This episode was delayed a few days thanks to some acting work for Jonah Falcon. The podcast moving forward will be recorded on Wednesdays, partly because videogame releases are on Tuesdays. The guys also discuss the disaster No Man’s Sky has been.

This week’s news includes:

EA strongly hints that Mass Effect games will get remastered
No Man’s Sky’s PC patch is out now
NPD: 3DS, Xbox One, And GTA V lead brutal July slump

All this and Listener Feedback, too.

I read that Civ 6 will use DX12, so it might help low tier PCs as the low-level API reduces overhead, and it could be coded for async compute to accommodate AMD GCN and Nvidia Pascal GPUs via concurrency to gain more performance:

Unfortunately, we had to skip a week despite recording a good podcast thanks to technical difficulties – don’t worry, we’ll air it at some point in the near future. It was a good episode. This episode had its own issues, as Jonah was unable to record the podcast at home, so he was outside in the New York City night air podcasting with TJ and Scott.

This week’s news includes:

Microsoft cancels Fable Legends, closes Press Play Studios, considers shuttering Lionhead Studios UK
Report: SpinTires developer sabotaged his own game
10 months later, MAME finishes its transition to open source
Valve announces The Lab, a compilation of free VR “experiments”

Let us know what you think.

Well, yes, it is real, just unannounced. The Xbox Series S is probably the worst kept secret at this point. In addition to the rumors, there’s some other interesting stuff going on pre-Gamescom.
