  <itunes:subtitle>Its that magical time of year, when all the games are announced, and the big 3 come together! I'm talking about, wait, no, E3 is gone, but its spirit lives on, in this disjointed days of virtual press conferences. Xbox had their Games Showcase and didn't show any of the tentpoles, Summer Games Fest knocked it out of the park with Resident Evil 9, and IGN Live tried to fill in some gaps. Plus, The Phoenician Scheme, Predator Killer of Killers, and Ballerina from the World of John Wick all get reviewed. </itunes:subtitle>

  <itunes:subtitle>On this week of Nicks Nerd News, we are joined by guest hosts Dan and Shaan.  You can expect less of a focus on the top stories, considering we recorded this episode two days after episode 366.  The guys cover a few stories from the world of gaming and cinema, while also discussing the games they have been enjoying and things they are excited about. We cover topics such as AI Darth Vader joining the Fortnite universe, Red Dead Redemption possibly coming to the Switch 2, first impressions on Expedition 33: Clair Obscur, Oblivion Remastered Vs. Skyrim, Marvel Rivals Vs Overwatch, Wes Andersons upcoming film, news on the upcoming Miami Vice Movie and many more.  We hope you enjoy the episode!</itunes:subtitle>
