Super Joystiq Podcast 075: The Xbox One launch

By Jonathan Downin

This week's Super Joystiq Podcast demands to be pinned to your favorites.

We are now firmly in next-gen territory. The PlayStation 4 and Xbox One are now available, and Ludwig, Richard and Earnest are here to fill in the final impressions of Microsoft's box at launch. Get ready for another in-depth discussion of the Xbox One's operating system, controller and TV integration – actual video games even get some time near the end!

Miss the last deep dives on the new consoles? Check out last week's episode all about the PlayStation 4, and yesterday's special Xbox 360 Fancast reunion covering the Xbox One. Now excuse us while we attempt to recuperate after a crazy couple of weeks.
