Max was off during... something so it's just Nick and Brad today! Here to talk about all things gaming this week which... turns out to be all that plentiful. Still, we have a grand old discussion on the PS Vita and PSP, some of the best handheld consoles of all time, and unpack the Six Days in Fallujah controversy because... well, there's a lot going on there and none of it is especially good.

Back onto the usual schedule, Nick was unfortunately unable to join us in the studio this week due to a severe case of the sniffles. After a slight panic (pandemic living does that) it turns out he's okay, just unable to gather the energy to enthuse over video games. So us, being the caring friends we are, went on without him.

In this episode, Max and myself (Brad) talk about Microsoft potentially purchasing Discord, Sony shutting down a whole load of digital stores in the future and really get into a thick conversation about the brand new Monster Hunter: Rise. Oh, Doom Eternal also comes up but Monster Hunter: Rise! Now that's the game of the (half) hour.
