The posting of Monday’s podcast has been delayed a day, sorry about that. This week is fairly long, and the Gaming History gets into the venerable Sega Dreamcast, which still has some developers making new games for it.
Otherwise, this week’s news items include:
- Assassin’s Creed series will have end, assures Ubisoft
- EverQuest Next gameplay revealed, accepting beta registration
- Blizzard confirms Project Titan overhaul, “unlikely to be subscription-based”
- EA claims freedom of speech in NCAA lawsuit appeal, court rejects it
- Region-based factions will be in The Crew
This week’s Question of the Week: “What makes you decide to preorder a game or console?”

If you’re wondering where the podcast has been, it’s been in technical hell. Twice the podcast was recorded each week, and both times there were serious technical issues. This time, we’ve got it right, and even have Paul dropping by to discuss his new book, “Gaymers: the Difference a ‘Y’ Makes: How (and Why) to Make Video Games LGBT Players Care About“. Actually, it’s mostly dominated by a discussion of an episode of My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic.
Otherwise, the news items include:
- Kojima end of Konami employment
- French consumer advocate suing Valve over violating consumer rights
- Ken Levine states gamers prefer open world to linear narrative
The Question of the Week: “Who is your favorite superhero?”
Episode 272: Whinny 8Episode 272: Whinny 8
This week’s Gaming Podcast deals with Jordan Lund discussing how much negative flak Windows 8 has been getting, Daniel Quick being his usual Canadian self, Paul Nowak returning triumphantly, and Jonah Falcon just taking infamy in stride. This week’s Gaming Flashback is the derided Super Pitfall! for the NES.
As far as the news:
- “Super-slim” PS3 will be a no-show at Gamescom
- UbiSoft claims lack of new consoles penalizes creativity
- Diablo III ‘God mode’ exploit for Wizard discovered
- EA: Nintendo “on track to become primarily a software company”
- Electronic Arts settles in Madden and NCAA monopoly suit
There is no Question of the Week – rather, the crew is waiting to hear your questions for them instead.
