Jordez and Nicknameless James are back with a very special double episode of the chaotic half hour video game podcast — The Reticule Presents Installing to Disk. This time around the lads still have E3 fever and kick all the usual segments to the curb in favour an extended discussion on all the games and consoles at E3 2012. So what are you waiting for, hit the jump for the embedded player with a nice little download button.

I think Paradox are winning my ‘Publisher of E3’ award for their constant reveal of lovely little trailer for games which aren’t just the norm.
