Episode 429: Small Potato Stuff
August 5th, 2026 | 1 hr 19 mins
70mm, activision, amd, barbie, black ops 1 & 2, blade, booster gold, call of duty, call of duty black ops, christopher nolan, clueless, dave bautista, dcu, disney, disney+, dnd, dungeons & dragons, ea, ea games, elden ring, final fantasy vii, from software, game of thrones, gaming, geek, george rr martin, god of war, gpu, henry cavill, imax, james may, jeremy clarkson, kratos, lucasfilm, mcu, midnight club, moana, movies, nerd, nvidia, oded fehr, paramount+, pif, playstation, pokemon, ps5, ram, richard hammond, rockstar games, samsung, sony, sony columbia pictures, sony interactive entertainment, sony pictures, spider-man, spider-man brand new day, squareenix, star wars, steam, steam machine, the grand tour, the mandalorian, the mummy, the odyssey, tiktok, tv, valve, video games, walt disney pictures, warhammer, warhammer40k, warnerbros, wonder man, world of warcraft, wow, x-men, xbox
Spider-Man swung back into theaters, and it did exactly what we knew it would. The question is though, was it good? The RAMageddon becomes the RAMpocalypse, as it comes for every component, and will continue forever. Black Ops 1 & 2 jump the sales charts, and EA goes private. Meanwhile we should have listened to Wesley when he said he was the only Blade.

Episode 427: Zeus's Law
July 22nd, 2026 | 1 hr 6 mins
70mm, a24, activision, ai, amazon prime video, aston martin, avengers, avengers doomsday, backrooms, bethesda, bungie, call of duty, chrisotpher nolan, clayface, coleman domingo, days of thunder, dc, dcu, deadpool, disney, doctor doom, donkey kong, ebay, fallout, fallout 5, gamestop, gaming, geek, god of war, grand theft auto 6, gta 6, harada, hoppers, hulu, imax, infinity ward, jason bourne, knights of the old republic, kotor, kratos, lego, marathon, marvel comics, marvel studios, matt damon, mcu, modern warfare 4, movies, nerd, nintendo, nintendo switch 2, obsidian entertainment, paramount pictures, physical media, pixar, playstation, playstation 5, pokemon, pokemon go, roblox, robocop, ryan reynolds, saber interactive, sony, space marine 2, star wars, starfield, tekken, the elder scrolls, the elder scrolls 6, the odyssey, the princess and the frog, the x-files, tom cruise, toy story 5, tv, video games, walt disney pictures, warhammer, warhammer 40k, warner bros, xbox
If you are looking for a review of the odyssey, you wont find it here, but we have other exciting news. Like Disney cuts Pixar staff, even after making a billion dollars. Or Is Nintendo justified in telling consumers to stuff it after tariff refunds? PlayStation ain't budging on ditching discs, and some sales numbers back them up. But hey, at least we got a trailer for Avengers Doomsday!

Episode 424: Not my Monkeys, Not My Circus

Supergirl or Super girl? We have a full review of Supergirl, does it deserve all the hate? Xbox just unleashed a culling, and really they need to squash the rumors, and stop raising prices. Physical media is king, and we just multiple reasons for that, as the finger can be pointed purely at Sony.

Episode 423: The Vice City of it All
June 24th, 2026 | 1 hr 4 mins

The wait is over for GTA VI....information. WE have all the details on GTA VI, and no its not getting delayed anymore. Valve also dropped the curtain on the Steam Machine and it is not cheap. Toy Story dominated the weekend, and no surprise there, and George Lucas is popping up in a very likely place. That and more this week!

Episode 421: By the Power of Grayskull
June 10th, 2026 | 1 hr 13 mins
007 first light, 21 jump street, amazon games, asha, crazy taxi, desitny 2, devil may cry, disney+, gaming, gears of war, gears of war e-day, geek, god of war, god of war laufey, halo, he-man, house, hugh laurie, ign live, io interactive, jason momoa, kojima, lucasfilm, marjane satrapi, masters of the universe, moon studios, movies, nerd, netflix, nina theory, nintendo direct, ocarina of time, resident evil, sccoby-doo, skeletor, star wars, steam machine, summer games fest, super mario galaxy movie, the acolyte, the legend of zelda, the legend of zelda ocarina of time, the odyssey, tv, ubisoft, video games, xbox, xbox game pass, xbox games showcase
Did He-Man come out a few decades too late? I liked the movie, but does it have the power? Summer Games Fest hit Friday afternoon with a bang, Xbox brought the lancer, and immediately stepped on a rake. Meanwhile Nintendo finally revealed the game everyone knew about, as the Ocarina of time returns. Plus a new 21 Jump street is coming, but why the skip to 24?

Episode 420: To be Phranque...
June 3rd, 2026 | 57 mins 56 secs
007 first light, a minecraft movie, a24, activision, amazon prime video, backrooms, call of duty, call of duty modern warfare, call of duty warzone, dcu, escape from new york, fable, gaming, geek, god of war, god of war laufey, insomniac games, io interactive, lex luthor, man of tomorrow, marcia lucas, marvel's wolverine, mcu, minecraft, modern warfare 4, movies, nerd, nvida, obesession, onimusha, playground games, playstation, rambo, rtx spark, sony, sony playstation, sony santa monica, spider-man, spider-noir, star wars, stargate, state of play, steam, steam deck, superman, taylor swift, tekken, tom holland, toy story, toy story 5, tv, valve corp, video games, warzone, xbox, xbox game studios, zack snyder
God of War Returns, and Wolverine is set for September. But so is every other game apparently. So while we all wait for GTA VI, we can now also wait even longer for Fable. Steam may have been hiding in plain sight as a villain all along, we now look to Lord Gaben for guidance. Spider-Noir is more Groucho than Cagney, but it might work in its favor. And Call of Duty is bringing us to East Asia.

Let's do Hutt Stuff while Mando is away. We've got a review of The Mandalorian and Grogu, and Nick updates his Star Wars Ranking. Plus The Steam Deck is the latest gaming device to get a price hike, but hey at least a new Witcher 3 DLC is coming out! Excelsior! Stan Lee is coming back, but i'm not so sure everyone will be happy about that, and Bungie is taking the light out of Destiny 2.

Its time to start your engines, because a new Forza Horizon is out and ready to be driven, and all in the shadow of Mt. Fuji. Plus XBOX may have to go back to exclusives, while PlayStation is ditching PC. HBO gave us our first real look at Lanterns ahead of its August release, and PlayStation is also hoping on the price increase train, as PS+ gets a hike.

Fatality! Mortal Kombat II is out, and its hilarious, in a good way! Plus Mixtape shines in a way I never expected. Meanwhile, Nintendo jumps on the price increase bandwagon, Ahsoka is stuck in another galaxy for another year, and peacock is about to get a speed boost.
