No Podcast This Week

[Note: Due to a mic issue, some of the podcast is slightly distorted.]

This week’s podcast was recorded a day early due to schedule conflicts, but we make up for it with an actual Gaming Flashback this week of one of the most famous recent RPGs, Knights of the Old Republic.

In addition, there’s a ton of news:

• Brad Wardell states RTS’s aren’t dying – just waiting
• Microsoft considered buying Sega at one point
• UK: Wii U sells just 34,000 pieces of software in January
• Next World of Warcraft update to arrive in the “coming weeks”
• thatgamecompany had been bankrupt when Journey shipped
• Report: Next-gen Xbox will feature Siri-like voice recog
• Ubisoft plans new Assassin’s Creed game for 2013/14, set in a new time period

All that plus Reader Feedback and a Question of the Week: “What was the first roleplaying game you enjoyed?”
