Released! Spiral Radio101 LIVE Episode 22!

In this episode, an exceptionally sleepy Christina and much put-upon Stephen discuss the Halloween activities in Wizard101 and Pirate101, as well as the B.O.X.E.S event in Wizard101. Christina is excited for the release of Sid Meier’s Civilization: Beyond Earth and Stephen talks about the most recent updates to WoW and gives a bit of intel on Trion’s Archeage. They announced the winners of the most recent contest (what is the scariest pet in The Spiral?), read listener emails, and answer questions from the chat room. Both Stephen and Christina are readying to game it up in the Extra Life for Kids event. Thanks for listening!

I’m breaking down my game experiences with holiday events by game, leading up to the one game that I don’t think can be topped in terms of stellar events, and then I’ll let you use the comments to share some of your experiences!  Expect to hear more about the grandfather of good holiday events in a coming installment.
