Episode 430: Audio IssuesEpisode 430: Audio Issues

This episode has some audio issues due to circumstances requiring Jonah to tape from outside in the NYC streets. Otherwise, this week’s news is Poke-mazing as some major issues hit the video game world this past week.

The news includes:

Valve’s Counter-Strike illegal gambling controversy continues
Red Dead Redemption sales jump 6000% after Xbox One backwards compatibility announcement
Pokémon Go raises security concerns among Google users

This is the contest’s last week. The Question of the Week is “How much is too much data to share with a game company?”

Episode 539: Two Plus HoursEpisode 539: Two Plus Hours

The previous week’s episode had too many technical issues to post, so this week’s episode overcompensates by being over two hours long. The Gaming Flashback this week is none other than 2009’s Minecraft, which is still going strong well into 2019.

This week’s news includes:

Microsoft explains Xbox Game Pass for PC, selling games on Steam (from GameWatcher)
The Avengers game is being revealed at E3 2019
Super Mario Maker 2‘s lack of costumes and online matchmaking with friends upsets fans
Wolfenstein: Youngblood to feature ray-tracing technology

All this and Listener Feedback.

There was a lot of shocking news in the past week — unfortunately, Jonah was at PAX East, so last week’s episode ended up not being published. But there’s still more news this week.
