Earlier this week, the unthinkable happened: Xbox acquired Activision Blizzard for almost $70 billion dollars!  Overwatch, Diablo, Warcraft, Call Of Duty, StarCraft, Tony Hawk, Candy Crush, and others will become Xbox exclusives and their developers will be added to the Xbox first part stable.  We share this mind blowing history in the making for the video game industry and pose speculative questions as to what this means for Xbox, how Sony will react, will certain games be available on multi-platforms, whether or not other big publishers like EA Games, Take-Two Interactive, or Ubisoft will soon be up for grabs and many more! After listening to the episode, we’d love to hear from you! Post your comments below detailing your experiences with the topic listed above or leave us feedback on what you thought of the show.

Joygasm Podcast Ep. 69: Avengers Infinity War REVIEW (Spoiler Alert)

THX revolutionized how we experience movies today.  In episode 85, we examine the origin story of how George Lucas sought to create a standard that would be adopted by movie theaters to provide the very best in picture & audio quality, how Dr. Andy Moorer came up with the famous THX Deep Note sound, and our fond memories of what THX means to us as well as the lasting impact each of the animations had.  The audience is listening.  Our THX discussion begins @32:30 in the program.
