This week, the Nerds have been playing Mario Kart 8, Watch Dogs, and goofing around with STEAM’s new in-home streaming (freshly out of beta).

Plus - is the $60 dollar price point actually making our games WORSE? We discuss a fantastic article from gamesindustry.biz which explores AAA games, and the expectations of millions upon millions of game sales.

And Butterfly in the sky - Reading Rainbow is on it’s way back - thanks to Kickstarter.

That’s coming from the internet to your ears on this week’s Midwest Nerds Podcast!
