We did Xbox and now, we're tackling Playstation! While Sony has been the dominant leader in the console space for roughly the last five to six years, in recent memory, they have seemingly fumbled the ball repeatedly. There has been consistent mishandling of messaging, bungling of price points, and a seeming general lack of creativity coming from the Sony owned company. So what happened? Where are we sitting now? And possibly, most importantly, where is Sony headed in the near future? On this very special episode of the Hunting Pixels, I and special guests, Justin Ruiss and Shea Layton answer those very questions and more.

In there's is something that we've only glanced off of and that is worlds. Video game worlds are often just as important as all of the other elements and there are plethora of great ones.

Something that has become increasingly frequent in the entire entertainment industry is remaking classics from the medium. Hollywood has been doing this for years and it has increasingly stepped into the gaming world. Recent games such as Resident Evil 2, Final Fantasy 7 Remake, and Demon’s Souls have been the figureheads in this trend and it doesn’t look to be going anywhere. And, of course, we all have a game in mind that we'd love to see return, but that begs the question... how? Does Metal Gear Solid deserve a Resident Evil 2 style from the ground-up remake or am I just wanting to play it with updated visuals? What really is the purpose of a remake and a remaster, and possibly, more importantly, what exactly do we want from the two?

Media Discussed:

• Watcher
• The Nighthouse
• American Gigolo

The console wars are dead. We all know this, but social media seems to not. Everywhere online there seem to be pockets of fanboys who are often throwing shade or outright vitriol at a console that they do not call their own. So why is this?
