Episode 119: When Infinite becomes Indefinite
August 19th, 2020 | 1 hr 14 mins

Will the delay of Halo Infinite hurt the Launch of Series X? Probably, Nick has some thoughts. Apple and Epic are duking it out in a battle for the ages, who will come out on top. Star Trek is boldly going but not as soon as you might expect, while Agents of Shield goes above and beyond expectations in its finale. Tron 3 is happening but at what cost? And movie theaters are opening but is it worth it? That and a hell of a lot more.
