If the title wasn't a giveaway, we have learned that Charles Martinet will not longer be the voice of Mario in future Mario games, tis a sad day in gaming. Yet at the same time Gamescom is currently going on in Germany, and we got a wealth of gaming news to talk about. Activision pulled the lid off of the Modern Warfare III, Atari is trying to make another comeback, and oh yeah, Microsoft is selling Activision streaming rights to Ubisoft. Meanwhile in Hollywoodland, the WGA continue their strike and call out the big three, Disney announces a slew of physical releases for digital only shows, and Ahsoka is the best live action Star Wars show, full stop. Plus I give my honest opinion about my top 10 favorite 80s movies.

If the title wasn't an indication of the news then I don't know how to tell you this. But Good Burger is coming Back! Good Burrger 2 was announced, among other things. But the Second Dominion war seems to be heading our way in the star trek universe, the Unreal Engine is literally forging new paths, the Power Rangers are back, and Shazam 2 was funnier then it had any business being.

Looks like those AMC Stonks really worked in our favor, (ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻. I am overjoyed that I don't have an AMC near me, because if I did, I would be even angrier. Any who, we had a Pokémon-less Nintendo Direct, but it was heavy on the Zelda, The UK and the EU write stern warning in regards to the Activision Microsoft Deal. Sony has a great gaming quarter, and the Switch jumps to #3 all time. The Justin Roiland drama heats up to a new level, and makes me happy about Rick & Morty's future, The Bad Batch may have peaked, and we get to return to Point Place, Wisconsin for another summer. Meanwhile we have what's new on Streaming, as well as news out of Disney, and of course, the aforementioned nonsense coming from AMC.

The Big Chungus will never be forgotten, as WB Games has registered a trademark in his honor. Video Game TV shows are coming, and we shouldn't have to wait very long. Lower Deck's Returns and doesn't pull any punches, while House of the Dragon brings back the intrigue and drama Westeros is known for. Meanwhile Axel Foley is back and I couldn't be happier.

We finally know what the PS5 UI will look like, and to be honest you'll have to listen to see what I think. What does Phil Spencer mean in regards to his stance on Elder Scrolls VI. Disney is doubling down on streaming and is reorganizing their whole operation. Meanwhile the Mad Max franchise grows, and James Bond future is in flux.
