Mashcast #37: Nextbox Rumorpaluza

January 27, 2012

The games media is so excited for the next XBox that they are reporting speculation as fact. Other than that Hackers are hacking PunkBuster, Zynga is copying other developers, DRM is a waste of money, and Microsoft may be giving MS points the axe.

    Really good mashcast guys. I especially enjoyed the nextbox rumor paluza portion. Really good discussion. It really is disappointing news that microsoft would choose to “lay down” in the next generation if these rumors are true. This year will definitely be interesting. Keep up the good work.
