Episode Details

Xbox Game Pass is getting price increases and a standard tier with no day-one releases, which leads us to a tangent about how Nintendo is about the only game maker who could possibly get away with this. Microsoft says plainly in a new ad that you don’t need an Xbox to play Xbox games. An indie game publisher notably explains how they prioritize developer health over profits. External translators hired for Nintendo projects bemoan lack of credit in almost every big title. Brad gives even more impressions on Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader and finds surprising comparisons with the Mass Effect series.
