Episode 147 - Activision Layoffs and New Nintendo Games Announced

This week, Activision announced over 800 jobs were being cut during their quarterly earnings call. We talk about the decision, as well as the outrage from some of the gaming community and the reality that our favorite hobby is also a huge industry where financial results often come first for publishers. In other news, the DICE awards were this week, and God of War did incredibly well again. We discuss that and some of the other winners from the awards. Also, Nintendo had another direct this week where they announced a lot of games coming to the Switch. Some new and some are remakes, but we discuss the biggest announcements here. Finally, Sony's Shawn Layden spoke this week about both the decision for PlayStation to not be at E3 2019 and the possibility that we will be looking at a time where you can play all games regardless of which console you own in the future. We also detail all the newest releases, and answer community questions - including new voice mail questions -  in our Fan Mail segment!
