Xbox and PlayStation are going head-to-head this week as we head into the Holiday gift-giving season. This is nothing new. Gaming consoles have been battling for the attention of kids and fighting tooth-and-nail for parents’ wallets for decades! In this episode of the show we’ll talk about the new system launch, peer back through history at some notable video game system launches, and discuss some of our favorite launch titles of yesteryear.
