This week’s episode of Gaming Podcast has a special guest co-host, Andrew Yoon, formerly of Joystiq and currently in card game and video game development. The Gaming Flashback is the one that started them all: LEGO Star Wars: The Video Game.
The slow news week includes:
- DDoS service targeting PSN and Xbox powered by home Internet routers
- Japanese console sales continued to slide in 2014
- Evolve’s questionable bargain: pre-purchase to avoid the unlock grind
- Sony delays PS4 in China
The Question of the Week: “What is your favorite, if any, LEGO videogames?”

Nintendo has announced the continuation in a series that started in 1984 known as Punch-Out!! for the Wii. Once upon a time we all got to pop coins into Punch-Out!!, later we were able to power on our NES and play Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out!! or, if you’re younger, the version of Punch-Out!! with Mr. Dream (since Tyson’s contract expired with Nintendo and he wasn’t the champion anymore).
