This week’s episode is a little late thanks to unforeseen circumstances, but nothing will stop us from posting new episodes. It’s actually one day late, since last week was a week off, thanks to Podbean limits and Halloween. On that note, this week, Jonah had to erase a spoiler segment about The Force Awakens, but enough remains of the convo discussing other parts of the upcoming movie.
This week’s news:
- Sony not to offer backwards compatibility
- Advertising Standards Authority rules Valve misled customers with Grand Theft Auto V Steam Sale
- The Witcher movie slated for 2017
- Ubisoft admits poor Syndicate sales are due to franchise fatigue caused by Unity
- World of Warcraft paid subscribers at a nine year low at 5.5M
The Question of the Week is what we usually ask ourselves, but with all the new games coming out, “What have you been playing this week?”
Gamers around the world have noticed a large trend in the video game industry in the last 15 years, massive growth with massive projects and unbelievable costs, goals and sales. We’ve seen the impossible become achievable in epic projects like World of Warcraft and huge sales figures from Halo 3 but we’ve also seen game titles fall down in a burning wreck.
