This week's Super Joystiq Podcast doesn't need thumbsticks or touchpads to be the best thing ever.

Big releases may be scarce in the new year, but the industry is not on vacation with a number of big showings at the 2014 Consumer Electronics Show earlier this week. Ludwig, Dave, Jess, and Anthony convene to discuss the Steam Machines and Steam Controller on display at CES, and the latest Oculus Rift iteration. Some game talk is even on the slate with Ludwig's early impressions of Castlevania: Lord of Shadow 2.

We have another great giveaway this week. Listen-in and jump past the break for details on how to possibly snag a Gaems G190 Vanguard Personal Gaming Environment-- yes, "Gaems," and yes, "Personal Gaming Environment." It's a real thing!
