Well would you look at that, 6 years in, we are still rambling about nonsense. Ubisoft finally announces and shows off its newest Assassin's Creed, Shadows, set in feudal Japan, allowing everyone to play out their Shogun dreams. Meanwhile, Square Enix is finally going to support a multiplatform agenda, and Helldivers breaks a record. Also Hollywood upfronts are going on, so we have a ton of TV news, not to be outdone, by the announcement of a new Lord of the Rings movie, or the return of Happy Gilmore.

Two of our biggest stories this week are making the internet collectively ask...Make it make sense. And guess what, I'm joining them. What is Xbox's strategy, and why is it so ever changing lately. Also how did we kill cable, only for it to come back. Plus Nintendo still doesn't want to talk about the Switch 2. Also the Office is coming back, so of course that's what we get in the hellscape of 2024. But I swear its a fun episode...come and take a listen.
