Episode 459: This Week and LastEpisode 459: This Week and Last
So, thanks to an untimely computer breakdown, last week’s episode could not be run in a timely manner. So, this double-length episode features an off-the-cuff discussion of videogames with no notes, with last week’s episode tacked on. There’s not much editing in the episode, due to the fact Jonah has to rush off to Boston to attend PAX East over the weekend.
Last week’s “news” includes:
- Middle Earth: Shadow of War leaked then announced
- Microsoft announces Netflix-style gaming for the Xbox One
- Videogame industry lobbying to maintain “repair monopoly”
- Microsoft plans to bring mixed reality to the Xbox in 2018
All this and some Listener Feedback

This week’s episode not only has a Gaming Flashback, but a Gaming History as well. The Flashback looks at the hardware intensive PC game Crysis, while the Gaming History looks at one of the bigger crowdfunding fiascos, Starforge. Jonah also reminds viewers that the “mayo” in the Splatfest for Splatoon 2 probably wasn’t actually mayo.
This week’s news items include:
- Lexington video game company sues after personal information posted online
- New game combines monster taming and Stardew Valley
- Respawn: “We’re doing more Titanfall“
- Destiny 2 will not offer customization of imported characters
