This particular episode becomes a little sleepy as one host actually falls asleep during recording. Guess which one. After last week’s episode only partially uploaded, the Gaming Flashback for Okami is actually an insert, too.
The news items include:
- It’s a big week for new game releases on Switch, PS4, Xbox One, and PC
- Lego Dimensions comes to an early end after two years
- Why Xbox One backward compatibility took so long
- Ex-BioWare says Anthem is an example of EA’s monetization plans

- Red Hot Chilli Peppers getting a guitar Hero game?
- Next Call of Duty will be Black Ops
- Bungie signs deal with Activision
- Nintendo to release Black Console
This weeks question of the week is this: Will gamer parents treat their kids differently in terms of what is acceptable in terms of video game selection, play time and other gaming related activities? Is our perspective that much different?
Episode 510: Red Dead SurpriseEpisode 510: Red Dead Surprise
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.
