Episode 431: Pokemon NO!

The past week has been rife with news about Pokemon GO! and all of the chaos the mobile game has caused around the world with people hunting creatures in museums and police stations. The podcast mostly avoids the craze.

The news this week includes:

  • Fake Pokemon Go! apps could contain malware and force your phone to click on porn links
  • Fraudsters force RimWorld dev to stop giving out Steam keys
  • Bethesda defends $60 price tag for Skyrim Remastered
  • Xbox One S arrives August 2

We also announce the winner of the contest.

  1. Goldeneye 007 on the N64 looked bad, but it was one of my favorite N64 games other than Banjo-Kazooie, Mario Kart, and etc., but I would not like playing it now because I dislike controllers for first person shooters, I played it in its entirety, and I dislike playing against AI, so I would only want to play against friends, which is not so easy without the internet.

    Congratulations, JerryK!
