I am Not currently being sued by Nintendo, which seems to be a shrinking club everyday. LOL, I kid, but Nintendo isnt, as they win a lawsuit and begin a new one. Tony Hawk is teasing a 25th Anniversary announcement, Sony is all up in the news for good and bad reasons, and Vince Zampella has some wild takes. Borderlands ends its sad run, Donald Glover wants to bring fun back to star wars, and Gary Oldman is open to going back to the Wizard World. That plus more.

March 21st, 2024 | 1 hr 18 mins
007, 20th century, aaron taylor johnson, akira toriyama, alien romulus, amazon prime video, among us, amy henig, apex legends, apple tv+, aspyr, beetlejuice beetlejuice, bill hader, billy dee williams, black mirror, black panther, blizzard entertainment, bullet train, bungie, captain america, colombia pictures, cyclops, dcu, deadpool 3, disney+, doctor who, dr. seuss, dune pt. 2, dune: awakening, ea game, embracer group, epic games, fallout, final fantasy 14, fortnite, furiosa, fx, fx on hulu, gabe newell, game developers conference, gaming, gdc, geek, george lucas, halo 2, hulu, james bond, james gunn, james marsden, jay and silent bob, jonathan nolan, kick-ass, lando calrissian, league of legends, lord gaben, mad max, madame web, marathon, margot robbie, marvel 1943 rise of hydra, marvel games, marvel zombies, max payne, max payne 1, mcu, metahuman, minecraft, movies, mr. beast, nerd, netflix, nic cage, nuka cola, overwatch 2, palworld, playstation 5, pokémon, popeye, ps5, ps5 pro, rebel moon pt. 2, remedy entertainment, respawn entertainment, riot games, rockstar games, saber interactive, sand land, skydance new media, sony pictures, sony playstation, spider-man, spider-man 2, spider-man noir, square enix, star citizen, star wars, star wars battlefront, star wars battlefront classic collection, state of unreal, steam, steve martin, sydney sweeny, teen titans, the acolyte, the bear, the cat in the hat, the crow, the high republic, the never ending story, the sims, the walt disney company, tim sweeny, tv, twitch, uefn, unreal engine 5, valve corp, video games, warner bros, xbox, xbox live
You read that correctly, the state of the gaming world is unreal, as in Unreal Engine. As the GDC is fully underway, there was still a lot of news to get through. From Epic games having their state of Unreal, to Saber Interactive breaking free from Embracers embrace, to the failure of the PSVR 2, and Star Wars Battlefront Classic Collection taking a nosedive. Also Popeye, The Cat in the Hat, and The Never Ending Story are all making some kind of comeback, The Acolyte gets its first trailer, and Dune Pt. 2 continues to sizzle as the box office. That and a whole lot more.

Hello All! Another week, another rant, but not as heated. As you can tell by the title its about Suicide Squad Kill the Justice League, and boy am I not happy. We also had a state of play from Sony, Microsoft gutted Blizzard, and Mass Effect is headed to Destiny. Meanwhile The Thunderbolts loses several stars, Supergirl is found, Denis Villeneuve has plans for Dune 3. Also, there was an issue with my microphone this week, so that will explain the poor audio quality.

And just like that, Thrawn is alive, and in person in Ahsoka. Would I have believed you if you told me five years ago Thrawn would appear in person, probably not, yet here we are. Also Microsoft really needs to find staff members that can upload a redacted document, that stays redacted. Because those leaks are no joke, especially when "private" emails are made public. Also It seems like the Writers may have scored a major victory against the studios. That and a hell of a lot more, come take a listen.

What are you doing in my swamp, because Shrek 5 is closer then you think. E3 is cancelled, and probably forever if we believe the games media. Scott Pilgrim is returning to our screens, and with the same cast as the movie. The Mandalorian brings the cameos and make sure to stick around because we will have a review of Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves
