Episode 433: Kickstarter Fail

The episode is posted a little late due to unforeseen circumstances, and focuses on Kickstarter videogames, both failures and successes. The podcast also asks Pokémon Go fans if they really needed those tracking software for the game.

This week’s news includes:

  • “Other surprises” in store for NX, says Ubisoft
  • Fixes promised for botched Marvel Ultimate Alliance ports
  • Pokémon Go fans rage as tracking site shuts down
  • PlayStation VR requires about 60-square feet of space to use

Let us know what you think.

The last podcast of 2019 is also the last podcast of the 2010’s, as Jonah, TJ and Scott discuss the past year of videogames, while mentioning some of the news from last week, like the announcement of The Wolf Among Us 2 and the Xbox Series X. The last podcast is also the longest ever, clocking in at over 2 and 3/4 hours.

The Question of the Week: “What was your favorite videogame of the past decade?”

This podcast was recorded on short notice, so it’s on the short side. It’s also a little dated, since the Fallout 4 news was going to be announced the next day at the recording, and the publishing is a day after it’s official reveal. There’s an actual Gaming Flashback this week, with Destroy All Humans!, which shockingly Paul never played.

The news in this podcast includes:

  • Indie dev discusses where the money goes
  • Fallout 4 announcement coming June 3
  • New Steam refunds policy makes some devs concerned

All this and Listener Feeedback.

Episode 383: Get Some Board Games InEpisode 383: Get Some Board Games In

This episode was recorded on short notice thanks to last week’s late posting, so the Listener Feedback that responded to 382 couldn’t make it here. Paul and Jonah discuss some board games with remarkably similar themes they played in the past few days. Paul also waits for his compensation for The Sims Freeplay.

The news of the week includes:

  • Microsoft discontinues Kinect for Windows
  • Microsoft says open source Windows is “definitely possible”
  • OnLive shuts down streaming games service, sells patents to Sony
  • Mario Maker gets release date

No Listener Feedback this week, so the Question of the Week remains the same: “What do you think the future is for old games?”
