This week’s episode has some bad audio thanks to a quick replacement mic being used to record the episode, causing a hiss. This is probably the reason the show is short-ish, coming in well under an hour.
This week’s episode includes the following news:
- Miyazaki gives clear answers on the future of Dark Souls, Armored Core
- Sony exec criticizes Hello Games’ marketing for No Man’s Sky
- Blizzard is moving away from the ‘Battle.net’ name

And, of course, the Wii isn’t competition to Sony.
