass market appeal, where diehard players were willing to pay a monthly fee for more of a game they already hated with all their hearts! No wonder we're looking for a new game to play, those days were terrible!

With Erik out of range of the Ganza Signal, it's left for the dynamic duo of Tom and Brian to hold things down in Ganzam City. Determined that this two-man episode not be mere fan service filler, the semi-dynamic duo ponder the upcoming "Gotham" TV series and where it will land on the spectrum of prequels, sequels, and side stories.

This week, The Nerdstravaganza Podcast crew are excited and concerned about the release of anime favorite Attack on Titan on Cartoon Network's Toonami Block. Have we moved beyond the atrocities of the past and into a golden age of anime localization, or will this new version of the series fall flatter than a new recruit on their first day in maneuver gear?
