We’ll be doing five episodes about some of the various techniques games use, and then a wrap up episode to finish off! It’s a new format for us to try a multi part series, but we hope you enjoy it!In this episode, we focus on preventing a player from constantly repeating an action or strategy without altering it.

What's up, gamers? RDGH has finally reached its fortieth episode, and with it comes a new member of the crew! Matt "Mario" Fernandez joins Garri Bagdasarov and host Glenn Gordon this week for RDGH's latest landmark. Second Life, the virtual world that was really big for awhile but since slipped into relative obscurity, is planning to make a comeback of sorts. Developer Linden Labs is planning a new virtual world like SL, built with today's technology in mind, including Oculus Rift. Some Xbox gamers have been doing something naughty for the holidays in the face of PlayStation 4's exclusive DLC planned for Destiny's first expansion pack, The Dark Below. The crew discusses why it's such a bad idea to demand refunds from Microsoft just because the other console is getting some DLC. PlayStation has offered its first bit of evidence that it plans to buff the PlayStation Network in the form of a survey directly comparing PSN and PS Plus to Xbox Live and Xbox Live Gold. What in particular do you dislike about PlayStation Network? PlayStation also published a list of games to expect at its PlayStation Experience event in December. It's not a complete list, but it's fun to know what to expect. DRIVECLUB also offers a bit of news (sort of) from Shuhei Yoshida. The crew discusses how long it could be before PlayStation's darling racer will be running in full force, and whether or not it can come back from what has been the rockiest launch in the generation so far. Finally, a price drop for the holidays makes the Xbox One quite a good buy--cheaper than the PlayStation 4. How could that affect PlayStation's nine-month streak? This week's opening theme is a remix of the opening theme of Super Smash Brothers: Brawl, done by Arctic. Download the full song for free on his SoundCloud, ArcticOfficial, and remember to subscribe to him there and on his YouTube Channel (Arctic) for more amazing music. The ending this week is Hope Rising, a remix of Destiny's ending theme, Hope. It was made by Jillian Aversa and zircon from Overclocked Remix. To download this and many other great video game remixes in full, for free, head straight to OCremix.org. All this and much more comprises the fortieth episode of the Racial Diversity Gaming Hour. Join the discussion on Twitter @TheRDGH. Gamers, don't forget to forever shun discrimination between gaming platforms. In other words, don't be a racist.
See that can? Episode 53 is in it! In this episode you'll find, DrFinkelstein, Ninsage and newcomer, TheOldManFromZelda discussing all sorts of topics! The guys go through the games they're playing which includes Pikmin 3, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Earthbound, and more. There's also a small discussion regarding the late Hiroshi Yamauchi, Nintendo's former President. The gang discusses what Wii Fit U and Wii Sports Club means to them and finally dives into the interesting topic of whether or not changing a genre within a franchise can freshen things up. Do the guys think it's a good idea or a stinky one? Listen to find out. Plus, there's a couple unique game ideas that are a must-listen... /oversell? As per usual, the theme music comes from Negative World's owner, Zero. The interlude music is from Super Smash Brothers Brawl but specifically the Earthbound tunes in honor of that being a game TheOldManFromZelda has been tackling! Please comment on the topics, the podcast, the guests, hosts, etc. on Negative World! You can also reach us through Facebook or Twitter.
