I like what Jonah said in your latest podcast regarding cannabis; I believe that not getting it after being on it for a while is what causes depression and so forth because of the neuro-endocrine system relying on it, but it should subside after normal functioning of the endocrine system returns, depending on the user. Also, paronoia might stem from stigma attached to it. Who knows how it would be if it were treated like coffee/caffeine?

There’s no Gaming Flashback or Gaming History, but there is a crapton of news this week on TD Gaming Podcast, which Jonah Falcon and Jordan Lund eagerly read.

That, and Jordan really wants to know what you have been playing.

The news this week includes:

Microsoft officially announces indie self-publishing, to be unveiled at GamesCom 2013
Phil Fish explodes on Twitter, cancels Fez II in a huff
Shadow of the Eternals back on Kickstarter, no longer episodic
Neil Gaiman has announced his first videogame, Wayward Manor
Lanning: Nintendo will be around for “100 years,” but probably not Zynga or Microsoft
Activision-Blizzard buys out $8.2B of its own stock from Vivendi
Paid subscribership of World of Warcraft down to 7.7M

All this and Listener feedback.

This episode has some white noise during it, so please don’t listen to it wearing headphones. The mic that was used is dying, so I purchased a new mic which will be used for Episode 626.

Til then, the news includes:

Twitch sues hate raiders
Paradox CEO apologizes for “inappropriate behavior” with employee in 2018
Sony shuts down online for older LittleBigPlanet games “to protect the community”
Darkest Dungeon 2 Early Access release date set for October

Let us know what you think.

Unfortunately, Skype decided that since Jonah’s webcam was connected, he wanted to use the webcam’s mic instead of the actual mic Jonah uses, making it sound like he’s in the next room talking to the others. It’s unfortunate, since this was the 350th episode of the Videogame Roundtable and longtime co-host Paul Nowak took the time from his busy schedule to join in the landmark episode.

This week’s news includes:

Skybound Games will finish the final season of Telltale’s The Walking Dead
Star Citizen’s latest promise rakes in almost a million dollars
Blizzard denies Diablo: Reign of Terror is a BlizzCon leak
Microsoft looking to partner with new Japanese studios
Report: PS4 users are setting messages to private after discovering new bug that bricks consoles
