Flipping Tables

Matt of Bits & Pieces fame joins Mike and Lyons to report on GamesCom, the Oculus Rift, and the HTC Vive. Mike shares his delayed reactions to Fallout 4. Jibo is a robot 'part of the family' that sounds like a Portal turret. And Google becomes Alphabet then buys itself.

Mike gets Windows 10 installed after a convoluted process, Tesla shows off a creepy solid metal snake electric car charger, Lexus shows off a working hoverboard with serious limitations, and TripMode helps you conserve data on your mac when you're tethered to your phone. Also: will Google's latest attempt to improve the pace of Android updates work this time?

Is Uber lying or just providing an 'experience'? Also, Microsoft turns Solitaire into a freemium experience, ISPs make a stupid claim about the internet, Final Fantasy 7 remake rumors, and a discussion of interesting problem solving in game design. Train hats, anyone?

Flipping Tables is now available on the Amazon Echo so go command your robot slave to play the show! Steve Jobs gets yet another movie about his life. Google+ is no longer required to use Youtube. And video game tournaments like the DOTA International could win some lucky player millions of dollars!

Flic is the wireless smart button you didn't know you needed. Customers complain about Amazon's Prime Day. beme want to bring authenticity to social media. And Mike and Lyons are Getting Things Done.

Google Photos handles sharing in a very Google-y way. Watching people code is a new idea but not really. Self-driving cars are going to change all the things. And a short remembrance of beloved Nintendo President Satoru Iwata.

The Batman Arkham series is still worth getting giddy over. Thync is a wearable for managing your mood. Chicago plans to tax streaming services. And you make grandma sad, you monster.

The Pebble Time gets taken to task. Google cannot compete with Apple's rollouts geographically. The Batman Arkham series earns high praise. And ad blocking is coming to iOS in a big way but will it matter?

Conference burnout and fresh installs of OS X can't stop Flipping Tables! Lyons' Pebble Time finally arrives, IKEA charging furniture is on sale now, and in the war of web v. native maybe we all win.

E3 is officially here and it's fan service all the way down. Backwards compatibility on the Xbox One, The Last Guardian is finally being released, and Final Fantasy VII is getting the remake everyone apparently wants.
