  • Astro Bot & Concord - A Playstation Story

    What an insane week for Playstation. Concord gets shut down in what will be regarded as one of the biggest fails in modern gaming and then in the same week Sony delivers Astro Bot, regarded by many journalists as Playstation's best exclusive game! A new mascot is about to take hold for Playstation delivering quality that may match Nintendo's platformer's standards. However, the debate rages on about the state of the industry as a whole including Playstation's future.

  • Playstation FAILS & Xbox's Future w/ Gene Park!

    PlayStation and its live service and multiplayer pivot is not going so well. Concord from Firewalk Studios has seen abysmal numbers of players on Steam and doesn't seem to be making a meaningful splash on console either. The reviews are also middling yet some diehard fans maintain that the game is good. To make matters worse, Marathon's director at Bungie has been fired over inappropriate conduct. This comes off the back of reports that the game's development is not going well. Will Marathon be another failure in Sony's strategy? In other news, Black Myth Wukong shuts down many naysayers with its blistering success and raises questions regarding the validity of concerns regarding diversity in games in the West. Call of Duty Black Ops 6's beta hits and the marketing is in full swing, showing lots of potential. Square Enix confirms that it will now double down efforts with Xbox and Final Fantasy 14 appears to have performed strongly according to Square. What does the future of Xbox look like now that it has essentially become a third party publisher?

    Ahead of its Xbox's Gamescom showing, insiders report that another big Xbox game will be losing exclusivity and that will be announced this coming week. What will it be and are Xbox fans losing faith in the brand as the brand appears to be losing its identity. Black Myth Wukong reviews have been released with overall positive reviews with one review really summing up how fed up people are of woke ideologiies and rationales seeping into gaming narratives. Final Fantasy 16 is rumoured to be coming to Xbox. Replaced got delayed to 2025, Marathon is supposedly in development hell, Max Payne 1 and 2 are in full production, Space Marines 2 looks very impressive and Playstation's hardware decline got some people very defensive. I discuss all this and more!

  • Is Concord Destined To Fail?

    Things dont look good for Playstation first party title Concord which has had a closed and open beta with a lukewarm reception and really low player numbers.

Halo the TV series gets cancelled, Call of Duty's beta will be available to all Xbox Game Pass subscribers and more.

  • The Best Gears of War Might Be On Its Way

    Xbox's first party lineup looks amazing. We are set to get some really diverse and incredible looking titles and Gears of War looks like one of the best ones yet. But I've felt Gears of War needed a change since the second game. Gears of War E Day might be the type of Gears game I've been harping on about for years on podcasts. This one could be something special.

    Xbox ditches its hardware focus with the announcement of Xbox cloud support for people who use the Amazon Firestick. Is this a good strategy?
    In other news, Playstation fanboys blame SEGA's financial losses on Xbox for some reason, Helldivers sees its player numbers plummet by 90%, Forza Horizon 4 is being delisted and Playstation still doesn't have a roadmap.

  • Xbox and Its Future Strategy - Smart or Short-Sighted?

    More Xbox games are going to be going to Playstation. Phil Spencer confirmed this at the Xbox showcase event and Matt Booty this week also doubled down on it but suggested that this would be adopted on a case by case basis. But his words also alluded to Xbox exclusives just being nothing more than timed exclusives. Just how for will Xbox go with this multiplat strategy? Are Playstation and Xbox just timed exclusive boxes anyway?
    This week also saw controvery surrounding Black Myth Wukong whereby Windows Central's interview with Xbox and their statement led many people to conclude that Sony had secretly money-hatted the exclusivity of Black Myth Wukong to deprive Xbox of access for the game at launch.
    Sony is allegedly pulling PSVR 2 funding and that should surprise....nobody.
