This week we have a review of DC's The Flash, and after a long wait, it did not disappoint. Nintendo held a long and fruitful direct. Netflix held their annual Tudum event, and the FTC is smoking the same stuff as the UK's CMA. We also got news on two PlayStation movie ventures, Star Trek Strange New Worlds returns to screens, and Sony dropped a bloody and brutal Kraven the Hunter Trailer.

So here we are at a point where the EU has approved the ABK deal for the same reasons that the UK denied the deal, its unreal. We've learned that GTA 6 may be coming sooner then anyone expected. SquareEnix wants to keep growing, and Sony contracts. The WGA strike claims another victim, and who is excited for Fast X?
