E3 2015 has come and gone. We talk about the games we saw, the games we played, and the crazy experiences we had in Los Angeles.

E3 2015 is next week. We talk up what we hope to see at the show, what games we're looking to play, and more!

The Windows 10 release date announcement has been made - July 29th. We talk up the benefits of the OS, if you should upgrade, and what is in store for PC users.

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt has been launched to the public - however, the final product looks different from the visuals we saw back in 2013. Why do developers show off these "target render" videos at trade events, when there's a chance the final game can look nothing like this? Is this disingenuous to the fans?

What the hell is going on at Konami? Are they moving entirely to mobile development in a bid for quick cash? Are they abandoning their fans, and the creators which made their games worldwide icons? What's going on with Hideo Kojima, and why are they making a real attempt to stop discussion of the allegations behind the creator and his studio?

This week's topic is a multi-faceted one. The Killing Floor 2 developers have put out an EULA for their buyers to agree to which enables them to remove your ownership of the game, if you partake in "cyber bullying." At what point does free speech begin and end? We also talk about this issue in the world of gaming and culture at large, as both private and public institutions are seemingly kowtowing to the outrage police.

Is Nintendo behind the times? We talk about their recent Nintendo Direct, its content, the games, and of course - their Youtube/Let's Player streaming policies. The Kyoto-based company is certainly responsible for many great achievements in the gaming industry, but have they stopped raising the bar in comparison to their competitors?

Are all the Japanese visionaries being pushed out of the companies they made their reputation under? What is the cause of this? Is it rigid corporate structure, traditionalism, the battling of egos, or something unforeseen? We also delve into the seeming lack of outrage for games like Senran Kagura 2 and Onechanbara Z2: Chaos coming west, in the mainstream gaming press.

GDC 2015. How was the show? Was it filled with spiteful, exclusionary, hipsters like the internet at large wants you to believe? Our editor-in-chief, Brandon, spills the beans.

This week, we go over the recent developments here at Niche Gamer, and what our EIC, Brandon, has been seeing already at the Game Developer's Conference in San Francisco.
