The State of Games, Ep. 115: The One About The Hotness

stateofgameslogonewIf there’s one thing most of us gamers get all excited about, it’s the new shiny in cardboard.

Some titles somehow tap into the zeitgeist and hurtle skyward with tons of hype, while other, equally-worthy, titles inexplicably tumble down into obscurity. We’re here to talk about this very thing, and how BGG’s The Hotness can make or break a game, and, sometimes, even a company.
