  • Control – Our Review | For The Players – The PopCulturists’ PlayStation Podcast EP118
    It's The X-Files meets Twin Peaks with a metroidvania and Resident Evil feel.
    It's Control.
    The latest release from Remedy has come across Ryan's PlayStation, thanks to Reboot PR, and he simply had to chat about it with Josh.
    Control is an upcoming action-adventure video game developed by Remedy Entertainment and published by 505 Games. The game revolves around the Federal Bureau of Control (FBC), a secret U.S. government agency tasked with containing and studying phenomena which violate the laws of reality. As Jesse Faden, the Bureau's new Director, players explore the Oldest House – the FBC's paranormal New York headquarters – and utilize powerful abilities in order to defeat a deadly enemy known only as the Hiss, which has invaded and corrupted reality

  • Take Two Sends Private Investigators On Borderlands 3 Leaker | For The Players – The PopCulturists’ PlayStation Podcast EP117

    Leaks within the video games industry are pretty common practice.

    Many journos release hidden things all the time. Like Jason Schrier, he always has a bit of secret info in his hands.

    However when Borderlands YouTuber SupMatto continuously drops new leaks, information, and details Take Two got a little more involved.

    It has come to light that Take Two had allegedly sent Private Investigators to the YouTuber’s house to try determine how he is getting this information.

    Ryan and Josh discuss on the potential ethics, legality, and weirdness of this situation.

    Does Take Two have ground to do this?
    Is SupMatto in the wrong by pay-walling these details?
