This podcast marks the beginning of the end of Paul’s tenure as a regular co-host, as he will be leaving at the milestone episode 400.

The news includes:
- Portal, Doctor Who, The Simpsons and more confirmed for Lego Dimensions
- Report: Xbox One 60fps game DVR capture goes live
- Nintendo partners with Universal Parks to create themed rides and attractions
- Microsoft teases big Rare reveal at E3
All this and some nifty Listener Feedback.
