As those of you who might have noticed when going to Google.com, Google has turned 14 today. Back in 1998, who knew that it would become the premiere search engine, before branching out to pick up such sites as YouTube, and starting its own web browser?

Here’s to Google, which is in the midst of puberty. Salud.

Episode 318: Do Androids Dream?Episode 318: Do Androids Dream?

This week’s podcast is full of Android-based console goodness – or badness, depending on your opinion of them. This week’s Gaming History looks at the Nintendo GameCube.

This week’s news includes:

Ouya game developers sound off on disappointing sales numbers
Nvidia plans July 31st launch of the Shield
Telltale Games confirms Clementine returns to The Walking Dead
Star Control now owned by Stardock
Battlestar Galactica writer/producer collaborating with Sony Santa Monica

All this and Listener Feedback, as well as the Question of the Week: “What is your favorite first person shooter of all time?”

Episode 510: Red Dead SurpriseEpisode 510: Red Dead Surprise

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.

Unfortunately, we had to skip a week despite recording a good podcast thanks to technical difficulties – don’t worry, we’ll air it at some point in the near future. It was a good episode. This episode had its own issues, as Jonah was unable to record the podcast at home, so he was outside in the New York City night air podcasting with TJ and Scott.
