Looking forward to the Scorpio stuff.
-
Let us hope that that exclusive graphics crap doesn't happen. That isn't really going to make users switch anyway. That's one of the reasons console players stick to consoles even through graphics have and always will be better on PC.
-
Agreed, will be interesting to see what happens.
-
Love the podcast, it's been great since you started and I'm glad to see you all back at it again.
One piece of feedback: Matt needs to get up on that mic, as he is often inaudible except at high volumes but then corrects when he repositions himself. Jez is solid in his volume but often anyone else is muted and hard to hear.
Keep up the great work! -
Thanks for the support, we'll try and fix the audio problems.
-
Hey Yenzer! Yeah as Jez mentioned, the audio issues will be fixed next week! It was caused by me getting a new mic and forgetting to turn down the gain, so I tried to fix it where I could in post (: Thanks for the feedback!
-
I think i will listen to this tonight instead of supporting that twitch stream that is going on from now on. look forward to listening to it as soon as my device downloads the latest cast.
-
huh?
-
Just me or do the windows central podcast stop at episode 21 in the standard WP10 podcast app?
-
There was something after? Just the video cast I believe. You have to subscribe to the XB1 separate in the podcast app if that's what you are using.
