It's an interesting episode this week as we go on some deep dives into news topics and what they may mean for the gaming industry while contrasting it against other industries. Of course, we just end up argueing about Battlefront vs COD anyway so it balances out in the end.

Hoorah! A normal episode! It feels like making up for lost time, but Dourin, Noob and I (cynic) sit down at the proverbial podcast table to talk about news and video games with plenty of tangents along the way. Just like old times. 

Run Time: 2:41:10

After his house flooded, Dourin couldn't make it this week so we can only post the addendum recording Thurbleton and I made, intended for the end of the full show. Let's all hope that an act of god doesn't stop us from getting something together next week!
