This week is off to a rough start when Marcus and Justin try to create an AI to record the show for them which does not go well at all. Once the show as underway, however, we brought you all the best news. We discuss the dangers and difficulty of being a full time streamer, after the news of multiple suicides in the last couple weeks in the community, which then led to us discussing that Ninja is now streaming on Youtube. Continuing after that we talk about the USA banning TikTok.
The Last of Us 2 developers are under attack on social media over the direction of the game, we discuss our thoughts on the hate and the director's social media response. In other big news, Microsoft is looking to buy Warner Brothers Gaming division and we dive deep into whether this could be a good move for Microsoft or if something like Activision would be a better fit. Sony is also making big moves, investing a whopping $250 million into Epic Games.
This week we also further discuss the next-gen price hike of games to $70, and talk about DLC and cosmetics, how profitable games are, and how some publishers/developers (Capcom) exploit gamers by locking the end of a game behind DLC. In a tangent, Justin rants about how some people think Star Wars Episode 1 Racer remaster doesn't look good.
That's not all, there's so much content in this episode! Including an intellectual property lawsuit in China involving SNK, a mini Sega Arcade, Woke ASUS motherboards, and that Justin is Marcus's agent.
