Welcome to another episode of Throwdown Your Questions. This is the show which is dictated by you, our loyal followers. We answer any and all Video Game, Pop Culture and Tech related questions on this podcast.
On this week’s show we answer a range of questions including: What games we think have been overhyped this past year, if we’re looking forward to the new Gotham TV series, our thoughts on Microsoft’s failures this generation, what Nintendo’s next “gimmick” will be, and what our favorite anime movie and series are. We also talk about some of the Tokyo Game Show related news items that have come out since Throwdown Ep. 03.
In addition, the top of the show deals with the latest GamerGate situation where people are being banned from the Mighty No. 9 forums if they supported the cause in any way. We discuss whether you should support a product if you have ideological differences with its creator which are radically different than yours. Do you ignore what the creator’s beliefs and just focus on their work or do you discontinue supporting them?
This week I was joined by Emilio Lopez, Brian Munjoma, and Brett Murdock.
Thanks as always to Shawn Daley for our awesome intro and outro music.

Rachael Murdock, our producer, has been diagnosed with stage 2B breast cancer. She is currently undergoing chemotherapy. She created an online journal on Tumblr to give people updates about her condition. There, you can read her story and if you feel inclined, you can donate. Remember that every bit counts but if you can’t donate, words of encouragement can mean just as much.
