The Scroll

This week on The Scroll, we tried to go boots-on-the-ground with the Battlefield 6 Open Beta, but the servers had other plans! We break down the chaotic launch, the massive queue times, and why some of us couldn't even get into the fight. Frank managed to sneak past the server errors for a little while, and he's here to share his very first impressions from his limited playtime. We discuss whether this messy launch is a bad omen for the game or just a bump in the road.

Then, we tackle a major industry controversy as we discuss GOG's protest against censorship and the "quiet erasure" of games. We break down why they're giving away so-called banned games for free and debate the power that platforms and payment processors have over what we can play.

Plus, could the future of game discovery be in swiping right for curation? We look at Ludocene, a new "dating app for games," and discuss whether expert-led recommendations are the answer to our ever-growing backlogs.

We also run through the new titles coming to Xbox Game Pass and give a special community shoutout to voice actress Kenneisha Thompson for her fantastic new role in the hit anime Gachiakuta. Join us for a packed show!

This week, we break down Warner Bros.' shocking $200 million loss on Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League and discuss why they're gambling on another live-service game.

Next, we tackle Sony's lawsuit against Tencent over an alleged Horizon 'clone' and debate the line between inspiration and imitation.

Finally, we compare strategies in the ecosystem war: Sony celebrates its legacy with classic PlayStation Plus games while Xbox looks to the future with cloud streaming for games you already own. We debate who had the better week.

This week on The Scroll, we're diving into one of the biggest release weekends of the year! We share our first impressions of the brand-new Fable reboot, Hideo Kojima's latest epic DEATH STRANDING 2: ON THE BEACH, and the charming return of Mario & Luigi: Brothership.

Then, we pivot to a serious discussion about the controversial crackdown on adult games on Steam. We explore the platform's hidden market, the power of payment processors, and the complex debate between censorship and creative freedom.

Later in the show, we deliver our full review of Hell Clock, a new action RPG set in a fantastical version of colonial Brazil, with unique classes and a world-changing time mechanic.

Finally, we close out the show with a fun "Gaming Confessions" segment, where we share our hottest takes and most embarrassing gaming stories.

This week on The Scroll, we're joined by our friend and special guest, Breadman, to break down some massive news about two of gaming's biggest franchises.

Then, we discuss the exciting news that Idris Elba has reportedly been cast as the lead in Netflix's live-action Assassin's Creed series and what it means for the future of video game adaptations.

We close out the show with Breadman by talking about our own personal gaming habits, what we're all playing now, and how we manage our ever-growing backlogs.

This week on The Scroll, we ask a question that's shaking the industry: Who really owns your games?

Join us as we dive deep into the "Stop Killing Games" debate, exploring the line between product ownership and service licensing in the wake of major game shutdowns.
