  <itunes:subtitle>Yes that's right, I'm declaring an end to the console wars, and its end comes with Forza heading to PS5. They end not with a bang, but a whimper.

And EA faces and interesting future. While Disney+ loses almost a million subs, and Buffy is returning to a screen near you. </itunes:subtitle>
