This week’s episode has a lot of tangential videogame news, but the discussions turn in interesting directions. No Gaming Flashback or Gaming History unfortunately.
The news includes:
- Microsoft announces Windows 10
- Ms Pac-Man joins the fight against breast cancer

- PS Vita firmware 3.30 launches soon, brings theme support
- The Sims 4 free content updates to include pools, Star Wars costumes
No Question of the Week either – just ask us anything.

If you’re wondering where the podcast has been, it’s been in technical hell. Twice the podcast was recorded each week, and both times there were serious technical issues. This time, we’ve got it right, and even have Paul dropping by to discuss his new book, “Gaymers: the Difference a ‘Y’ Makes: How (and Why) to Make Video Games LGBT Players Care About“. Actually, it’s mostly dominated by a discussion of an episode of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic.
Otherwise, the news items include:
- Kojima end of Konami employment
- French consumer advocate suing Valve over violating consumer rights
- Ken Levine states gamers prefer open world to linear narrative
The Question of the Week: “Who is your favorite superhero?”
Gaming Podcast 152: Down UnderGaming Podcast 152: Down Under
This week’s gaming podcast is slightly light on news because nobody wants to inform the market about gaming updates, they don’t want to damage the holiday sales season. We might not be eating Vegemite sandwiches but there is no doubt Men at Work would love this episode. We’re flashing back to California Games, we’re hitting up some gaming history on artist and graphic designer Paul Jaquays. We’re reading some listener comments while handling these news tidbits:
- Aussies Ask To Voice Option On R18+ Rating
- Wii Remote Colors
- Game Sales Down, Layoff Ax Begins Swinging
- Will EA Stand by Tiger?
This week’s question of the week, what do you think of Tiger Woods and his role with Electronic Arts? Will they keep him on the cover?
