Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo are all teaming up to fight back against the gambling aspect of Lootboxes, which makes the guys happy for sure, but some of the wording of their statements still gives them some concerns. After the recent mass shooting in a Walmart in El Paso, Walmart has decided to pull "violent game ads" from their stores. The guys of course have some thoughts on this, and all the recent talk about the role video games play in these horrible events. They also talk through the first game they played on every system, XBox promising more single player games, Sean getting the Platinum in Bloodstained, and a very big announcement for the channel!

It was a rough week for video game conventions, and the guys have A LOT of thoughts on them. First off, PAX West canceled the Sacred Symbols panel with no explanation after telling Colin Moriarty for weeks that they were good to go and to promote the appearance to all his fans. To say the least, this is unacceptable. The ESA and E3 are in hot water after a website vulnerability led to over 2,000 individuals having their personal addresses, phone numbers, etc. leaked. Again, this is unacceptable. Other topics include The Messenger DLC, Switch and PS4 hitting some lofty sales results, and the Modern Warfare Multiplayer Reveal.

We know about Ray Tracing, SSDs, and 8K support among other things, but what else will the next (final?) generation of home consoles offer?

The guys also run through their thoughts on beating Bloodstained, the Contra spiritual successor Blazing Chrome, Dr Mario World, and their continued adoration of Super Mario Maker 2.
