Star Wars Battlefront 2 loot boxes spark pay-to-win fears
Only main player will progress in Far Cry 5 story
Destiny 2’s getting rid of random perk rolls for loot and the response is divided

This week we’ve got the Microsoft Xbox 360 Kinect and we thought we’d do a quick review on a couple of the titles we picked up. We’ve dug up some history on the Game Com Handheld, comment on some community feedback and hit the news:

More MMORPGS using the free to play model
Microsoft convinced Kinect will sell better than awesome
Sony hopes Nintendo’s 3DS does well
Microsoft Kinect Selling out

This week’s question of the week, have you ever caved into the peer pressure, press and “sold out” signs to pickup a piece of hardware, software or other device?

This week the guys have gotten back to talking about games from the past, as this week the Gaming Flashback is 2008’s Braid, Jonathan Blow’s influential indie game, which was followed by The Witness, which was… less influential. The guys also keep drooling over Red Dead Redemption 2.

The news items include:

Forza Horizon devs recruit staff for unannounced RPG
Hollow Knight comes to PS4 and Xbox One on September 25
Rumor: Halo 5: Guardians coming to PC
Red Dead Redemption 2 leaks tease Battle Royale mode

Let us know what you think.

This week is a celebration of the 250th episode of the Videogame Roundtable, and Dan Quick is back for the special edition, joining fellow PolyCaster Scott Dirk. However, TJ Denzer was at the bowling alley, so he wasn’t available. There’s a lot of Cards Against Humanity and Town of Salem talk, as well as a lot of long-missed byplay between Dan and Jonah Falcon. Unfortunately, Paul Nowak couldn’t make it.

The news this week includes:

Bethesda working on a “bleeding-edge” RPG
Diablo II gets first official patch since 2011
Forza Motorsport 6: Apex won’t crossplay with Xbox One version
Nintendo explains why only the New 3DS plays SNES games
U.S. DoJ increases hostility towards Apple in latest court filing
