This week's episode covers a wide variety of topics, with no set news list save talking about Nintendo Direct's oddly uninspiring conference. There's no news list, so feel free to discuss what you found interesting or frustrating about Nintendo's stream or anything else mentioned in the podcast.
1 hr 6 min - Episode 434: Street Fightin'

1 hr 35 min - Episode 433: It's Number 600

1 hr 12 min - Episode 432: Remember Roogoo?
This episode is chock full of obscure games. Did you ever hear of the MMO Ever, Jane? No? Well, this week's Gaming Podcast features Roogoo, a game that was delisted from Xbox Live Arcade a year after it was released and is available on Steam for 99 cents. The news includes:
- Jane Austen's MMO for socialites shuts down

1 hr 9 min - Episode 431: Welcome to 2021
This is the first podcast of 2021! It was also recorded a day before people decided to invade the US Capitol. How weird is that, hearing us blissfully unaware of insurrectionists who thought they could terrorize the US Senate? Anyway, this week's news includes:
- Minecraft Earth is closing in June
- Bethesda tweets about Elder Scrolls
- Hitman 3 will launch with trilogy-wide optimizations
Let us know what you think at the official comment site.
1 hr 4 min - Episode 430: Demon's Xmas
2020 is coming to a close, and the crew talk about the absolute shitshow that Cyberpunk 2077 has been in the past few weeks. The Gaming Flashback this week is Demon's Souls, which is a game that T.J. loves and hates. They also discuss how the PlayStation 5 is in trouble. This week's news items include:
- Cyberpunk 2077 devs reportedly angry with management about unrealistic deadlines
- Report finds PS5 scalpers are ‘threatening long-term health of the console’
- Report: No More Heroes 1 and 2 are coming to PC
Let us know what you think.
59 min - Episode 429: More Sound Problems
The sound problems continue, while Jonah complains about not being able to live stream Dragon Quest XI; this issue is something that's frustrated PlayStation, PC and Switch gamers for the past few years, and there doesn't seem to be a reason why the restrictions are there.
Otherwise, the news of the week includes:
- Mass Effect and Dragon Age leads leave BioWare
- Halo Infinite now planned for a Fall 2021 release
- Square Enix delists original Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age as S version comes out
