Jonah and TJ finally got to play Red Dead Redemption 2, and discuss how great it is and how disappointing it is at the same time. Great and disappointing can also describe the Gaming Flashback with 2008’s Mirror’s Edge, along with its awesome theme song, which Jonah is addicted to.

The news this week includes:

  • Nintendo recommits to “keep the business going” for 3DS
  • Capcom has “high expectations” for Devil May Cry 5 and Resident Evil 2
  • Pachter: Red Dead Redemption 2 coming to PC in April

Let us know if you’ve been playing Red Dead Redemption 2.

Rumor: Xbox 360’s New 60GB ModelRumor: Xbox 360’s New 60GB Model

The latest and greatest rumor on the Net brings back old rumors and spreads them with new rumors. The Xbox 360 will be getting a price drop on their 20GB model because they’re going to release a new 60GB model to replace it.

With all these Rock Band style games arriving, each with full song downloadable content (DLC), we’re going to need bigger disks! However, we don’t all want to invest in the 120GB Xbox 360.

Ars Technica says this information comes from a reliable source. Reliable source or common sense? The idea of dropping the Xbox 360 Pro down to a price that’s only USD $20.00 away from their lower model seems a bit rediculous if the original rumor is considered true. DLC is growing, disk capacity is becoming a bigger issue and finding manufacturers to build older 20GB disks is going to get tougher as months tick by.
