This week’s episode didn’t initially have a Gaming Flashback, but the crew accidentally started one with 2010’s Red Dead Redemption, which shouldn’t be a flashback since it fails the “10 Year Rule”, but it was so fun to talk about, it became one. They also found some interesting stuff in a thin-news week, which is the usual for Summer.

The news includes:

Valve adds temporary fix for fake item scams on Steam
Halo devs not working on Battle Royale mode for Infinite
Nintendo Switch sales near 20m, down slightly on last year
Playground Games staffs up for the rumored Fable reboot

Let us know what you think.
