007, AI, Apple TV, Assassin's Creed, Batgirl, Bethesda, Daredevil, EA, Fallout, God of War, MCU, Netflix, Playstation, Sony, South Park, Star Wars, TV, Xbox, amazon mgm, amazon prime video, arkham, asus, atari, battlefield 6, ben solo, darkseid, dcu, dead or alive, dead space, dice, disney, disney+, doublefine, dr who, event horizon, gamescom, gaming, geek, gen v, george lucas, glen powell, grand theft auto, gta vi, hbo max, horizon zero dawn, intellivison, james bond, james gunn, keeper, kylo ren, marvel studios, mortal kombat ii, movies, nerd, nintendo, palworld, peacemaker, peacock, pocketpair, pokémon, quantic dream, rockstar games, settlers of catan, sleeping dogs, stephen king, stranger things, superman, tencent, the boys, the flash, the hulk, twitch, twitchcon, ubisoft, video games, warnerbros, warnerbros discovery, xbox game studios, xbox rog ally
George has moved on, we need to accept that, elsewhere in a Galaxy Far Far Away Ben Solo is staying dead. Warner Bros has finally accepted its time to sell, after saying no to unwanted solicitors, Amazon paid pennies for James Bond. Xbox is sticking with the high prices, ಠ_ಠ, and more drama out of Ubisoft and Assassin's Creed. That and more on tonight's episode.

One Battle After Another, is what I should rename this podcast, because the movie was that good, and a full review is inside. Plus Xbox takes another self imposed L, Sony gives itself a gold medal, and EA goes private. The Simpsons are headed back to the big screen, and an AI "actress" has Hollywood in a fervor. Plus Forza Horizon is finally headed to the land of the Rising Sun, and Ubisoft gives Assassin's Creed a new home.

GTA VI took over the news across two weeks, and all with a delay and a new trailer. The Thunderbolts* have a new name, and I have a review. Plus Xbox pulls unexpected shenanigans, Ecco the Dolphin is returning, and Art Imitates life, well the other way around as the real Conclave begins. Plus Andor takes it to the next level, while still keeping it very Star Wars.

Days Gone, Dragon Age, EA, GTA, Kendrick Lamar, Lucasfilm, MCU, Playstation, Resident Evil, TV, activision, activisionblizzard, back to the future, baldur's gate 3, batman, blizzard, bobby kotick, call of duty, capcom, connecticut, crysis 4, crytek, diablo 4, disney+, elden ring, friendly neighborhood spider-man, gaming, geek, grand theft auto, gta 6, harrison ford, harry potter, hbo, hogwarts legacy, indiana jones, john lithgow, johnny cage, karl urban, larian, magic the gathering, metal gear solid, mortal kombat, movie theaters, movies, nerd, netherealm, nintendo, nintendo switch 2, onimusha, overwatch 2, playstation state of play, ps5, psn, roblox, rocksteady, sonic racers, super bowl lix, thunderbolts*, video games, warcraft, wb games, wonder woman, world of warcraft
Was it just me or were the commercials at the Super Bowl just not as good as they used to be? Even movie trailers were lacking. Anyway, PlayStation had a state of play and announced another remaster of a game that's less than 10 years old (-_-). An American in a major Harry potter role? A law about movie roles? How bout no, and A new Rocksteady Batman???

Another week, another meltdown over Xbox exclusives and "WhY ShOuLd I bUy An XbOx", all because Phil continues to say the same thing over and over for years. We also got confirmation that the Mass Effect Television show is full steam ahead! Lets hope Amazon repeats the magic it did with Fallout. Plus there are apparently a million star wars movies in development, and im sure only 4 will actually come out. Denzel teases his future in the MCU, and D23 Brazil brought the heat. That and a hell of a lot more.

Here we are yet again, streaming bundles are just cable, and its obvious that big tech just makes things more complicated then they ever needed to be. Also, gaming rumors run rampant this week, and they touch all facets of the industry. Meanwhile, consolidation hits a arm of the gaming biz no one expected, IGN gobbles up Eurogame, gamesindustry.biz and more, plus EA SPORTS College Football is here and has a release date. Plus the MCU is plotting its return, Star Trek is confused and the Monsterverse looses its captain.
