After wondering why Capcom doesn't just remake Dino Crisis, David Radd beat back the bugs (and other space marines) in Hellfront: Honeymoon and got really into the NJPW content in Yakuza 6: The Song of Life.  Meanwhile, Tuesday engaged in some  cruel fashion in Style Savvy: Styling Star and played some Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth because their Dark Passenger required them to get a monster collector.  In news, Microsoft announced they would sell the streaming rights to Activision Blizzard's catalog to Ubisoft if they acquired the company, in an attempt to placate the U.K.'s CMA and Sony announced that Project Q would be called PlayStation Portal and will come out November 15 for $199.  Also in news, Remnant 2 lead U.S. sales of all games in July and Embracer shuts down Volition  after talking about its fiscals and its collapsed $2 billion deal.  For the topic, David and Tuesday discuss the marketing and messaging around Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite and how things like the lack of X-Men, Chun Li's face and "characters are just functions" practically sank the game before it released.
