Episode 373: Pre-E3 Show 2019

TJ is getting ready to head to Los Angeles for E3 2019, while Jonah sits out for the first time since 2001. Otherwise, there's no Gaming Flashback. The news includes:
Shenmue 3 pushed back to November 19 release
Rebellion to show off Evil Genius 2, Sniper Elite VR, and mystery game at E3
We also take a long look at all of the E3 rumors. Let us know what you think.

Episode 372: Two Plus Hours

The previous week's episode had too many technical issues to post, so this week's episode overcompensates by being over two hours long. The Gaming Flashback this week is none other than 2009's Minecraft, which is still going strong well into 2019. This week's news includes:
Microsoft explains Xbox Game Pass for PC, selling games on Steam (from GameWatcher)
The Avengers game is being revealed at E3 2019
Super Mario Maker 2's lack of costumes and online matchmaking with friends upsets fans
Wolfenstein: Youngblood to feature ray-tracing technology
All this and Listener Feedback.

Episode 371: Stretching It

This podcast ran short, so to make sure it ran at least an hour, the guys ramble about the games that are coming soon. It's good padding, but still padding. Enjoy! This week's news includes:
World of Warcraft Classic is coming in August
Another Vampire: The Masquerade RPG is in development
Minecraft celebrates 10 years with anniversary map
Let us know what you think.

Episode 370: Riotous Development

After a long delay, this episode looks at some of the more disturbing stuff going on in the videogame industry -- and Minecraft. The Gaming Flashback comes back with Lucidity.
Riot Games employees walkout in protest
Claptrap actor accuses Randy Pitchford of physical assault
Microsoft teases new Minecraft AR game for mobile
Let us know what you think.

Episode 369: Even More Audio Issues

This podcast is plagued with audio issues, unfortunately, as it returns from a week's hiatus to check out the new games and controversies, as well as Gaming Flashback for one of the greatest superhero games of all time, Batman: Arkham Asylum. The news this week includes:
Microsoft unveils disc-less Xbox One S All-Digital Edition for $249
Western Final Fantasy X-2 requires the cart on Switch
Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order dev explains why it’s a single player game
Let us know what you think.

Episode 368: Short Ep

This week's episode is kind of short because there's really nothing big to discuss. There is news, however, which includes:
Wavesplitter to be blocked on PC and Xbox One in Destiny 2
Borderlands 3 cross-platform multiplayer "is something we're looking at closely" according to 2K
Enter the Gungeon adds dog petting after being called out on Twitter

Let us know what you think.

Episode 367: Epic Exclusive

There was a lot of shocking news in the past week -- unfortunately, Jonah was at PAX East, so last week's episode ended up not being published. But there's still more news this week. The news includes:
Borderlands 3 might be an Epic Store exclusive
Videogame news subreddit closes for 24 hours to protest bigotry
John and Brenda Romero working with Paradox on new strategy IP
Sony unveils PSN refund policy
Let us know what you think.

Episode 366: Muffled Audio

Cuphead is coming to the Nintendo Switch, with Xbox Live support coming
The Outer Worlds and Control will launch on the Epic Store, not Steam
Cadence of Hyrule coming this Spring to Switch
