There are no news items in this podcast. Instead, it’s just post-E3 discussion. Everything is E3. What the crew liked, what the crew didn’t, and T.J.’s reports from doing the show floor. The episode is almost 2 hours long, so there was a lot to talk about.

Jordan Lund can’t make Episode 280, but fortunately, Paul S. Nowak makes his triumphant return, albeit pumped full of medication. Enjoy his drug-fueled babbling as he waxes poetic on the virtues of playing social networking games while high.
He was lucid enough to discuss the following news items with the gang, however:
- Cryptic calls for new MMO review system
- BioWare Mythic “can’t make all Ultima fans happy” but hope they “enjoy nostalgia”
- PS3 version of Black Ops 2 includes optional hi-res texture install
- Wii U gamepad won’t be sold separately at launch
Gaming Podcast is also running a new contest to win a free Steam code for the hotly anticipated XCOM: Enemy Unknown remake. All listeners have to do is answer the Question of the Week in the comments section, “What is your favorite game from the 1990’s?”

In Episode 552, there was no TJ. This time, Scott has to duck out early in the podcast, leaving a two man podcast again. It’s all good since the quality is still there. (Maybe not.) There’s also a Gaming Flashback: Burnout Paradise.
This week’s news includes:
- Anthem reportedly set for major overhaul as BioWare looks to reboot its troubled game
- Minecraft Dungeons will be supported long term with a mix of free updates and paid DLC
- Dragon Quest Builders 2 is coming to Steam
Let us know what you think.
