It's time to get all hot under the collar, red in the face, heart a-fluttering and delve into the sauciest episode of Button Boys to date. This week it's all about the video game characters the Boys crush hardest for. From Pokémon to The Sims to a giant alien turtle, the content of this episode would leave Freud foaming at the mouth like a rabid dog. Speaking of the psychology, Pierre's been locked into the heads of battle-hardened veterans this week as he's struggled his way through the latest Call of Duty offering; Glenn's been doing his best for the Japanese mascot industry; and Sarah's stumbled across a game that couldn't be more out of their comfort zone. And we get our first letter to the show from none other than Simon Podcast with a genuinely fascinating fact from way back in 2011. Apologies this week to our video audience, as we're having quite major technical difficulties with Pierre's camera. We hope the fix is not too distracting...
