Episode 209 - ShaderGate is Overblown

Brad and a gauzed-mouth Micah go it alone this week to discuss a massive week in news. We give you our impressions of Everybody's Golf and Black Manta in Injustice 2. We offer our takes on the PewDiePie controversy and the reaction from Sean Vanaman that arose and whether or not DMCA takedowns are the way to go. Micah gives his thoughts on the South Park: The Fractured but Whole race difficulty news, we talk Nintendo's frustrating explanation for NES Classic shortages, and the hypocracy that some folks may exhibit when buying an early access game. We reserve the last half hour for Destiny 2 talk including our impressions 20 hours in, the news for Curse of Osiris, and our thoughts on the two controversies surrounding the game in its first week on the market.
