Take a look, it's in a BOOK, a Reading Rainbow! That's right, we finally get to see what Chief and the gang are up to four years later in a new novel. What even is the current direction for the future of Halo? We know that it's in Unreal Engine 5 and a new studio name, but do we really know much beyond that? Summer Games Fest and Microsoft's Xbox showcase are right around the corner, as well as the release of the Switch 2! There's a lot happening, so let's discuss.

Bungie was once my favorite developer of all time, but that time was half my life ago. They're a company who's always claimed to know what's best no matter the situation and after a decade of ups and downs with Destiny the company has finally hit their own personal rock bottom. Their latest game, Marathon needs to reach a massive audience. The reaction thus far has been lukewarm at best, painting an already bleak picture. Now, they've admitted to stealing artwork. We've already seen floundering profits, huge layoffs and frustration from both fans and Sony. Is this Bungie's end?

Here to share with me his personal journey through gaming is none other than the Mustard Chief himself. We talk everything from early Nintendo days all the way to Halo.

Joining us on this episode is Photon, here to tell us about his own personal Great Journey with a series we love so dear.

(SPOILER FREE) We've been hands on with id Software's latest entry in the DOOM series for a few days now and we're excited to tell you if it lives up to the lofty expectations set by the previous games. Going back many years before the events of DOOM (2016), The Dark Ages sees us in the middle of a medieval war armed with a fur pelt and chainsaw shield. A lot has changed, but is it for the better?

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remaster. $80 games. $600 Xbox's. Gears of War on PlayStation. My brother Crayton is here to discuss it all with me during a wonderful Mother's Day afternoon. Enjoy.

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remaster has been out for a little while now and it has many reassessing their thoughts on Bethesda. This studio is known for offering many gamers some of the best video game experiences of their life despite recent games receiving much criticism, fair or otherwise. Does a rose-tinted glance back into the past reveal the studio was always the GOAT or are we just drunk with nostalgia? Here to discuss the ends and outs of our Bethesda fandom is my friend Wesley! Also, Xbox's are $600, and Clair Obscur is $50...something is amiss!

Hey, guess what? The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remaster just stealth dropped. Oh, then Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 released to a 92 Metacritic and universal praise. There's a Marathon alpha going and in just over two weeks DOOM: The Dark Ages releases. Then less a month later the Switch 2 console releases with Mario Kart World. How is one supposed to engage in so much goodness with so little time?

Our deepest roots lie within one of Bungie's franchises, so what are our thoughts on their latest game after a news blowout and release date announcement? The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remaster is so close to stealth dropping that there's a good chance its out when you're reading this. Switch 2 pre-orders have finally gone live and the year is just about to get crazy busy with some high profile releases. We're excited.

After eight long years Nintendo has finally decided to unveil the successor to what is probably the most successful console of all time. We always expect Nintendo to fumble in some way, whether it be unneeded motion controls or some other gimmick we'll never use. Oddly enough, this time Nintendo has delivered perhaps the exact system we've always wanted. It's what came after the reveal that set everything on fire.
