E3 might be cancelled, but what happened over the last few days sure feels like E3. We had an Xbox Games Showcase, Ubisoft Forward, Summer Games Fest, Capcom Showcase, and and whole lot more. And boy, how about that Starfield Direct, that is the first time I've been excited for a Bethesda game. Also the Writers strike claims new victims, unsurprisingly, Netflix gets new subscribers, and stick around for a spoiler filled review of Transformers: Rise of the Beasts.

Episode 221: WB's Killing Joke

Well I'm thoroughly convinced Warner Bro's has no idea how to run film franchises anymore. As Batgirl has been shelved, potentially forever, and I mean forever. PlayStation kills a feature no one ever used, Streaming heats up this August, and the Arrowverse may have a end date.

Episode 213: Wait where are the E's? Aren't there supposed to be 3?

There is definitely a noticeable difference when E3 doesn't happen. Yet the gaming worlds keeps trucking. Sony dropped their state of play last week, which revelated Street Fighter 6 to the world. Sonic decided to stop by and announce new licensing deals. CoD is coming back with a vengeance. Netflix hosts its annual Geeked Week, and the CW is just idk man. Meanwhile Top Gun continues its dominance, Joker 2 is a real thing, and Beavis and Butthead Return!
