Episode 91 - Biggest Revelations From The Microsoft Xbox Leaks
Show Notes Chapter Markers

In what’s being cited as the biggest leak in the company’s history, Microsoft revealed a massive amount of information about forthcoming Xbox refreshes, next-gen systems, and more after uploading a series of unredacted documents to a court website as part of the ongoing Federal Trade Commission v. Microsoft case.  We discuss the headlines included in the leaks and wonder...is any of it REALLY news??

We'll also be talking about how series creator Ed Boon promises that the widely panned port of Mortal Kombat 1 on the Nintendo Switch will be fixed, how Unity has apologized for its install fee policy and says it "will be making changes" to it, and how the original Call of Duty Warzone is shutting down for good this week.

Finally, in News Rewind, we look at the New York Times article "The Gaming of Violence," published on April 30, 1999.
