We have a shorter show than normal today because we're in the process of getting ready for our trip to Las Vegas later this week, so today's show focuses on the most recent gaming headlines including the No Man's Sky subreddit that shut down due to its toxicity, Gears of War will be seeing a movie soon and the latest in E-sports news. Plus, the crew has a quick discussion about shiny Pokemon and whether keeping suspected hacked shiny's is ethical. A reminder Final Encounter Cast will be taking a break next week because we'll be in Las Vegas.

The reception surrounding the release of Patch 3.4 seems to be a resounding YES! Despite some odd outcomes in the realm of Raid Difficulty. Even Aniero has some positive things to say about the MSQ. The hosts each share thier own views of the patch and while everyone has some lamentations overall most of them are pretty -- oh, just go listen to the show! Plus Squadrons! Nika Cries and Juxta is...he’s just bad.

Headlines of today's episode includes a study that says young men would rather stay home then get real jobs, the Girl Scouts make Nika jealous and is No Man’s Sky deserving of a federal investigation?! And the big Discussion surrounds the old 1993 federal hearings that eventually led to the formation of the ESRB. How did that affect today's culture and is it possible that the future of VR could spur another incident like the Gaming Hearings of yore?

It’s Patch Day! Tune in to find out what all the hype is about and what's been added to Final Fantasy XIV. Then listen to your favorites hosts talk about...World of Warcraft?! The newest Legion expansion seems to have borrowed a lot of ideas and sentiments shared in recent Limit Break Radio episodes. Coincidence? And should Square-Enix be taking note? Tune in to find out.
