This week Zack, Darcy, and Bianca go through some hefty news, with studio acquisitions and ongoing legal feuds across the gaming landscape. In The Playlist, Zack gets back on the metroidvania train with Dead Cells while Bianca goes over a card game classic, Magic the Gathering. The team then ask the question: is the current gen disappointing? With the PS5 and Series X/S consoles losing some of their hype, whether or not they've lived up to expectations is on the mind. In the second half, the team design their dream games, reminisce about mobile classics, and go head-to-head with the quiz.
