This week’s a lot of discussion of comic book movies, including the upcoming “Captain America: Civil War”. In fact, it dominates most of the podcast. However, there is some discussion of video games.
This week’s news includes:
- Free money suddenly showed up in some people’s Steam accounts
- “Obviously there’s going to be another Borderlands,” says Gearbox
- Rumor: Nintendo NX to be officially revealed this or next week
- Rumor: Xbox One upgrade under development at Microsoft
Question of the Week: “Would you buy a updated console like the PlayStation 4.5 or Xbox One and a Half?”
The month, June 2008, Metal Gear Solid 4 takes number one on the NDP figures with 774,600 individual units (over 1-million if you include bundles), in July… they didn’t even make the top ten figure. What the heck?
The undeniable rumor, as expected, has come to be true and Microsoft’s Major Nelson has revealed September 5th as the day the Xbox 360 shall drop in price. Although not surprising, this is really the first good price drop for the 360 hardware which does not involve phasing out an old product line.
