This week’s episode didn’t initially have a Gaming Flashback, but the crew accidentally started one with 2010’s Red Dead Redemption, which shouldn’t be a flashback since it fails the “10 Year Rule”, but it was so fun to talk about, it became one. They also found some interesting stuff in a thin-news week, which is the usual for Summer.
The news includes:
- Valve adds temporary fix for fake item scams on Steam
- Halo devs not working on Battle Royale mode for Infinite
- Nintendo Switch sales near 20m, down slightly on last year
- Playground Games staffs up for the rumored Fable reboot
Let us know what you think.
In this episode we’ve got a lot of MMO-style content and news. Although we’re not reviewing Wrath of the Lich King yet, we’ve got other subscription based news. This weeks gaming flashback is Defender and this weeks news includes:
