It’s episode 666, so naturally we spent a chunk of it assigning the Seven Deadly Sins to the gaming industry’s worst offenders. Unity took Greed for trying to charge developers retroactively per install (still unforgivable). AI took Gluttony. Microsoft took… also Gluttony, basically. Luke took Sloth personally and voluntarily. Chris Roberts, who has been making Star Citizen since 2012, has taken over a billion dollars, and still hasn’t released the game, nearly got Sloth but ended up on Pride, which honestly tracks more.
Xbox’s limited-edition green throwback console sold out in under a minute this week, and is now sitting on eBay for $3,300 AUD. Reasonable? You be the judge. Actually no, we’ll be the judge. That’s ridiculous.
Luke’s back from the actual flu (not the fake flu, the ‘couldn’t get an achievement for 5 days’ flu), and Matt’s walking around post-spinal surgery like a champ, albeit with a physiotherapist who apparently learned her craft from a Bond villain
The Academy Awards and the Razzies have ended and we discuss the results! Did Multiple Nerdgasm win big this year? You’ll have to listen to find out that the answer is no! The Shape of Water has lead to an increase in sales of fish sex toys. Who knew people wanted this? Guillermo knew. Mark Hamill wants to be Vesemir in The Witcher TV show Seems Disney didn’t come up with these poster designs solo! Sorry. Jon Favreau also gets to make a Star Wars thing J.
This week you’re the star of the show! As long as you’re one of the people who submitted a question for us. Hooray for you! And if you’re not one of those people there’s always next time. Literally next week, because it’s going to be a weekly thing now. Hooray again!
Multiple Nerdgasm is back for another week of deep conversations including space, game developers and celebrity dicks.
Luke and Matt have just flown back from PAX Australia and boy, are their arms tired. You know, from all the gaming and stuff… They can’t… fly. For those of you that attended the expo, this special episode will help you relive the glory days that were last weekend and for those who chose to stay home, maybe their words will inspire you to attend PAX next year.
