Welcome to show 154

It’s hard to believe that our favorite Rocket Man, Leonard Nimoy , is gone.  Although he was the star of stage as well as screen his role as Spock inspired a generation of American astronauts and engineers.  He will always hold a special place in our heart.

This time out we talk about Borderlands2, Minecraft, and modding Minecraft to play Borderlands 2.  We also talk about the newest version of Borderlands the Pre-Sequel, and a bit about the newest downloadable content. In the second part of the show we talk about hopes and fears for the future of Virtual Reality – which isn’t far off.
