Jumping into news for the first half of this show, the gang covers; WoW's pressuring vanilla servers, Nintendo pushing the NX to 2017 and more breakdown of the now named Playstation NEO. Afterwards we talk about stuff we've been playing (that isn't Dark Souls 3)! N00b talks of being pleasantly surprised over the latest Hitman game, Thurb's struggles in Hyper Light & indie horror games, and lastly Cynic really liked Nioh and has been reading books inspired by Warhammer 4k!

There's blood - blood everywhere. If that sentence freaks you out, you may want to skip the first 20 mins of the show, because MAN does Noob have a story to tell. After this revelatory exposition we delve into a bit of news before a whole lot of what we've been playing. There have been some interesting changes to Rust, Hyper Light Drifter is cool, FFXV may have some problems, but most of all Dark Souls 3 is out (though we leave that to the very end of the recording). Enjoy!

Cynic and No0b are still eager to talk about Nintendo news but also how Cynic is making his own pen and paper game with friends, Thurb revists fun games of years past, and No0b brings new releases to the show! Stick around after the plugs because there is a lengthy post show "discussion" over Cynic's opinions of Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice (he... he didn't really like it).

HOT OFF THE PRESSES. In this special frankenstein-esque episode, we discuss a bunch of news coming out of GDC, only to be caught up by not one, but two breaking news items that happened pretty much over night at the time of recording. Tune in for a bunch of GDC/VR talk, Nintendo NX speculation and the latest big break from Patrick "Scoops" Klepek.

Thurbleton has to leave half way through this pre-GDC episode, so strap yourselves in for some weird stuff! This week we discuss the latest news from Microsoft, EA, Sony and more before moving on to our final deep delves into Fire Emblem and The Division. But don't worry, we find a way to talk about E3, Hentai and the future of interactivity along the way. 'Cos, you know, Video Games.

Holy cow, sorry for getting this up so late, but man I doubt this episode will disappoint. We hit a MESS of topics including a bunch of recent gaming news, the normal "what we've been playing" segment, hit up a movie discussion along the way before diving into not one, but TWO spoilercasts, one for Firewatch and another for XCOM 2. Don't worry though, the segments are telegraphed pretty clearly and the first 2 or so hours are spoiler free.
