Topics include:

  • The design differences between Lure of the Temptress, Beneath a Steel Sky & Broken Sword
  • Balancing PC minimum spec and recommended levels in development of games
  • Sony PlayStation 5 Pro details leaked splitting the PS5 target specs
  • Triple AAA titles and layoffs in the industry
  • Netflix, Disney Plus etc and how we are cancelling subscriptions due to raising prices
  • The needless pain of grinding in a game to progress
  • Match 3 games and the lightning energy nonsense
  • Apple EU App Stores

  • James’ article on Pixel Refresh, CRT TV for Retro Gaming – The Beauty, Buying, Repair & Despair

  • Apple Music for lossless, even on Android
  • Where is Spotify HiFi lossless audio??? Literally years since the original announcement

  • NOTE: Tony or I lost connection at the very end, so the conversation goes a little odd as we wonder where the other person went :) Luckily the software locally records so Tony continued recording!
