Listened to the first half so far and appreciate the crash course on the Facebook and ocular news. I had no I idea VR was possible so close to a reality.
Also I agree with your frustration around attempting to pick up a new game online. With me it's generally FPS and it takes me time to learn a new one but people absolutely nail you for it and make you feel like crap. That's why I like the small amount of Titanfall I played. With the AI combatants in the multiplayer it lets someone of my skill level feel like I am not just there for target practice.

Another great episode.
I liked this one even more than the first one, mostly because i just bought Infamous Second Son(along with a PS4)and i really enjoyed hearing you guys talk about it. I've only just played for a couple of hours but i'm really enjoying it even though i already have some of the same complaints that you guys had(don't like the controller shaking or whatever its called, never really liked the morality choices and so far i like Cole from the previous games more than Delsin)but the first two also weren't perfect and i loved to play those games.And the fact that it looks gorgeous and it really shows what the PS4 can do doesn't hurt either.
Keep up the good work guys!

Very cool to hear mentions of both Awesomenauts and Hearthstone--the games I've actually been playing this week! I play Awesomenauts on the PC, and it's definitely a ton of fun. I think it's a bit better on the PC, but I can understand people not liking the keyboard and mouse interface as much. In general, it's a very fun, very easy MOBA to get into.

Thanks for answering my question as well. Was glad to here the issues around the Xbox that everyone was concerned about were nixed. In light of that news I'll probably be going with an Xbox 1. Probably won't be till the fall now. I don't play much of any video games in the summer months.

Gear up for the fall before the wave of big games hit. I don't think you can go wrong with either system. I prefer PS4, but the Xbox has it's good points as well. Be sure to let us know how you're enjoying it when you get it

Be sure to let us know how you're enjoying it when you get it Yeah all of my friends are Xbox users so it makes sense. I had just been worried about some of the issues I had asked about but you guys put those concerns to rest. But who knows things could change over the next few months. I also really hope Xbox makes a version with out the kinect included. That thing is useless and I have no desire to have one. Got a 360 one for Christmas 3 years ago and used it for all of like 10 minutes. I really hope they feel the pressure to drop them from the bundles as time moves on.

Hearthstone is so addicting... Way too addicting for me.
