**Video version on Youtube! - Gears of War has had lots of DLC over the years, and Raam's Shadow from 2011 is one of the very few story focused ones! The Gears Intel tripod gets together and dives deep into the E-Hole to talk all things Zeta Squad, and how this might be one of the coolest DLCs from the 360 era.

Taking on the infamous Locust leader from Gears 1, General RAAM, Zeta is led by Lt. Minh Young Kim (Gears 1) and comprised of familiar faces such as Michael Barrick (Gears of War comic series) and Tai Kaliso (Gears 2), and also includes a new female comrade, Alicia Valera."Uniquely, it also puts you in the perspective of RAAM, including allowing the player to utilise his ability to control the Kryll and use it as a weapon against the humans.

The podcast panel returns to talk all things Gears and gaming. We’re just shy of 2 months from the release of Gears of War reloaded, and outside of Xbox making life hard for themselves with game pass price hikes, the sentiment around Gears of War has been up and down, with Reloaded not setting things on fire with Playstation sales, and an already dwindling player count for the multiplayer, we decompress and go through all the post-launch news and talking points - despite the flashy visuals, and so called ‘definitive’ way to experience Gears of War 1, we ask - was it all worth it?
