I’m preparing a mailbag episode for later this month, and I’d love to answer your questions! The episode will air on Patreon.com/PostGames on 8/28 and on the free podcast feed on 8/31.
Drop a text question in the comments!
Or, you can send a voice note to postgamesmailbag at gmail! Please review the following instructions before recording and sending an audio message. This will ensure solid audio quality and make it easy to record and send from your phone.
How to record a mailbag question:
Open the voice note app on your smartphone
Record a question that’s no longer than 60 seconds. Ideally, shorter.
Include your name, pronouns, and any professional title you’d like used on the show.
Please make sure the question is a question and not only a personal story.
If a listener has a notable scoop or pitch for the show, what is the preferred method of communication — if any — and how in-depth should it be?
Hey Chris, lately there's been a lot of discussion about the next console generation (PS6, etc.). But I feel like a lot of people aren't excited about it, both because of price but honestly also because it just doesn't seem necessary for the games people want to play. And then I think about consoles in the context of other tech (phones, TVs, etc.) which get upgrades basically every year. So my question is, why are video game consoles in a generation-by-generation cycle, and will consoles ever become similar to other tech and start getting constant incremental upgrades instead?
