We mull Snowpiercer and The Leftovers before talking about Shovel Knight, Watch Dogs, and the ethics of selling early access games at retail.

We wonder about the future of dogs in Valiant Hearts, admire the jumping of Shovel Knight, and try to wrap up a show before a doctor appointment.

Come for the talk about Shovel Knight, Mario Kart, and Watch Dogs, stay for the descent into madness over Sonic the Hedgehog and Tetsuya Nomura.

E3 2014 has come and gone. The world has changed. It's all about dogs now. You know, dogs, the Destiny alpha, concerns about No Man's Sky, and more.

The Wolf is having Internet problems, but that's not gonna stop me from pontificating about E3 for nearly an hour.

Besides waxing nostalgically about being away from the Internet for a week, we cover Kirby: Triple Deluxe, The Wolf Among Us, and the waves of news that hit in the last few days.

Before breaking for the weekend, Alex reveals how shockingly good the new Wolfenstein, we puzzle over Transistor's early hours, and thumb through the week's news.

Gaming podcasts don't get upset at transit systems enough. We're here to fix that, and maybe talk about YouTube possibly buying Twitch, and other news from the last few days.

Surprise! It's a Thursday show because I'm headed to New York for the weekend. Alex can finally tell us how Mario Kart the new Mario Kart is. Warning: some Walking Dead season one spoilers.

Why wait until Friday? Alex Navarro joins me to break down Microsoft's decision to drop Kinect as a requirement and changes to Xbox Live Gold.
