This week has a new recording date, Wednesday, so the crew can have more timely discussions about newly released games and more of the week’s news. Thanks to the Star Trek Convention, the podcast is still delayed a little.
This week’s news includes:
- People buy PS4 Slim consoles before it’s announced
- Rumor: Nintendo NX could be region-free
- Devs can now publish Windows apps straight to Xbox One
- Fallout 4 PS4 Mods not broken, but Sony hasn’t pushed it live yet
All this and Listener Feedback. We also have a new Question of the Week: “What is your favorite fan convention?”

The publication of this episode is a little late thanks to uncontrollable circumstances, but while Paul discusses the ending of Slicing Fractions, this week’s episode includes both a Gaming Flashback, Scramble, and a Gaming History which focuses on the Zelda series.
This week’s news includes:
- Apple fans report iPhone 6 bending in pockets
- Titan cancellation may have cost Blizzard more than $50 million
- Wasteland 2 earns $1.5 million revenue in four days
- Microsoft mistakenly affirms that Windows 9 will be revealed next week (from Ars Technica)
This week’s Gaming History discusses rumors that raged about Zelda games – Paul is not amused.

As Paul’s departure as a regular host is in 10 episodes, Jonah rants about the Batmobile in Batman: Arkham Knight and talks about the painlessness of Fallout Shelter‘s micro-transactions. The other part of the podcast is them talking Heroes of Might & Magic II, and discussing what makes a good expansion.
The news items include:
- Lack of female character choice in The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes explained
- Australian government bans hundreds of mobile and Web-based games
- Nintendo has no problems changing franchises, despite fan outcry
- Apple pulls games with Confederate flag imagery
All this plus Listener Feedback and Paul’s indignation.
