Sorry for the audio issues in this episode.

Just buy a Switch 1!”, Marathon won’t require a PlayStation Network account on PC and Xbox, and Endless Legend 2 comes to Steam Early Access in summer 2025.

There are many World of Warcraft players who basically play half their game in the auction house. I personally know of a gamer who has made thousands of gold pieces buying and selling there (*cough* Derrick). The only problem these people have is that they only have so many hours in the day to log in to World of Warcraft to run auction house sessions.
Their problems are over (or just beginning, depending on your point of view.)
Blizzard has announced that they’re giving a free trial of their new Auction House app that allows you to check in on Auction Houses remotely from your iOS device. As the ad states, it’ll allow you to “buy, sell, chat – anytime, anywhere”, which is a very scary thought for WoW widows. (Unless, of course, those significant others are also WoW gamers.)
Another app allows remote guild chatting, which is nice when you want to be in contact with your guild 24 hours a day, too.
The app will charge $2.99 a month after the free trial. Check both apps out here.
(Thanks, RPS.)
