Okay, so you already know that this is going to be a great episode because the title pays homage to the strongest rapper in the game … Will Smith.

Jesse and I found ourselves alone here on PixlTalk, but that didn’t stop us from having a lively, albeit lengthy conversation. Seeing how this was our last episode of 2011 we decided to take a look back at this momentous year for gaming. We cover all of the ups and downs that made 2011 what it was, while adding some of our own personal perspectives. If you’re looking for a great way to close out your year of gaming then look no further than this episode of PixlTalk. Hope you all enjoy and make sure to contact us at pixltalk@pixlbit.com with questions, comments, or suggestions you have for future episodes.
