This week includes a Gaming Flashback about the sticky puzzle game World of Goo, which was one of the first games released without DLC — which is one of the main themes running through this podcast: videogame obsolescence. The guys also discuss James Gunn’s work on Lollipop Chainsaw and speedrun cheating.
The news for the week includes:
- Ubisoft to pull online from older games, which also takes away your DLC
- Sucker Punch has “no plans to revisit” its Sly Cooper or InFamous games
- Squad’s 50v50 tactical FPS action has moved over 3 million copies
- Fable reboot gets a new narrative lead
All this and Listener Feedback.

The episode is a little late in publishing, though it was recorded on time – you know, real-life delays. However, it’s worth the wait as the Gaming Flashback is Team Ico’s second title, a PlayStation 2 title called Shadow of the Colossus.
There’s also some of the meatiest news of the year, which includes:
- Joystiq and Massively shut down amid AOL downsizing
- Left Behind Games executive fined millions by the SEC, banned from trading stock
- Bill Gates says he’s concerned about machines becoming super-intelligent
- Google changes UK privacy policy, but avoids hefty fine
The Question of the Week is “Should Nintendo partner with Disney?“

Since Jonah Falcon is in London this week, there is no proper episode this week. However, that’s not to say we’re leaving you high and dry, as a new Outtakes episode is here for your listening pleasure, highlighted by Paul’s bile, Paul’s love of Shrinkydinks, and a long conversation between Jordan Lund and Jonah about Rob Liefeld’s Charlie Sheen-like departure from DC Comics.
See you next week when we have a normal episode.
