<p>In this episode we’re still talking about SimCity. We also discuss Thief, the Oculus Rift, and Lucasarts before we finally get around to answering some of your emails.</p>
<p><strong>00:30</strong> <em>What’s everyone playing?</em></p>
<p>Josh is playing <a href="http://www.crusaderkings.com/">Crusader Kings II</a>.</p>
<p>Chris is playing <a href="http://goingloudstudios.com/games/dlc-quest/" title="DLC Quest">DLC Quest</a>. But mostly he’s been working on <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=GJ2cSKBFBDQ">the latest Errant Signal</a>.</p>
<p>Rutskarn has just finished up BioShock Infinite.</p>
<p>Shamus is playing <a href="http://goingloudstudios.com/games/dlc-quest/" title="DLC Quest">DLC Quest</a>. <a href="http://www.thomaswasalone.com/">Thomas was Alone</a>, <a href="https://kerbalspaceprogram.com/">Kerbal Space Program</a>, <a href="http://www.battlefieldbadcompany2.com/agegate">Battlefield Bad Company 2</a>, and <a href="http://www.eurotrucksimulator2.com/">Euro Truck Simulator 2</a>.</p>
<p>We brought up the <a href="http://www.technobuffalo.com/2013/04/09/team-fortress-2-oculus-rift-gameplay/">Oculus Rift</a>, which is worth reading about. This is the next big technology I’m eager to try. I know VR headsets have failed in the past, but this one seems to be solving those long-standing usability problems.</p>
<p><strong>14:25</strong> The horrible SimCity news of the week: <a href="http://www.pcgamer.com/2013/04/02/simcity-dlc-nissan-leaf/">The Nissan Leaf Charging station DLC</a>. An advertisement, a broken cheat item, and another failure to simulate things.</p>
<p><strong>23:30</strong> <em>Thi4f, or Thief 4, or Thief 2014</em>, or whatever marketing is calling it this week.</p>
<p><strong>41:40</strong> <a href="http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2013/04/03/disney-closes-game-publisher-lucasarts.aspx">Lucasarts</a> is closed.</p>
<p><strong>51:30</strong> <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N1wUirNlR0U">MAIL TIME</a>!</p>
<p>We had many emails over the past few weeks, and now we’re finally answering a few.</p>
<p>EDIT: And here is <a href="http://www.chocolatehammer.org/?p=834" title="In a Hostile Country: The Saga of Cahmel">the link to Rutskarn’s Let’s Play Morrowind Part 1</a></p>
