Halo Campaign Evolved, Sony’s All-Digital Future, and Xbox’s Reset

A lot has happened in gaming since our last show, so we had plenty to catch up on. We talk about our early impressions of Halo Campaign Evolved, Xbox’s massive restructuring, and why Sony moving away from physical games feels like such a breaking point. Epos also shares his surprisingly positive experience with the new Steam Machine, while we get into game ownership, preservation, and why convenience matters more to us as we get older. Plus, we talk Monster Hunter, older consoles, YouTube’s continued evolution, and plenty more along the way.
