Enjoy the show and join us next weekend for the following episode!

Alex and Chace are back, and so is hockey! Yes, the NHL season is finally here and in full swing already. Today, the guys start by looking at some major signings that have happened around the NHL. Breaking down each one and giving their thoughts on what it means for the player and the team.

From there, they jump into some early season talking points such as the Toronto Maple Leafs season start and what it means. They go around the league looking at some teams before their guest joins them. Sean McIndoe of the Athletic NHL and Puck Soup joins the guys! Together, they get Sean's opinions on the Leafs, is scoring up and will it stay that way, and how aggressive will NHL teams be tanking this season. Tune in for all of this discussion and much more, with the MnM Hockey Podcast!

Two upcoming games are causing a big stir this week for different reasons.

Gotham Knights running at 30 FPS instead of 60 FPS sends gamers into a tizzy because it isn't the peak performance one would expect from a Current gen game. Sean, Marc, and Daniel discuss and debate their stance on the subject and if 30 FPS games could still be happening even further into this console generation.

Bayonetta 3 also featured in its own controversy with the past voice of the lead character, Hellena Taylor, saying she didn't return to reprise her role because she wasn't offered a fair wage for her services. This led to a lot of other things including current Bayonetta voice actress Jennifer Hale having to release a statement as well.

The CMA has pursued a Phase 2 investigation in the Activision-Blizzard-King acquisition, forcing Microsoft to lay it all out there to prevent a big blow to their hopes of landing the Call of Duty maker. Could Sony have also delayed a PlayStation Showcase to strengthen its position further as well?

Plus, Sean has thoughts on Scorn, and Silent Hill is finally back! Or well we are supposed to get some info pretty soon at least. The sad ending of G4, and a mini She-Hulk Season 1 Review.

What's up Internet? This week on Last Word SC Radio, Matt, Rachael, and Jamie get together. We recap all the action from the MLS Cup Playoffs first round. We discuss Austin and Dallas outplaying opponents but having to win in penalties. What went wrong for New York Red Bulls against FC Cincinnati? Are LA Galaxy hot enough to go after LAFC like they did with Nashville? New York City FC looked like 2021 against Inter Miami CF. We look ahead to the Conference Semifinals.

In this episode of the Necessary Roughness Podcast, host Nikolas Donadic dives into the NFL regular season’s Week 6 matchups. He also touches on Matt Rhule’s forgettable tenure in Carolina, weighs in on the NFL’s safety protocols, and can’t help but rant about Aaron Boone and the Yankees. Enjoy the show and join us next weekend for the following episode!

Another week in video games and another week that revolves around Microsoft and Activision-Blizzard. Whether it is Brazil approving the Microsoft acquisition of ABK, Overwatch 2 launching with various issues, or even Call of Duty also forcing people to use a mobile device there are certainly a lot of talking points for Sean and Marc to mull over.

 

Marc did run into some issues, but he's also played Overwatch 2 and gives out his Launch Impressions on this episode.

Would You buy an Xbox Streaming Device? Well, Phil Spencer may have possibly teased the existence of it while hyping a tweet. Sean discusses how the right price could make this a viable option for people that want to get into gaming without a box. While you can probably expect that Marc will have an opposing opinion on the matter.

The Super Mario Bros. movie got its first teaser trailer and it was pretty cool. Meta bought some gaming VR studios, and much more.

* Apologies, I didn't realize until after we finished recording that I didn't talk about my thoughts on the Pokemon Gameplay Trailer. There's supposed to be more info on the game coming this week. So for the next episode, I'll make sure it gets covered. * - Sean

What's up, Internet?

This week on Last Word SC Radio, Rachael Kriger, Jamie Rooke and Harvey Cruz talk about the big results from MLS 2022 Decision Day, including Portland and Columbus narrowly missing out on playoff spots, while Real Salt Lake and Minnesota United are in for the West and Orlando City SC and Inter Miami are in for the East.

The trio then discusses the upcoming MLS Cup Playoffs, detailing each of the opening matches of Round 1. LAFC and Philadelphia have a bye. Harvey talks about what could be a chaotic Cincinnati and Red Bulls game. Rachael isn't convinced by New York City FC. And finally Jamie puts all his money in on Nashville getting the upset over the Galaxy.

Alex is back for another episode! Today is his final episode before the 2022-23 Ottawa Senators season gets underway. To help him preview everything, friend of the podcast Derek Lee makes his return. Derek hasn't been on the podcasts since the start of last season, so the two discuss how different of a feeling it is entering this year.

Last year, the Sens were coming off of a disappointing offseason which soon translated into a brutal start. However, this year has been the exact opposite. Obviously, the results are undetermined so far, but the offseason has been nothing but positive. The guys look at the forwards, defence, and goaltending. Giving their opinion on all three of them and highlighting what they are excited about, as well as what they are worried about.

Overall, the guys agree that they are very excited about this season. Something that truthfully hasn't been the case for the past few years. Stay with the Last Word on Sens podcast all year for analysis and opinions!

CD Projekt Dropped some HUGE news confirming they are working on a brand new IP, an entire second Witcher trilogy, two other Witcher projects being developed by other studios, and even a sequel to Cyberpunk 2077 as well called Project Orion. Sean and Marc discuss their thoughts on this bold initiative by the company to just announce it all at once and if this will lead to redemption for the studio.

Sony and Microsoft's battle over the Activision-Blizzard-King deal continues with each side having its final meetings and say before the CMA goes into investigation mode. Microsoft even made an entire site dedicated to the deal. Could this actually help them get the deal passed? Or are the constant complaints from Sony going to halt it?

Also, Sony drew the ire of social media with rumored plans to Remaster or possibly even Remake Horizon Zero Dawn to make it more in line with its sequel Horizon Forbidden West so that it creates more hype around the game when the Netflix series launches. Sean and Marc discuss if there's a legit reason for this to even be made, and why are so many are upset with it happening.

Plus, things aren't going great for the Overwatch 2 launch, even more, TV shows and Movie news from The Medium, The Mario movie, and possibly even From Software IP too. Tencent wants to fully acquire studios instead of investing, and Fandom acquires a whole slew of gaming sites from Red Ventures too.

Sean played Josh Journey Darkness Totems (* A Review Code was provided by Provincia Studios *), while Marc is very close to the end of Grand Theft Auto V.
