This episode has some audio issues due to circumstances requiring Jonah to tape from outside in the NYC streets. Otherwise, this week’s news is Poke-mazing as some major issues hit the video game world this past week.
The news includes:
- Valve’s Counter-Strike illegal gambling controversy continues
- Red Dead Redemption sales jump 6000% after Xbox One backwards compatibility announcement
- Pokémon Go raises security concerns among Google users
This is the contest’s last week. The Question of the Week is “How much is too much data to share with a game company?”

If you’re considering the Xbox 360 console, or plan to buy the Xbox 360 Arcade Edition for USD $279.99 please take pause, until the Xbox 360 20GB models dry up, you can now purchase them for USD $299.99. As Microsoft has bluntly stated, get them “while supplies last.”
I read that Russia will ban Pokemon GO.
Can’t wait for Civ 6. I’d love to win the bundle that includes the Civ 6 pen.
