Welcome back to Episode 46 of Boss Run! Housh here, and the absolute maddest week in gaming has officially wrapped up. "Not-E3" 2026 did not disappoint. We are drinking from a firehose today as we break down the entire summer showcase gauntlet—from PlayStation’s heavy hitters to Xbox dropping the hammer, alongside some massive hardware news out of Taipei.Here is what we are unpacking on this week's massive show:

💻 Computex & The Handheld Future: Nvidia absolutely stole the show at Computex with the official unveiling of their new RTX SPARK chips. We look at the architectural leap this Arm-based system-on-a-chip brings to the table and what it means for the next generation of ultra-powerful gaming laptops and Windows-native handhelds.

🔵 PlayStation State of Play: Sony came out swinging early in the week. We break down the brutal, claws-out gameplay reveal for Marvel's Wolverine (mark your calendars for September 15th!), the surprise announcement of God of War: Laufey focusing on Faye, and the high-flying return of Ace Combat 8. Plus, the Call of Duty community is losing its mind because Modern Warfare 4 is officially bringing back DMZ mode.

🏙️ Summer Game Fest Live: Geoff Keighley delivered some absolute fever dreams on Friday. We get our first real looks at the Resident Evil: Code Veronica Remake, a brand new Virtua Fighter, and the jaw-dropping new trailer for RGG Studio's Stranger Than Heaven. We also cover the announcements for Final Fantasy 7: Revelation and the upcoming Stellar Blade: Blood Rain DLC.

🟢 Xbox Games Showcase Dominance: Xbox might have won the weekend, and honestly, they had the best pre-show countdown music of the entire gauntlet. In a massive twist for the platform's strategy, they confirmed Gears of War: E-Day is staying a strict console exclusive. To top it off, Sega and Atlus fans are eating incredibly well with the official world premieres of Persona 6 and Crazy Taxi: World Tour (yes, Axel is back to "All I Want" by The Offspring!).
