AMD is making their suite of enhanced graphic technologies FidelityFX available on Xbox, which might mean great things for the affordable Xbox Series S. Finally, if you're a fan of Portal 2, you must check out Portal Reloaded on Steam which has been modded by Janis Brinkmann and adds time travel!

If you're a fan of the Resident Evil franchise, then you're in luck as they're throwing everything possible at the fans! Fadi and I also discuss whether video game movies actually suck and how this myth could have started. Finally, we give our thoughts on a select number of indie games coming out on the Switch that Nintendo announced in the Indie World Showcase.

More updates from the AD Gaming initiative as Abu Dhabi welcomes Team Nigma to their new home in Abu Dhabi for the next 5 years! There's also a brand new location-based AR Arabian Nights: Genie's Treasures that is lauching in Ramadan and can net you a jackpot prize of one million dollars! In other news: you can install Xbox xCloud on your Windows 10 PC (but it won't work in the UAE 😒), you can finally pause in Outriders (kinda), an over 15 years fan project to adapt Metroid Prime into a 2D game has a demo out that is now available to downlaod (get it while it's hot), there's a new Resident Evil Village gameplay teaser that reveals some small tidbits, and we might be a remake of Naughty Dog's The Last of Us.

Another week, another Playstation announcement. We go through the 6 VR titles that Sony has just announced, as well as Fadi's experience with Bravely Default 2 on the Switch (oh we might see a sequel to the Switch, as well) and some other gaming news.

Sony's State of Play on the 25th left us with a lot of thoughts and expectations for future PS4 and PS5 games, specially that last Final Fantasy announcement (there's a rant). We also skim through BlizzConline's main announcement and some other gaming news that were sprinkled here and there throughout the week. Longest episode yet?
