With Halloween now behind us, and the end of the year firmly in sight, the boys sit down to chat all things Xbox in the XboxEra Podcast Episode 287!Tons to talk about this week, and thankfully, most of the conversation doesn't revolve around industry drama, but instead about the very thing we're all here for - fantastic video games. From Nick's discovery and love of Pumpkin Jack, his review of Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O World Stage and his review-in-progress for Double Dragon: Revive, Nick's been playing more video games than ever.Personally, I'm deep into my addiction story 'arc' with ARC Raiders, which has blown up on Steam and in the community. I also took a look at Simon the Sorcerer Origins, revisiting a staple of my gaming past. Jesse has been as busy as ever, working on reviews for Dead Static Drive and Voidtrain, which are polar opposites in terms of impressions. In Xbox news, we talk about Jez Corden's report on the next-generation Xbox, and Satya Nadella comes out and talks about it too. IGN had a great ID@Xbox showcase, and and as always, the community comes through with their latest thoughts and questions at the end of the show.XboxEra is a community-first, community funded publication.
