Obsidian and inXile join Microsoft Studios

Unfortunately, Skype decided that since Jonah’s webcam was connected, he wanted to use the webcam’s mic instead of the actual mic Jonah uses, making it sound like he’s in the next room talking to the others. It’s unfortunate, since this was the 350th episode of the Videogame Roundtable and longtime co-host Paul Nowak took the time from his busy schedule to join in the landmark episode.

This week’s news includes:

Skybound Games will finish the final season of Telltale’s The Walking Dead
Star Citizen’s latest promise rakes in almost a million dollars
Blizzard denies Diablo: Reign of Terror is a BlizzCon leak
Microsoft looking to partner with new Japanese studios
Report: PS4 users are setting messages to private after discovering new bug that bricks consoles

July 25, 2018| Jonah Falcon| 0 Comment| 2:54 pm

This week was a hot time for Jonah — really hot time as Los Angeles was sweltering and the Arctic was literally on fire. However, that didn’t stop the crew from doing the podcast (albeit a day late), though the news was a bit thin again.

The news items for the week include:

The C64 Mini is coming to North America on October 9
Datamined logo offers more evidence Taiko Drum Master for Switch is coming West
Next Xbox will focus on “XCloud” game streaming
GOG: Classic console games “might be possible”

The Question of the Week: “What little known game did you love?”

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

June 27, 2018| Jonah Falcon| 0 Comment| 2:54 am

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
Life is Strange 2 Episode One release date revealed

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

Episode 505: 3 Hours Of E3Episode 505: 3 Hours Of E3

June 16, 2018| Jonah Falcon| 0 Comment| 8:36 pm

This week’s episode is three hours long — Jonah’s mic was moving in the first minute, but after that, it’s ok. There’s no news, just discussion of each of the press briefings that preceded E3, as well as some of the games that Jonah got hands-on time with. TJ is sad that he didn’t get to attend this year, while Scott is getting E3 swag.

Next week, back to news items!

February 4, 2018| Jonah Falcon| 0 Comment| 2:05 am

This week, TJ talks about how much he’s loving Dragon Ball Fighter Z, and how he enjoys using one character’s OP exploit to take down opponents with breathtaking quickness. Jonah brings up doing a special podcast, like Paul, Jordan and Jennifer did with Doctor Who, except with Star Trek this time.

All this and this week’s news, which includes:

Sega teams up with Heavy Rain lead designer’s new studio to publish “narrative-driven” game
Rainbow Six: Siege tweet suggests upcoming PS4 Pro & Xbox One X support
