This week on The XboxCast we welcome back Producer Paul!
We all talk about the huge amount of games we played over the last month, well mostly Diablo...at least Paul has been playing something different.
Thankfully our amazing listeners actually play games, there is a rundown from all the stories they post in Discord.
As you all know our next event is Game of the Year, have you picked yours yet?
Our helpful run through of the big games that have come out this year, and what we still have to look forward to, will Indy arrive late and clean up?
Thank you for listening!

Welcome to the world's first concept podcast.
What is a pod? What is a cast? Are we even real?
Do you collect game maps? What map are you most proud of? What is the oldest game map you own?
Kyle dreams of having a map room full of (surprise!) maps. But the twist is they're all from games! It's like highbrow nerdiness! Imagine having Morrowind, next to the map from Anno 2205, next to a map of Sanctuary... Ah, a man can dream!
It doesn't matter - because we bring the news and new games this week, right into your earholes.
Xbox had a Partner Preview and released some games. And showed off even more games! It seems that when the media said Xbox has no games, they took that personally. Xbox's new mandate is to quadruple your backlog and ensure you need to quit your job just to scratch the surface of what Game Pass offers.
We have new games! The best games! Games that Lee has to play. You have to hump into our Discord and tell Lee to play these games. If anything, he has to play Date Everything! The game were your house appliances come to life and you get to romance them to your hearts content. Is the dishwasher as sassy as they first appear? Or maybe your Roomba is really sweet and encouraging? Who will you date?

In case you've missed it, we kind of like Diablo IV around here.
Diablo IV's expansion has dropped and with it, brings a slew of changes to the game! From reduced level cap (bye-bye Level 100 😢) to having your own hired sword for help with Mercenaries, Diablo IV should now be called Diablo 4.5.
But does it make a good game?
Does it still capture what made Diablo IV way better than Diablo 3?
And will you have to restart the game from the beginning?
Luckily, we're here to help!
With our very limited hands-on time with Vessel of Hatred, we can tell you how it stacks up to the original. What we like, what we don't like, and everything else in-between.
This is The XboxCast's review of Diablo IV: Vessel of Hatred.

The Tokyo Game Show has happened!
What tasty treats were announced this time? And what new ways can Xbox shoot themselves in the foot?
Fear not, my friends!
Xbox came, saw, and conquered the Tokyo Game Show this year! StarCraft: Remastered and StarCraft II: Campaign Collection are set to join PC Game Pass in November, making a legendary return to the gaming forefront. And joining the RTS hype, Age of Mythology got some love too, in the form of a brand-new expansion!
Not to be outdone, the legendary first six games in the Final Fantasy series have made their way into the world of Xbox (and Windows). Thats right, the Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters are here. The pixel remasters include universally updated 2D pixel graphics, a rearranged soundtrack and quality of life improvements. Updated gameplay includes modernized UI, auto-battle options, and supplementary extras such as a bestiary, illustration gallery and music player.
And if this is not enough for you, then catch up on all the news direct from Xbox themselves!
All this and more in this week's episode of The Regular Show.

What's better than The Sims 4?
The Sims 4 multiplayer!
Welcome to the future of The Sims 4, because we aren't getting The Sims 5 anytime soon...
Yes, that's right. The future of the franchise is multiplayer. Somehow. EA have claimed they don't want the Simes players to lose any progress, and so will continue to milk, uh, we mean support, The Sims 4 for a very long time. It has nothing to do with the obscene amounts of money all the add-ons are generating at all. Nope, EA is operating out of the goodness of their heart. Thanks EA, for allowing us the privilege of paying you. Over and over and over again.
Ara: History Untold leads this week's new games, and boy does it look good! We're eating good in the Xbox camp, no matter where you play - with Frostpunk 2, Ara, and Worms Armageddon exploding onto every screen Microsoft owns. Maybe buying up half the industry is starting to pay off? Or maybe we're just in a golden age of games, games and even more games.

What's faster than putting racing stripes on your new bike?
Wearing white leathers while riding said bike. Sadly, Lee has not graced with any pictures... Yet.
All of Annapurna Interactive has resigned! Thats right - everyone including the CEO walked out the door in a massive move of no confidence in the direction of the studio. What does this mean for their future projects? For Control 2 and the planned TV series? We break it all down for you to the best of our understanding. But things are still quite murky... We hope to hear more next week.
Apparently, Space Marine 2 is selling faster than Doom and Quake! Looks like gamers really just want a game where you walk forward and shoot things without any "messaging". Who would have thought!? Even the CEO of Saber Interactive is calling for a return to the glory days of the pure escapism of the Xbox 360 era. And we're all on board! Give us more hordes to mow down while looking awesome and we're there like a pear!
Xbox is bringing back friend requests. Wait, what? Did they ever leave? Apparently so. And we can thank the Xbox One generation for that. Now we are getting them back, we can rejoice in being friends again. So, what are you waiting for? Send us a friend request right now! Not sure how? Then you better check out our website...
Frostpunk 2 is coming soon. We go over 11 tips and tricks to get you ready for this brutal city builder and management game. The good news - it's coming Day One to Game Pass! Only on PC for now, but we're hanging out for the console release, which is coming soon™️. Wrap up warm, battle the cold, and see if you have what it takes to survive another day.
And get yourselves ready for #TerrorTober! This year's theme is Monster Mash. So, any game that features monsters' count. Mostly because Kyle is a wuss, and can't handle the Jandel when it comes to scary, well, anything!
All this and more in this week's episode of The Regular Show.

Xbox is the only console that exists.
The others don't exist. You've been lied to. We're here to expose the truth!
No wonder we haven't heard from Phil! He's been hiding in Antartica, playing the next-gen Xbox with the alien from Area 51. The truth is now exposed. Phil - you can come out of hiding now, and release the new Xbox It's ok.
We're all about the new phones this week. Lee is looking for a weird Chinese folding phone while Kyle is ranting about Apple's HomePod and the other audio stuff that Apple is now ignoring. Almost like we've forgotten we're an Xbox podcast...
Are we getting a Diablo Secret Cow level in Diablo 4? Lee has never seen the Secret Cow Level, which means his gaming credentials need to be taken off him. But we're getting closer to finding out if its real.

The kids are all buying their spaceships on Facebook Marketplace these days.
Or is it Temu?
Beware some light Alien Romulus spoilers ahead. Nothing serious.
But maybe watch the movie first to get all our jokes!
Diablo is the game of the moment. Like it ever left our rotation. Lee has not stopped playing it all year... But now Kyle is getting involved in the season and it just like two addicts encouraging each other. Luckily Simone is here to help Kyle play No Man's Sky!

Project Managers who listen to vinals and wear shawls are the future.
You heard it here first!
This is out Gamescom wrap up!
What is going on with Xbox? It seems they are intent to shoot themselves in the foot. Starfield is getting a great expansion, showing off the story telling chops of Bethesda. Borderlands 4 got announced after the disastrous movie flopped hard.

Lee is going fast.
So fast, that he's become a racing stripe!
Lee has a new motorbike! And it's a very pretty bike. So of course, we have a lot of very helpful suggestions about hot to not fall over. Kyle recommends some wheels Lee can attach to the back to help him with balance. I'm sure they have a name..
Indiana Jones is coming to PlayStation, is what leads another week to be disappointed in Xbox.
The new Xbox has a price and its stupidly expensive! And all Xbox has added is some extra space and a fancy coat of paint. How is this justifiable? Seriously, Xbox, get your act together!
We may just become a Bike & Diablo podcast after this one...
