Episode 334: Moo Deng's Favorite Podcast

Sony really does not have a gamer first mentality and if you think they do, stop drinking the Kool-Aid.

Plus, Lionsgate faces another flop, but their is light on the horizon, DC seems to be seeing what sticks, and Hollywood loses some greats in the span of a week.

Also, gaming rumors run rampant this week, and they touch all facets of the industry. Meanwhile, consolidation hits a arm of the gaming biz no one expected, IGN gobbles up Eurogame, gamesindustry.biz and more, plus EA SPORTS College Football is here and has a release date.
