The Steam Deck has been released, and TJ and Scott are just excited about it. They’re able to play indie games on a Switch-like device even though many of the same games on the Switch. Jonah already has Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and therefore already plays games with a controller on his cellphone.
This week’s news includes:
- Some Steam Deck preorders won’t ship until September 2022
- PES is dead, replaced by the F2P ‘football platform’ eFootball
- Humankind dev pulls controversial Denuvo DRM from game before launch
- Xbox Game Pass is about to have an unbelievably good month

Jordan Lund can’t make Episode 280, but fortunately, Paul S. Nowak makes his triumphant return, albeit pumped full of medication. Enjoy his drug-fueled babbling as he waxes poetic on the virtues of playing social networking games while high.

- Cryptic calls for new MMO review system
- BioWare Mythic “can’t make all Ultima fans happy” but hope they “enjoy nostalgia”
- PS3 version of Black Ops 2 includes optional hi-res texture install
- Wii U gamepad won’t be sold separately at launch
Gaming Podcast is also running a new contest to win a free Steam code for the hotly anticipated XCOM: Enemy Unknown remake. All listeners have to do is answer the Question of the Week in the comments section, “What is your favorite game from the 1990’s?”
