The Xbox Two Podcast Rand & Jez

Join Rand, Colt Eastwood, and Lord Cognito to discuss one of the biggest weeks of Xbox news so far this year! JEZ sure picked a good week for a vacation huh?
(Timestamps will come a bit later cuz it's super hard uploading and formatting the show on my phone. If you need them sooner they're up on Rand's YouTube!)

Rock out with Jez and Rand on another XB2 podcast. This week we talk about Xbox's big sales surge, the massive Unity industry drama, PlayStation State of Play and Nintendo's latest direct, and much more.
