Episode 131: And you Wagered?

Are you ready for Next Gen? Some studios are and some aren't. Sega is saying goodbye to a major facet of its history. Nintendo continues to dominate. The PS5 falls short in one big area. What's next for the future of Mass Effect? A mediocre showing for the Mandalorian. Jurassic World completes production, and Johnny Depp Departs the Fantastic Beast franchise.

Today we are doing something different, and its a look back at everything surrounding the Eight Generation of Video Game Consoles. What worked and what didn't, what I loved and what I thought was a great addition to the gaming community. One last hurrah for the Xbox One and the PlayStation 4.

Episode 126: The Consoles are coming, the consoles are coming!

PS5 and Xbox Series X are finally out in the wild. However, we know more about one then we do about the other, can you guess which is which? Nick also talks Crash Bandicoot 4 and Star Wars: Squadrons. Plus Marvels: Spider-Man has another new hiccup on PS%. Farmville is facing its doom. Quibi is over, and COPS is back, sorta. More movie delays, new movie podcasts, and Borat 2 is happening, very nice. Then we have serious questions about Jamie Foxx entering the MCU playing an unexpected character.

Episode 124: Pre-Order? Who said anything about pre-ordering

Did you get a PS5? Probably not, and its not your fault. Facebook double down on the Oculus platform. No Bungie and Microsoft aren't getting back together. Beyond Good and Evil has lost its head, but luckily not every body needs a head. Also more PS5 news. Small Screen shenanigan's like Disney+, The Mandalorian drops a trailer, and DC Universe falls to HBO Max. Is Ant-Man 3 setting up the big bad for phase 4 in the MCU? And Noah Hawleys Star Trek sounded like a snooze fest.

Episode 112: Mobile? Nintendont.

Nintendo seems to be shifting away from mobile, the all digital next Xbox is practically an open secret. Suicide Squad from Rocksteady? Sign me up. MIxer dies, as Twitch faces a reckoning. The doc is not in. Pokemon takes a major blow. Cyberpunk shines, and Marvels Avengers lands flat. Cobra Kai is shifting to Netflix, The Boys are back in September and the Muppet's are back sooner then you think. Margot Robbie is headed to the Caribbean, Spongebob is staying on TV, while Collin Trevorow is headed under the sea. Plus, Dodgson, we've got Dodgson here.

We got a Video game heavy episode, but that's OK, it ends with a bang with a review of Joker. We also got a lot of Pokemon news, a dump of tidbits out of New York Comic Con, like a new Picard trailer, and also some possible game changers over at Disney+

Is the CoD exclusivity backlash warranted or is it just built up frustration? Google wants to compete with Apple Arcade. The Emmy's happened...last week. Obi Wan finds a new master. The future is female for the Arrowverse. Spidey is back yall!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and updates on the Batman. Also a lot of new Star Wars toys are releasing this weekend.
