Starting Point

To Infinity and Studio Closure


Listen Later

Brian and Corey discuss Disney's decision to discontinue the Disney Infinity franchise, shutter Avalanche Studio, and completely discontinue publishing.  We also talk about the uninspired release of Playmation Marvel Avengers and how it reminds us of Captain Power from the 1980s.  Then don't miss our short discussion on the less-than-admirable way Polygon began reporting the story.  Corey brings up Pokemon?  Of course, we couldn't possilby have an episode without talking Blizzard.  And Brian seriously needs himself some Persona 5.
