Episode 380: Calling All Goats

After a week off from Jonah being at PAX East 2015 and Paul being at GDC, the podcast is back, as this week’s Gaming Flashback is the landmark Guitar Hero. In addition, the podcast learns too late that Cities: Skylines runs on Windows XP. Paul also deals with goats, and the podcast is giving away a free code for Catlateral Damage.

This week’s news items include:

  • Report: Mississippi deputy fired over threatening Xbox Live players
  • Cities: Skylines breaks Paradox sales records
  • Titanfall DLC is free forever on Xbox One, PC, Xbox 360
  • Goat Simulator is coming to Xbox One and 360 in April
  • Cards Against Humanity is now online, free

This week’s Question of the Week, “What is your favorite gaming snack?”

  1. Great episode guys!

    I’m glad the cop got fired, not only is that behavior unacceptable but he doesn’t have the intelligence to realize he shouldn’t give his information out on Xbox like that. This is an apparent proof that there is something very wrong in our police force not just with Mississippi.

    Cities Skyline, what Simcity should have been, I wish EA would learn from things like this. Do you think they notice or care about this game’s apparent success?

    Goat simulator is a weird game that really doesn’t hold interest for me.

    As for the QotW; I’d say pizza rolls, or anything not too greasy or leaves crumbs, I can’t stand getting my controllers messy.
