This week is a celebration of the 250th episode of the Videogame Roundtable, and Dan Quick is back for the special edition, joining fellow PolyCaster Scott Dirk. However, TJ Denzer was at the bowling alley, so he wasn’t available. There’s a lot of Cards Against Humanity and Town of Salem talk, as well as a lot of long-missed byplay between Dan and Jonah Falcon. Unfortunately, Paul Nowak couldn’t make it.
The news this week includes:
- Bethesda working on a “bleeding-edge” RPG
- Diablo II gets first official patch since 2011
- Forza Motorsport 6: Apex won’t crossplay with Xbox One version
- Nintendo explains why only the New 3DS plays SNES games
- U.S. DoJ increases hostility towards Apple in latest court filing
Let us know what you think.
EA Committed
The “year” Sony may be talking about is fiscal year 2009… which rolls into March 2010. Although Sony hasn’t tagged either title with an ETA, it’s being assumed that we’re talking 2009 until spring 2010. Given most games launch in the September and October time for the holiday season that leads us to believe it will either arrive for the holiday or slide to 2010. If the title isn’t ready for prime time by the holiday season, can you wait a full year for these games?
