Radar: Super Meat Boy Hands-On/Free Indie of the Year Candidates
We had the chance to play an early build of Super Meat Boy. How is it? Fucking delicious. We've got all the juicy details, lightly seasoned and pan-seared. Meat analogies.

Dude, it's small, but it's solid. It's totally aluminum. I'm actually really impressed with the build quality.

0:44 LOL. Ok, I'm glad how you handled it. But seriously, you SHOULD be labeling each episode with 'Bytejacker epsiode" or such.. I missed last weekend's AND I missed the one beforet his, or such.

Hmm, that's weird - in my subscriptions, videos always list who they're from. Do yours not do that?
