This week’s episode has only two official news items, but there’s a lot to discuss that didn’t quite make the list, including Sony’s controversial plan to update the fan speed on the fly by taking data from consoles already purchased, to the beautiful Ori Collector’s Edition bundle. This week’s Gaming Flashback: The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.

The news includes:

Phasmophobia updates will make ghosts smarter and less predictable
2K under fire for adding unskippable in-game ads to the full-price NBA 2K21 a month after release

Episode 506: E3 Swag and Sony SagEpisode 506: E3 Swag and Sony Sag

This episode follows the three hour long E3 episode, but there was so much E3 to talk about, a lot of the show spilled over into this show, including the crew talking about the swag Jonah sent to them, and Sony’s “winning” of E3 in terms of media attention. There was going to be a Gaming History, but the episode ran long and they weren’t going to have a two hour podcast after a three hour one.

The news of the week includes:

Microsoft and Nintendo troll Sony over crossplay
Bethesda lawsuit says Westworld game stole Fallout Shelter code
Microsoft and Razer are working on Xbox keyboard and mouse support
Nintendo Switch could get its own new Monster Hunter games

There was some Listener Feedback to last week’s episode, too.
