Thanks Corey Wallace for the title name. Because it's sad, it's bullshit, and it's MS's Nutella or whatever his name is.

We're back from a week off, and while we were gone so much fell apart, turned off, had service interruptions, and generally fell apart. We talk about it.

The only thing bleaker about Bioware's future is Bioware's present. Layoffs, "repurposings," departures... it's all leading up to nothing good for the legendary RPG studios. Also, we're preparing for Kingdom Come Deliverance 2.

Good advice for everyone. This week, Edie and Nick get very deep in the weeds about the future of gaming and how the United States is on the precipice of irrelevancy. Agree? Disagree? Tell us in the comments!

We've been away for two weeks and we have a LOT to catch up on. Assassin's Creed is delayed (again), Activision Blizzard is being sued (again), and a bunch of screen adaptations are delayed or cancelled, some due to the terrible, horrible fires in LA. We have lots more to talk about! We missed you!

It's the last show of 2024 (probably) and it's Edie's birthday, so we're reviewing our predictions (both right and wrong) and the biggest news items of 2024. What surprised us? What did we see coming? How is the video game industry different in December than it was in January? And what do we think will happen in 2025 and beyond? Let's get fast and loose with the facts and shoot the breeze together for possibly the last time in 2024.

Wow. I mean. I'm not sure if they are TRYING to go out of business, but Ubisoft continues to flail, and it seems Tencent is very much noticing. How the mighty have fallen. Oh, and Nick's back from Spain and Edie's been playing Diablo 4. We review both.

It's our last show of the month! Nick is off to sunbathe nekkid on a beach in Spain, drunk on dubstep and sangria. Or something like that. We fill you in on the latest before he goes, including Zenimax workers on strike!

Nick is about to bug out for sunny Spain. And we have news to talk about before he goes. TakeTwo officially announces a release window for GTA6, the PS5 Pro is NOT a mistake (really!), and if you're pissed off about that PSN account requirement to play that game you love, well... suck it up, buttercup.

So, we have something to say about this Xbox "streaming" bundle. Also, big name jumps from the Wolverine ship and lands on Perfect Dark island.
