It's time for another round of listener questions as we each recover from the 50 hours of games we played for last week's episode.
Did anyone need 100 minutes of mailbag questions? Probably not, but as ever: it happened.
Note: we recorded this week's episode before the Polygon and Giant Bomb layoffs if the tone around the games media chatter seems off.

Games Court is back! 23 listeners' pre-owned purchases go on trial in front of Judge Castle. Only the pathetic attorney Samuel Roberts can save them (or help send them to their deaths).
This one is strong in the first half, drags for its third quarter, but brings the energy back for the final part. A net gain, for our great podcast!
