So, thanks to an untimely computer breakdown, last week’s episode could not be run in a timely manner. So, this double-length episode features an off-the-cuff discussion of videogames with no notes, with last week’s episode tacked on. There’s not much editing in the episode, due to the fact Jonah has to rush off to Boston to attend PAX East over the weekend.
Last week’s “news” includes:
- Middle Earth: Shadow of War leaked then announced
- Microsoft announces Netflix-style gaming for the Xbox One
- Videogame industry lobbying to maintain “repair monopoly”
- Microsoft plans to bring mixed reality to the Xbox in 2018
All this and some Listener Feedback
Sony’s done it, they’ve announced a wireless keyboard adapter to plug onto the stock PlayStation 3 controller. This isn’t the first time we’ve heard of this, Microsoft pushed out a keyboard for their Xbox 360 controller last year to provide faster chat abilities and, overall, smooth the interface when needing to type.
