BULLETCAST, June 17 – What you need to know now
CDPR wants to make a PS3 version of The Witcher 2. Gears of War 3′s expected to sell 6 million units. See? This means you should watch a video of me telling you news. Then you’ll know what’s going on. You’d have to be clinically insane to not want to do this. Also: it’s Friday.
Watch:

I’d like to see a “I have no opinion on that” custom t-shirt with VG247 logo.
Or perhaps the image of a 50 storey high VG247 logo being exploded by a MEGATON explosion. The image would of course be mathematically accurate in order to best reflect the unerring accuracy of VG247′s news coverage.
Can any one else suggest nifty custom clothing for Pat to wear during the BULLETCAST?

I think we’re on to something here… I’ll salvage my PS3 and build a watch with a blue laser coming out of it.
