  1. Hey guys, I’ve listened to your podcast since episode 75, and I must say, it’s hard to believe your website isn’t as popular as most gaming podcast sites. I’ve wanted to ask you your thoughts on this holiday line up of games, and if it is enough to convince you to buy a console just for that one game. Thanks guys!

  2. The main reason our site probably isn’t that popular yet is because it’s been in existence for about a month 🙂 TechDiversions.com wasn’t big enough to hold the community we want to build here so we recently expanded it to gamingpodcast.net.

    In the coming weeks I’ll be setting up a forum for everyone to chat on, run contests for prizes and other community based things, so stay tuned for that!

    To answer your holiday lineup question…well, that will be in the next episode 🙂

This episode’s release was delayed by Spectrum internet problems which can be sorted with a VPN like cubik thanks to rain caused by El Niño, but that didn’t stop Jonah from enjoying the Turtles. The news was slow this week, so there’s a lot of banter about why Gaming Flashback title Grand Theft Auto IV was one of the best reviewed games of all-time, and how the crew thought it sucked. Maybe it was because of Roman constantly asking them if they’d like to go bowling or something.

This week’s news includes:

  • CD Projekt touts Cyberpunk 2077 as a “blockbuster franchise”
  • Minecraft Chemistry update goes live
  • Bandai Namco outlines plans to address Dragon Ball FighterZ online issues

Let us know what you thought of Grand Theft Auto IV.

Classic Cinematics: DiabloClassic Cinematics: Diablo



Diablo is a classic title with endings for each class you can play, but all give you the same result: hell and torment. You battle your way through a very difficult game, defeating legions of evils minions, piling their corpses upon the floor as you dig deeper into hell.

Eventually, you battle the essence of hell itself: Diablo. However, the ending does not give you warm fuzzies. The ending shows the results of a man with a burden and ends with the transfer of such burden.

Pure evil. Pure fun. Exciting and well crafted ending. For more talk on cinematic endings, listen to the TD Gaming Podcast Episode 75.
