Xbox has no games? You sure about that? Because I don't think that's a viable diss anymore. Did you get an Xbox Series X? Was it easier then PS5? Harder? Amazon has entered the game Streaming fray. Supergirl is super no more, while WandaVision and Nick Fury are taking off. Meanwhile John Cena gets his own comic book show.

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.
