Some Patches Required
Hello everybody, and welcome to Some Patches Required.

From interviews with AAA/indie devs to deep dives on timely topics, the duo hopes to entertain and educate you on this wild medium we all love.
Some Patches Required
Sony, Game Preservation, and The Taking of a Tremendous Duke

Cast your mind back to the halcyon days of one episode ago, when we spent more than an hour talking about wacky licensed video games with Aaron's brother. Fun times, right?
Now, pop your earbuds in and listen to us talk about the borderline catastrophe that was Sony's plan to blitz the online stores for the PS Vita, PS3, and PSP (all of which Aaron owns, none of which he regrets buying), and the threat that poses to the preservation of games both new and old. It may be a bit on the heavy side, but it did prompt Aaron to say something semi-insightful for what may be the first time in the glorious history of SPR.
Additional high points include a fleeting mention of the Oscars, yet another discussion about The Last of Us, a startling lack of cat noises, and Zak winning the game of grammar moments before revealing his catastrophic bathroom crimes.
Hey, what did you expect?
Also, a divide can surround something; Aaron is just a dumbo.
