Access Episode 33

Sometimes thinking about magic makes us sad, like when Harry Potter ended and one of the Weasley twins wouldn’t wake up, or that time in school when Mr McMonies was going through a divorce and taught physics in a wide-brim wizard’s hat before bursting into tears and refusing to come out of the cupboard.

Other times, though, it means firing spells using a PlayStation Move motion controller as a wand and feeling like an arcane badass. Like in this episode’s Game Of The Week, Sorcery, which also includes mixing potions (don’t do fairytale herbs, kids), moving big rocks out of the way and sort of having a cat as a girlfriend.

Elsewhere things are less unusual, as our news round-up sees us at Sundance London and talking to Call Of Duty: Black Ops 2 developer Treyarch. And, sticking with shooters, we put your questions to the men (or, in this case, singular bearded man) behind Medal Of Honor: Warfighter, with results that include checking that we really meant to ask that, and, after confirming that we did, eventually some answers.

Capping it all off is a visit to Honeyslug to speak to two of the minds behind the free and essential PlayStation Vita… well, not so much “game” as “experience involving buttons and laughing which makes you gladder you bought a PS Vita” (note: Frobisher does /not/ care that “gladder” isn’t a word).

Access is available every Friday on YouTube, and is free to download for all UK PSN users from the PlayStation Store on Wednesdays.
