Episode 271: Paul-less PodcastEpisode 271: Paul-less Podcast
This week’s Gaming Podcast lacks Paul S. Nowak, who had to bow out due to illness, but there’s still Jonah Falcon, Jordan Lund and Daniel Quick to keep the podcast lively. This week features yet another weird NES title, Wall Street Kid, and some friendly Paul-less banter between the trio.
This week’s news includes:
- Capcom: Street Fighter X Tekken DLC will never come to Xbox 360
- Vivendi finding few buyers for Activision-Blizzard
- Gearbox: “Wouldn’t be surprised” if more aggressive PC games start to appear
- Grand Theft Auto V will support planes and jets, won’t have beta test
Jonah also startles Dan and Jordan with a “secret topic” with the $99 console, the Ouya, which leads to the Question of the Week, “Would you buy a $99 Android-based console?”

This will be Hasbro’s first go at social networking, given their trying to beat out Scrabulous, it’s going to be a tough battle, let’s see how they do!
