This week is plagued by the Mark of the Beast, but next week’s will be a giant landmark, too. No Gaming Flashback, but a lot of legal happenings in the past week.

The news includes:

USB-C charging ports will be required by law in the EU for most portable tech from 2024
NetherRealm’s next game won’t be revealed during Mortal Kombat anniversary events
Cyberpunk 2077 sequel is why there’s only one expansion, says dev
Nintendo has updated eShop rules on adult content, publisher says

Let us know what you think.

Nintendo’s new rules seem exceedingly strange when you consider Chaos;Head Noah apparently failed Steam’s standards and practices, but was immediately picked up for the Switch.

Steam has since reversed the decision, but still!

Episode 224: October Xmas DecorationsEpisode 224: October Xmas Decorations

This week, we are running an outtakes episode, part of it long conversations that were cut from previous episodes, while others are just bloopers.

In fact, the first thirty-five minutes or so of the outtakes is Jonah and Jordan discussing news items waiting for Paul to login that didn’t make the cut for the podcast. Other interesting bits is Jonah and Paul talking about pen and paper RPGs and how badly the 4th edition of Dungeons & Dragons stinks, and Paul and Jordan berating stores that put up their Christmas decorations a few months early.

Next week, we’ll have a regular podcast, but this week, enjoy the outtakes.
