After a week off from Jonah being at PAX East 2015 and Paul being at GDC, the podcast is back, as this week’s Gaming Flashback is the landmark Guitar Hero. In addition, the podcast learns too late that Cities: Skylines runs on Windows XP. Paul also deals with goats, and the podcast is giving away a free code for Catlateral Damage.

This week’s news items include:

  • Report: Mississippi deputy fired over threatening Xbox Live players
  • Cities: Skylines breaks Paradox sales records
  • Titanfall DLC is free forever on Xbox One, PC, Xbox 360
  • Goat Simulator is coming to Xbox One and 360 in April
  • Cards Against Humanity is now online, free

This week’s Question of the Week, “What is your favorite gaming snack?”

  1. Great episode guys!

    I’m glad the cop got fired, not only is that behavior unacceptable but he doesn’t have the intelligence to realize he shouldn’t give his information out on Xbox like that. This is an apparent proof that there is something very wrong in our police force not just with Mississippi.

    Cities Skyline, what Simcity should have been, I wish EA would learn from things like this. Do you think they notice or care about this game’s apparent success?

    Goat simulator is a weird game that really doesn’t hold interest for me.

    As for the QotW; I’d say pizza rolls, or anything not too greasy or leaves crumbs, I can’t stand getting my controllers messy.

GameSpy, UGO, 1UP Say FarewellGameSpy, UGO, 1UP Say Farewell

The videogame world has been stunned by the news that GameSpy, 1UP and UGO are all being shuttered. GameSpy had been around since 1999 (back when it was a mere online match service – game-spy, geddit?) UGO was a site that I wrote for both indirectly as an editor of GamePen and directly when I wrote DVD and game reviews for UGO.

UGO’s Chris Radtke bid farewell stating:

I’ve spent many years of my life trying to turn UGO.com into something entertaining for you guys. Hopefully you stopped by recently to watch one our funny videos. Or you found yourself debating one of our nerd culture lists, read a movie review or pondered the age old question “Who would win in a fight, a minotaur armed with a trident or a centaur armed with a crossbow.” Could be you tried to win something off our homepage or you Googled “Hot Girls” and found a couple of pics you liked. I don’t really care how you got here, just as long as you were entertained when you did.
