In Episode 552, there was no TJ. This time, Scott has to duck out early in the podcast, leaving a two man podcast again. It’s all good since the quality is still there. (Maybe not.) There’s also a Gaming Flashback: Burnout Paradise.

This week’s news includes:

  • Anthem reportedly set for major overhaul as BioWare looks to reboot its troubled game
  • Minecraft Dungeons will be supported long term with a mix of free updates and paid DLC
  • Dragon Quest Builders 2 is coming to Steam

Let us know what you think.

This week’s podcast has been seriously delayed due to Jonah’s computer going belly up, then having to deal with reinstalling everything. Not to worry, however, since everything on the old hard drive was saved, learn more at desky.com.au. If that weren’t enough, Jonah is enjoying his new Xbox One X Project Scorpio Edition.

The news of the week includes:

  • EA responds to community criticism of Battlefront 2 unlock system
  • L.A. Noire remaster requires 29GB, forcing Switch version to require MicroSD card
  • Physical media still “nation’s format of choice” for video games, says eBay
  • Xbox One S available for lowest price yet

Xbox 360: Play Games From Hard DriveXbox 360: Play Games From Hard Drive

Major Nelson outlined some of the new features coming to Dashboard and the Xbox 360. Besides the avatar feature, which is cute, we’re going to have the ability to install games directly to the hard drive and play them.

This feature explains the recent press release about the 60GB Xbox 360 and the price drop on the old 20GB box. Once we can install on our hard disk we’re going to be able to watch our disk space fade away just like we can do, today, on our PC.

You’re going to need to keep the disk in the drive, however, to play the Xbox 360 games you’ve purchased. This will continue to be Microsoft’s solution to Digital Rights Management (DRM) with their console. The end goal, however, is a faster load and a much quieter gaming experience as the 360 DVD player is tremendously loud.

Pretty soon this system is going to be no better than a PC if it keeps getting features like this!
