Episode 423: The Vice City of it All
June 24th, 2026 | 1 hr 4 mins

The wait is over for GTA VI....information. WE have all the details on GTA VI, and no its not getting delayed anymore. Valve also dropped the curtain on the Steam Machine and it is not cheap. Toy Story dominated the weekend, and no surprise there, and George Lucas is popping up in a very likely place. That and more this week!

Episode 420: To be Phranque...
June 3rd, 2026 | 57 mins 56 secs
007 first light, God of War, Lex Luthor, MCU, Playstation, Sony, Spider-Man, Star Wars, TV, Taylor Swift, Tom holland, Xbox, 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 laufey, insomniac games, io interactive, man of tomorrow, marcia lucas, marvel's wolverine, minecraft, modern warfare 4, movies, nerd, nvida, obesession, onimusha, playground games, rambo, rtx spark, sony playstation, sony santa monica, spider-noir, stargate, state of play, steam, steam deck, superman, tekken, toy story, toy story 5, valve corp, video games, warzone, 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.

Marvel goes back to what it knows for Doomsday, and Macauly decides what is and isn't a Christmas Movie. Plus we may have to wait a little longer for 007's video game return.

George has moved on, we need to accept that, elsewhere in a Galaxy Far Far Away Ben Solo is staying dead. Warner Bros has finally accepted its time to sell, after saying no to unwanted solicitors, Amazon paid pennies for James Bond. Xbox is sticking with the high prices, ಠ_ಠ, and more drama out of Ubisoft and Assassin's Creed. That and more on tonight's episode.

Episode 352: The Console Wars have ended

Yes that's right, I'm declaring an end to the console wars, and its end comes with Forza heading to PS5. They end not with a bang, but a whimper. Also Multiversus fails to capture any market share from Super Smash Bros, and is shutting down after a year. Both Fantastic Four and Jurassic World Rebirth drop some serious trailers. And EA faces and interesting future. While Disney+ loses almost a million subs, and Buffy is returning to a screen near you.

Two Pinocchio stories this week, one about a horror movie, the other, the return of Ultron. Its the week after Gamescom, so that means its time for Call of Duty news! Plus Nintendo decided to have a direct and not talk about the Switch's successor. Sony bombs out with their latest games as a service, and Lionsgate debuts their 2nd flop of the summer. Meanwhile Ted Lasso is gearing up for a new season on the pitch, and Tarantino takes a phaser to his chances of directing a Star Trek.
