Episode 430: Audio Issues

This episode has some audio issues due to circumstances requiring Jonah to tape from outside in the NYC streets. Otherwise, this week’s news is Poke-mazing as some major issues hit the video game world this past week.

The news includes:

  • Valve’s Counter-Strike illegal gambling controversy continues
  • Red Dead Redemption sales jump 6000% after Xbox One backwards compatibility announcement
  • Pokémon Go raises security concerns among Google users

This is the contest’s last week. The Question of the Week is “How much is too much data to share with a game company?”
