Mashcast #10: Splinter Hitman Solid

In this podcast we get into Duke Nukem's PR team lashing out at reviewers, Hitman looking more like Metal Gear, Women being ignored as a gaming audience, Rainbow Six delivering some of the biggest moral decisions you've ever had to face, Nintendo constantly disappointing with every drop of Wii U news, and EA chopping up Battlefield and serving it as DLC. All that plus more. Check out the links below in the show notes.
