Manage episode 434455850 series 3497134
Welcome to Active Reload! On this week's episode, James and Grant talk a little bit about the Borderland movie, a perfect example on how to NOT make a movie based on a video game and why studios insist on taking big name video games and turn them into something that misses lots of aspects of the source material. After that, the guys discuss the reception of Delta Force: Hawk Ops which becomes the catalyst for a conversation the rise of Chinese copycat video games, Delta Force: Hawk Ops looking like a copycat to Battlefield 2042. Finally, the gang discusses Valve and their quiet Alpha/Beta release of their unannounced upcoming game: Deadlock, James goes on a bit of a rant about how Valve has gotten to comfortable and complicit the past ten years, which is sure to rile up the audience.
