So what exactly is the Backlog Busting Project? Biweekly, Wes and Randy get together to talk about some of the latest things in the gaming community, then dive right into talking about their experiences with three different games:

1. A game that Wes is playing but Randy is not
2. A game that Randy is playing but Wes is not
3. A game that both are playing.
