This week we're talking about Sony scaling back their Games as a Service plans, PlayStation Portal's reception and use cases, Embracer Group continuing their gradual downfall as they face financial troubles with more potential closures for their studios, and of course the topic on everyone's mind, The Game Awards! We faced technical issues, so it's a bit of a patchwork episode that we have to cut short, but we hope you enjoy it!
