The gang has a bit of fun this week with the new Transformers movie and video game. Ash plays Valiant Hearts: The Great War, and Matt sees the comedy, They Came Together. Also, Google IO, Aereo, and Games with Gold. Finally, we hear your thoughts on the growth potential of eSports in our NAQOTW.

Rated NA 159

Scott

Hi, I’m one of the founders of Nerd Appropriate and the Rated NA podcast. I like good and bad sci-fi films and tv, pho, and the retrofuture. I am primarily an Xbox gamer, but also do some PC and Wii U gaming as well. By day, I am a research scientist, mostly in topics related to human-computer interaction and user experience. Before all this, fellow NA co-founder Matt and I played music together in various bands. I also used to make "comedy" videos for my high school morning news program before there was a place to post them online. Favorite Star Wars character? Admiral Ackbar. Best Bond era? Timothy Dalton (Craig a close second). Game of all time? Maybe System Shock 2. Thanks for being a part of this labor of nerdy love with us.

Rated NA 105: A marvelous repartee on the virtues of the xbone

The gang is back at full strength again to talk about the newly announced Xbox One. We give our reactions to the press event, talk about the features of the system, and try to make some sense of the Internet response. In the NAQOTW, you tell us ONE thing you liked and ONE thing you didn’t like about the new system. “Give it a second… it’s going to space.”

    Matt, I think you described so much of what I find wrong with Watch Dogs. I’ve completely fallen out with it, I don’t even want to finish the game honestly. I had no investment in the story, and I needed at least some. I spent more time just running around being crazy (like Ash said) than the story, and I think I’ve played it out.

    And someday I’ll catch you guys for Titanfall…
