This week’s Gaming Flashback has no cake — instead it’s the history of Portal. The guys try to keep the podcast meme-free as they discuss Valve’s first person puzzle platformer.

There’s also non-Portal related news items, too:

Chris Avellone may be teasing a new Fallout game
Street Fighter 5 will finally get an arcade mode in 2018
The SNES Classic has been hacked
Telltale patch removes assassinated ambassador from Batman: The Enemy Within

Anyway, this week’s news includes:

Minecraft Earth is closing in June
Bethesda tweets about Elder Scrolls
Hitman 3 will launch with trilogy-wide optimizations
