Episode 489: Late to the PartyEpisode 489: Late to the Party
This week’s episode is a little late due to a power outage. However, despite the lack of really interesting news, the crew still finds plenty to chat about.
This week’s news includes:
- Switch outsells entire lifetime of Wii U in Japan
- The Tomb Kings bring crazy new units and crafting to Total War: Warhammer 2
- State of Decay 2 is still on for a spring release
- Rebellion buys studio Radiant Worlds
The Question of the Week is, “What popular game did you play long after its initial release?”

The crew realize how prickly gamers are getting. Lootboxes may make them complain, but it won’t stop them from paying. Exclusive DLC? That seems to be a bridge too far.
The news includes:
- Modern Warfare fans are cancelling pre-orders over Spec Ops exclusivity
- PS4 cross-play features reportedly out of beta, now available to all developers
- French CS:GO players can preview loot box contents now, but still have to claim them
Let us know what you think.

This week is another bountiful podcast as the crew has a surprisingly long discussion about this week’s Gaming Flashback, Make Trax. The guys also discuss 1990’s kids shows like Reading Rainbow and Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego? The contest winner for a copy of Magicka is also revealed, as some magical books are discussed.
In the news:
- Rumor: Wii U will cost Nintendo $180 and retail for $300
- Online petition calls for end to Tera ‘censorship’ in EU
- Videogame-only Kickstarter alternative debuting at E3 2012
- NPD: 40% of freemium players pay for in-game upgrades
Interestingly enough, the day after the podcast was recorded, the gore slider issue was resolved.
We also have some great Reader Feedback, but no contest or question this week. Sorry, folks!
