The previous week’s episode had too many technical issues to post, so this week’s episode overcompensates by being over two hours long. The Gaming Flashback this week is none other than 2009’s Minecraft, which is still going strong well into 2019.
This week’s news includes:
- Microsoft explains Xbox Game Pass for PC, selling games on Steam (from GameWatcher)
- The Avengers game is being revealed at E3 2019
- Super Mario Maker 2‘s lack of costumes and online matchmaking with friends upsets fans
- Wolfenstein: Youngblood to feature ray-tracing technology
All this and Listener Feedback.
The undeniable rumor, as expected, has come to be true and Microsoft’s Major Nelson has revealed September 5th as the day the Xbox 360 shall drop in price. Although not surprising, this is really the first good price drop for the 360 hardware which does not involve phasing out an old product line.
