SIDEBAR: Videogame Creepypastas LIVE(ish)!

Our tradition of collating the greatest in internet-sourced amateur horror fiction about video games continues in our very first live episode! And, of course by "live," we mean "streamed on Twitch." This year's collection of free, unregulated creative writing exercises includes a glitched ROM of Metroid 2, an urban legend about a secret Numbers Station in Fallout 3, a massively-multiplayer murder simulation, and an experimental system that connects to your brain stem creating a situation where...say it with me...If You Die In The Game, You Die For Real.

Debate This! is streaming live every Monday night! You can find us on twitch.tv/debatethiscast every Monday at 8pm ET.
