After their return from the chaos of Gamescom 2013 Daan Koopman and Gary sit down with James to discuss the value of video games consumer shows and expos. Do we need these consumer and industry events? Is there a conflict of interest? What is the impact of the video game bloggers and youtube journalism on the business events? Are these actually poor consumer shows? What is the future for Gamescom?

James returns to the news chair to discuss the latest gaming headlines with Neil and Mij. The team talks about the design and target audience of Nintendo's surprise new handheld the 2DS and celebrate the death of Microsoft Points. Meanwhile, Bethesa announces it is trying to negotiate with Microsoft about its Xbox Live Gold paywall ahead of the launch of The Elder Scrolls Online, and a new survey finds that 27 per cent of parents would let their children play Grand Theft Auto V. Plus, a shocking revelation from Neil about video gaming's most notorious movie director. All this and more on this week's GameBurst News.
