This week’s episode is 50% longer as the first 20 minutes or so are devoted to the reaction to Jim Sterling’s explosive review of Hellblade and his subsequent recanting later that day. This week has no Gaming Flashback or Gaming History, but there are six news items to make up for it.
The items include:
- EA talks about Nintendo Switch support
- Rainbow Six: Siege “Operation Blood Orchid” update launches August 29
- Myth-inspired RTS Deadhold charges into Early Access later this month
- No Man’s Sky “Atlas Rises” update adds story content and “limited” online co-op
- EA says Star Wars: Battlefront “lacked long-term goals”
- Moons of Madness is Lovecraftian horror on Mars
Let us know what you think.
Sony’s been putting a lot of effort (read: money) into the PlayStation 3 product line with very little impact in the market. They’ve got this “10 year plan” but haven’t really executed a strong plan for their first two years of said plan. Sony’s plan seems to be “outlive the competition’s technology” while all of its competition stomps on their sales and market share with older and a bit “outdated” products.
