e073: Thunderous Rising? Only Windows 10 Can Tow The Line Between Love and Hate!



(Audio issues in this episode, for a couple of reasons; we salvaged what we could. Our apologies.)

0:00:00 - Preamble & Opening Banter
- PlayStation TV isn't dead, and in fact its compatibility list is growing for some reason.
- Carlos exposits on how his ass has been itching a lot lately.

0:06:03 - Timed Jumps & Fist Bumps & Rockin' Tech (Games & Tech)
- New WoW expansion announcement out of nowhere, and since we recorded this before learning it was WoW: Legion, we make some hilarious, somewhat accurate/somewhat not guesses.
- (0:14:40) Double jumping and why it's awesome. Again, we recorded this before learning Demon Hunter double jumping in WoW would be a thing.
- (0:28:45) Turn-based games aren't dead yet. Were they ever really in danger?
- (0:36:32) Fallout 4 will release without its mod kit.
- (0:40:14) Windows 10 is an awesome nightmare of benign malevolence?
- (0:46:38) Rising Thunder, Seth Killian's new fighting game! Carlos has very preliminary impressions. More info: https://twitter.com/risingthunder / http://risingthunder.com.

1:03:07 - We Watch Dem Movin' Pictures (TV & Film)
- Reality TV and pandering to the lowest common denominator. Is reality TV always bad?
- Killing good shows with promise after one season, and how capitalism works apparently.
- Adam Sandler. Hoo boy, Adam Sandler...
- RIP Rowdy Roddy Piper. :'(

1:30:31 - Mailbag & Corrections
- Voicemails from Meowth (http://twitter.com/meowth900).
- Carlos is unfortunate enough to need a primer on SAO 2 to answer one of the voicemails.
- Talk on terrible fanbases and which one is the worst.
- Meowth talks about an upcoming live D&D game she'll be involved in! Check it out on Sunday August 9, at 1 PM Pacific (4 PM Eastern), on http://twitch.tv/exfauxsure, with shoutouts to the Burning Barrel Podcast.
