The Cool Cats are BACK after a mini break, and we've got plenty to yap about!

This time, we're diving back into the MMO scene with our thoughts on WoW Forever and Aion 2, before tuning in to the newly revealed GTA 6 radio stations and what they could mean for the next big trip to Los Santos.

Connor takes the wheel for a couple of classic rants, tackling the questionable rise of AI art in gaming Facebook groups and somehow finding his way to Little House on the Prairie. We also discuss the mysterious rumors of the RTX 5090s seemingly ceasing to exist and what it could mean for Nvidia's and the future of PC gaming itself.

In a new segment Cameron pits Jelani and Connor against each other for a little MMO quiz, testing how well do they each know MMO's and their classes!

And, of course, we wrap things up the only way we know how: with some steamy Steam reviews. Full degenerate mode type reviews that are guaranteed to leave an impression!

This week on the Cool Cats Cast, we dive into the current state of gaming and ask the question: Where are all the original IPs? Why does it feel like everything these days is a remake, reboot, sequel, or rehashed idea? 

Connor comes out swinging with his hatred for One Piece and tries to explain why he struggles to get into certain anime.

Jelani also comes in with a rant about influencers constantly making people feel guilty for not living up to their “full potential” — and how that mindset can make you feel like your life is falling apart when it really isn’t your fault.  Cameron and Connor take it into a different direction but Jelani brings it right back and keeps it real.

And finally, we wrap things up the only way we know how: everyone’s favorite Steamy Steam reviews. These reviews get juicy and make you question what are people really playing these days

The Cool Cats are back, and this week we’re diving headfirst into the beautiful disaster that is the internet.

We kick things off with finance bros and influencers ripping Pokémon packs like there’s a stock market attached to every Charizard, while buying up huge amounts of product and leaving everyone else wondering, “Are we collecting cards anymore, or are we watching the world’s weirdest investment strategy?”

Then Connor goes on a full-blown rant about AI-generated pictures on dating profiles. Your parents aren't the only generation relying on AI art.

They get into the AI-generated Kingdom Hearts art that has the internet absolutely losing its mind. We break down the controversy, the reactions, the visuals, and the bigger question nobody seems to agree on: Do we even understand the story line of Kingdom Hearts anyways?

Ending it off with the steamy steam reviews, including some deeply thought out and maybe some WebMD made reviews. Tune in!

The Cool Cats are back for Episode 3! This week we're taking a trip down memory lane as we revisit some of our favorite gaming classics and discuss whether they still hold up today. We also dive into what we've been playing lately—and yes, there's plenty of Palworld talk.

On the news side, we break down the latest Assassin's Creed Resync layoffs, discuss Sony and PlayStation's continued shift away from physical media, and react to what the viewers of Digital Foundry have to say about the future of game ownership.

Of course, it wouldn't be a Cool Cats episode without Jelani going off on a tangent. This time, he connects the dots between a potential SpaceX share listing and what it could mean for our 401(k)s.

Ending if off with the recurring segment Steamy Steam Reviews where we read some of the funniest, weirdest, and most unhinged Steam reviews we can find. Whether they're brutally honest, completely ridiculous, or accidentally poetic, it's all fair game. Fun for the whole family... probably.

This episode of the Cool Cats Cast takes a wild ride through some of our favorite rabbit holes. We kick things off on the darker side with a few unforgettable Forensic Files cases before shifting gears into gaming, breaking down the Steam Machine prices, why Valve is flopping so hard.

From there, we dive into the different editions of GTA 6, discussing what's locked behind the premium versions and whether the extra content is actually worth the price. We also take a detour into the world of fintech, talking about how modern financial services are changing—and, in our opinion, hurting—the traditional banking experience.

As always, we wrap things up with everyone's favorite segment: hilariously unhinged Steam reviews, where the internet once again proves it can be both brilliant and completely unfiltered.

This week, we rip and tear into Doom: Dark Ages… and not in the good way.Slower, green goop hitting, and relentless pacing that left us more exhausted than excited, we unpack why the latest demon-slaying romp didn’t quite hit the mark. Then we drift into the eternal alpha that is Star Citizen — Jelani's cozy game, a staple in the Cool Cats Cast. Also get into Marvel Rival updates and how Star Wars Battlefront 2 is having a resurgence. Connor touches on his beloved Giant Bomb podcast and how they gained their independence.

Next up: Spending some time talking about our good friend Randy Pitchfork (yes, that Randy). He has decided to log on and stir the pot again — we break down the Twitter chaos and his questionable takes

Finally, we cool off with some Steamy Steam Reviews — the weird, the salty, and the oddly poetic (?) feedback from the depths of the user review section.

Grab your BFG, some popcorn, and maybe a flame shield — it’s gonna get spicy
