#305: NuNews For February 25th
Friday Mar 01, 2019
Friday Mar 01, 2019
NuNews for the week of February 25th.
Since trying to become beer reviewers, we've had an overwhelming lack of feedback. Which clearly means everyone loves it and we shouldn't stop! This week we kick off talking about one of Kyle's favorites - Monteiths Sumer Ale. A sweeter beer that Lee tries very hard to say good things about...
In the news this week, we go over Lee's beloved game chart from our friends over at TrueAchievements.com, get super excited about Final Fantasty coming to Xbox in glorious 60FPS and speculate about Game Pass coming to the Switch. In fact, Game Pass looks like it could be coming to any internet connected device. Are you ready to play Skyrim on your smart fridge? Halo on your dishwasher? Cuphead on your phone? Actually, that would be a great fit...
For the new games this week, Kyle actually did some research! Can you believe it? Because we can't... From defending the universe in 8 Bit Invaders, to taking over the universe in Stellaris, we have the games you need to know about.
Kyle and Lee go over all this and more on this week's episode of Nu News!

#303 - GameFace! Rocket League Edition
Wednesday Feb 27, 2019
Wednesday Feb 27, 2019
GAMEFACE!
Remember our "What Have We Been Playing?" section? Or our "Games Played This Week"? Or as Lee put it "So what have you been playing Kyle?"
No? Ok, never mind! Onwards.
Strap in for this episode, as the entire Xboxcast have managed to find themselves addicted (or at least playing excessively) Rocket League! From Kyle driving into Lee, to Lee swearing at Kyle, and Simone yelling at everyone, much fun was had and we even have proof on Mixer! Simone is still struggling to satisfy the aliens in Stardew Valley (I thought this was a farming game?), Kyle and Lee did their first Destiny Nightfall together - which is a cause for celebration, and Lee has even played the indie game of the year - Celeste. What did he think about it? You'll just have to listen to find out.
All this and more on this episode of GameFace!

Welcome to Nu News - a new series from The Xboxcast.
Nu News show cases all the Xbox news you need to know about for the week past. That covers the News part of Nu News, so whats this magical Nu? Thats for all the Nu games coming out (or have come out) for the week! And together we have Nu News!
This week we want to clothe ourselves in Xbox Onesies, we're sad about at least one game leaving Xbox Game Pass, but manage to console ourselves with a few new games coming to Xbox Game Pass! Final Fantasy IX has arrived on Xbox & Windows 10 and Crackdown 3 gives everyone a brand new bonus pack for free. Daddy Duck says "Quack! Quack!"
On the releases, we have a small game, you may have heard of - Anthem! Be sure to tune into a future episode of GameFace! to hear Lee talk all about it... Looks like this could very well be the new Destiny.
Kyle and Lee go over all this and more on this week's episode of Nu News!

With 25 million players in the first week and being the most watched on Twitch, it looks like the sun might be setting on Fortnite... Old games are new again with Icewind Dale, Baldur's Gate, Planetscape: Torment and other classic RPGs coming to Xbox. Activision earns a record profit and celebrates by firing close to 800 people.
We have also decided to be beer critics. For the reasons that we have. It might not be such a good idea...

GAMEFACE!

Remember our "What Have We Been Playing?" section? Or our "Games Played This Week"? Or as Lee put it "So what have you been playing Kyle?"
No? Ok, never mind! Onwards.
GameFace is all about the games we have been playing this week, including the now infamous Anthem VIP Demo. Since its our first GameFace of the year, we have a lot to cover - all the games of December and Janurary from Kyle, Lee and Simone.
Kyle got sucked into Mass Effect: Andromeda, Lee decided summer was a great time for not one, but two, football games and Simone has one of the best Final Fantasty XV stories we've ever heard. All this and more in this episode of GameFace!
