The episode discusses the closure of Bluepoint Games, major changes at Xbox, and various game demos from Steam Next Fest.
We may not have won gold at the Winter Olympics this time but we have to podcast anyway! We continue covering the situation happening over the closure of Bluepoint Games at PlayStation AND the very big shakes ups happening at Xbox. We also chat about a whole slew of demos coming out of Steam Next Fest like Denshattack, Vampire Crawlers, Australia Did It, and the Sledding Game. Grubb also continues to talk about the SuperStation and shows off the Sinden Lightgun. We also get to your emails, superchats, and discuss animal biology.
