This week’s episode has no news, despite the beginning of 2019 having some earth-shattering news items, which will be discussed next week, probably.

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:

July 12, 2012| Jonah Falcon| 0 Comment| 7:07 pm

This week is the battiest episode Gaming Podcast has ever done, and it’s not just because the crew argue over the first news item more emotionally than usual, but because it’s full of Batman. Lots of Batman. Plenty of Batman. In addition, the winners of the Spec Ops: The Line contest were also picked.

The news items this week include:

Square Enix exec says long console lifespans “biggest mistake”
No fee to be charged for connecting to Wii U network
Next Rocksteady Batman game will feature Silver Age Bats
Michael Fassbender pegged to star in Assassin’s Creed flick

All that and the question of the week, “Which Batman would you most like to see a game made from?”

For those of you good at math, you might notice that the TD Gaming Podcast is one episode away from a special number. While we have a surprise in store for loyal listeners, there’s still this week’s news to discuss. For starters, the classic Silent Hill 2 is the subject of the Gaming Flashback, even though none of the podcasters have gotten a chance to actually play it.

There’s also some interesting news to discuss, including:

Christian group accuses The Old Republic of “warping kids” with pro-gay message
Rumor: Next Harmonix project being released on XBLA, PSN, and Facebook
EA Sports: SSX will bring extreme sports videogames back to prominence
Xbox 720 rumors springing up like wildfire
PS Vita continues to struggle in Japan
SNK brings Neo*Geo back as a handheld

There’s plenty of Reader Feedback, but there’s no Question of the Week, because there’s a special episode coming up. Ooooh, what could it possibly be?
