It's Labor Day Weekend, so we're kicking back and taking it easy! Bronson's playing World of Warcraft and Aaron's playing some World of Warcraft, so the first hour is mostly about WoW and FFXIV, but not before Jesse gives us some brief thoughts on the first four hours of Starfield! Beyond that, we talk about how people have been receiving Starfield's early reviews, Playstation Plus' partial price increases, Microsoft removing the $1 free trial just before Starfield's release, Volition shutting down and saying goodbye to Saint's Row, a potential strike for SAG-AFTRA members in the "interactive media" (video game) space, and more!

EA, master of good business decisions, saw Baldur's Gate 3's massive success and decided to fire 50 of their employees, including writers partially responsible for the writing of the original Baldur's Gate games. Brilliant! Netflix's password plan is working (for now), Microsoft and the UK's bizarre fight over cloud gaming develops, Konami's Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Volume 1 has some updated information, our beloved Charlies Martinet is no longer voicing Mario (which naturally led to talking about Chris Pratt), Forza Motorsport's specs were released, and Persona 3 Reload got a sweet trailer!

The Xbox 360 store is going away for reasons that aren't clear and will leave a number of digital-only Xbox games unable to be purchased ever again. On top of that, Forza Motorsport is launching without a few features, Starfield might be showing a GPU preference, Linus Tech Tips is drowning in drama and controversy, Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 (the remake) is coming out in a few months, the Scott Pilgrim anime has a trailer, and more! After the episode, sure to join our Discord through our Twitch or Kick page to continue the discussions with us!

The big conversation on gaming Twitter this week is about Baldur's Gate 3 and gamers' expectations of AAA games, and the hits and misfires that made up the discourse. We also talk about Overwatch 2's declining numbers, Disney Plus speedrunning becoming too expensive, Street Fighter 6 TMNT costumes costing WAAAY too much, and more!

Looks like we're getting a new Nintendo console next year! We talk about their history and what we're hoping to see from them, Xbox banning people using emulators on their consoles, the new Fatal Fury game, the Killer Instinct update(?!), Discord streaming Xbox games, the success of Baldur's Gate III, and more!

Final Fantasy XIV has announced their new expansion Dawntrail! We talk a lot about the new areas and features we can expect, but we also talk about Xbox and Sony's latest console numbers and revisit Microsoft's potential master plan. Also, Ubisoft's gonna shut down profiles for some reason, Exoprimal gets 1,000,000 players, some news about Tekken 8's roster, Nickelodeon All Star Brawl 2 (already?) and its roster, and more!
