Don't worry, they're on it!
Some users playing Skyrim on the PlayStation 3 are having frame rate issues when their save files reach 6 MB. It's not known how widespread this issue is but enough have brought up the issue in Bethesda's official forums and now Pete Hines, Bethesda's VP of PR and Marketing, has issued a statement.
Also, a Hori-made arcade stick is coming soon.
If you think the recently released Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 is a glorified DLC pack, then I wonder what you're going to make of the new upcoming DLC costume packs. Capcom has announced that starting next week, alternative costumes will be available for download and will be bundled in various groups. Then, every other week, a new pack will be released. Hori has also announced plans to release an Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 themed fighting stick on December 8, 2011 for $149.99. It'll come with colored buttons or white buttons.
Available now for the Wii!

This week's PB & Jason revolves mainly around Mario! That's right, I've gotten my hands on Super Mario 3D Land now that it has released stateside, and I've been playing it like crazy. What do I think? The title of this issue is a hint, but you'll be able to find all the details inside the podcast! Don't worry, though, issue 65 has more than just Mario inside.

Skyrim is a popular game. Since its release last friday, it's been the title to play and mostly everyone is talking about it. It shouldn't be a surprise then to hear that the game has sold big. Real big.
Fun, gross, and more than worth its cost.
The Binding of Isaac is made by the same team that brought you Super Meat Boy, and it shows. Everything is familiar: the visuals (just as morbid), the music (same composer), even the difficulty level (not quite as bad but nowhere near easy). Though they’re from different genres, if you liked Super Meat Boy you’ll almost certainly like Binding of Isaac.
The new DLC is called Flashback Map Packs.

Syndicate stays true to its roots while adapting to the future.
When EA outed Syndicate early this year it was met with a fair amount of criticism. Critics specifically belabored the fact that the reboot was taking the beloved isometric action-adventure-strategy game and molding it into a “visceral first person shooter.” In a video game landscape where the FPS is king the move makes sense, but that doesn’t mean that longstanding fans are going to be understanding of the change. So it is perhaps with an olive branch extended that publisher EA has revealed that the new Syndicate will contain a robust four-player cooperative campaign to go along with the single-player experience.
