The TD Gaming Podcast and Videogame Roundtable merge, as Jonah Falcon introduces VGRT regular Jordan Lund to his new listeners, as the VGRT Gaming Podcast is born.
The podcast is a little rushed, however, as E3 approaches, giving the duo only some time to discuss the eventful past week, which includes the following news:
- The NGP to be called the PlayStation Vita
- PS4 in development .. oops, no it’s not
- DC Comics 1st day distribution
- Dungeon Empires out of beta
- Dead or Alive 3DS = child porn?
- Gears of War: Exile and Halo HD leaked
- Bungie showing new game on 7/7
- Gamestop honoring Duke Nukem Forever preorders
- Sales of Trials HD hit 2M
- Call of Duty: Elite announced
For this podcast, this Question of the Week is, “What game do you want to learn about the most at E3” Of course, by the time the next podcast is launched, that question will probably be satisfied. As for Reader Feedback, we didn’t have time to answer it, but we will respond to it next week!
