This week, the gang discuss the provocative article by Forbes about Microsoft ignoring Sony in favor of combating Google and Amazon in the cloud space — and how Sony is renting Microsoft’s servers. No Gaming Flashback this week, though.

The news includes:

Microsoft: Amazon and Google are ‘the main competitors going forward’
Stardew Valley creator is working on two new games
Capcom removes Denuvo DRM from Devil May Cry 5

Question of the Week: “What’s your favorite videogame trailer or advertisement?”

One again, the episode gets a little political as it deals with the GamerGate controversy again. No Gaming Flashback or Gaming History, but plenty of annoyed podcasters. As a side note, there will be no podcast for the next two weeks as Paul will be on a trip. However, there will be a new podcaster when the show starts up again.

This week’s news includes:

Sarkeesian cancels Utah State presentation following threats of shooting
Former GamerGate member explains his departure
Unreal, BioShock dev Digital Extremes sold to Chinese companies
Games driving “nearly all” Google Play’s revenue growth in US
Mobile spending driven by 35-44-year-olds

All this plus Listener Feedback.

This weekend’s episode is two hours long, but due to some software recording issues, the audio sounds like it was recorded from the desktop. However, there’s a ton of discussion of news from around the industry, not just the two news items listed below. In addition, this week’s Gaming Flashback is Alan Wake, which was actually one of the news items back in Episode 252: “Alan Wake on PC because Remedy ‘a nagging little kid’ to Microsoft”.

This week’s news includes:

Xbox hedgehog picture kicks up Sega purchase rumors again
Super Gore Nest Master Level arrives in DOOM Eternal update

Let us know what you think.

Unfortunately, there’s no Donald Trump in this podcast – you’ll have to wait for an outtakes episode to listen to THAT discussion. However, there’s plenty of news culled from the past two weeks to enjoy.
