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.

We've got Comic-Con Updates! Marvel did not disappoint, as it lit up the airwaves, DC brought the Lanterns, and Spaceballs went to ludicrous speed! PlayStation got a big reality check as to why going digital is bad. Rick and Morty gave President Curtis his own show. And I went back to Installation 04 on legendary!

From The Batman part II being delayed, to Steam making $11b in 6 months. From the rising tide in Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynched, to the lack of IMAX 70mm. Yet that all couldn't save Moana from Te Fiti, you're welcome?

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.

Is XBOX back? Its making the right moves, hopefully it sticks to them. PlayStation causes an overhyped uproar, but should we still be worried? Michael dominates the box office, despite not moonwalking the critics, class is out on Gen V at Amazon after 2 seasons. And Sony is exploring a Django & Zorro Team up movie, im all in.

Plus Xbox news, PUBG wants to take Fornite's crown, and Avatar is losing steam.

Pokémon Go was used to farm us for AR images and map data, and Nvidia says we're wrong about DLSS5. Plus we have the Scooby gang all casted for Netflix's upcoming adaptation.

Episode 405: The San Diego Freeway Cast
February 18th, 2026 | 1 hr 11 mins
ai, amazon prime video, angry birds, avengers doomsday, bethesda, black ops 7, call of duty warzone, castlevania, chris hemsworth, daniel radcliffe, dc comics, dice awards, gaming, geek, god of war, hideo kojima, infinity ward, john wick, k-pop demon hunters, karl urban, lucasfilm, marathon, mcu, metal gear solid, mgm+, movies, nerd, netflix, nintendo, paramount, phil spencer, playstation, pokemon, ps5, resident evil, respawn entertainement, robert duvall, rovio, russo bros, scooby doo, sega, sonic the hedgehog, sony playstation, spider-man, spider-noir, star wars, star wars galactic racer, steam, steam deck, tencent, the avengers, the boys, the dark knight rises, the elder scrolls, the mandalorian and grogu, the simpsons, thor, todd howard, tv, ubisoft, valve, video games, vince zampella, warner brothers, wuthering heights
A week after the Super Bowl and we finally got The Mandalorian and Grogu trailer, took long enough. Also Warner Bros seems to finally relent and gives Paramount 7 days to try again. If the Simpsons ever ends, which is probably more likely than you think, it wont spend time on a grand finale. PlayStation held a state of play last week, and it was heavy on Kratos, plus if you are waiting on a steam deck, blame AI.
