EA is looking to make Dead Space bigger and better, but their ideas show they aren’t trying to make it bigger or better for fans. Recent 3DS sales serve doom casting analyists a large cup of STFU, Sony’s looking to make a Smash Bros.-esque game, EA wants you to spend $30 a year on Tetris, and it turns out that online passes have an expiration date. We discuss all this plus more on this Mashcast.

Jarret is Executive Director as well as one of the founding members of Mash Those Buttons. He plays all types of games, but tends to lean more toward FPS, Stealth, and Combat games.
The only things Rob has been doing longer than gaming are breathing, sleeping, eating, and reading. RPGs were what made him view games as an experience instead of a distraction, but these days he likes and plays every genre gaming has to offer.
Outside of his usual reviews and articles on MTB, you can find Rob on the weekly Mashcast and frequenting Twitter.
Nick has been a gamer since the 8-bit days and a member of the MTB editorial team since January of 2011. He is not to be interrupted while questing his way through an RPG or desperately clinging to hope against all reason that his Philly sports teams will win any given game he may be watching. Seriously folks, reading this acknowledges that you relieve MTB of any and all legal liability for his actions.
