Episode 590: This is not God of War Jun 8, 2026 5371 It's the summer of the delay. This week Raz and Jake break down two tactical shooters moving in opposite directions — Hell Let Loose: Vietnam getting pushed back to August after a rough beta, and Wardogs pulling its early access UP (something you basically never see) — and what each move says about a studio's confidence. Then it's Summer Game Fest: the turn-based Star Wars Zero Company that's r
Episode 589: Modern Warfare 4 Looks Good — We Still Want It to Fail Jun 1, 2026 6446 Modern Warfare 4 got revealed, 007 First Light is finally out, and the Hell Let Loose: Vietnam beta dropped — so naturally we spent an episode on the franchise we swore off, a Bond game that isn't quite Hitman, and a beta that can't hold a frame rate. We get into the HLL: Vietnam open beta (the rubber-banding, the keybinds that won't stick, the studio's track record) and whether it's worth grab
Episode 588: We Put 27 Hours Into Forza Horizon 6 (And We Have Opinions) May 25, 2026 6895 Forza Horizon 6 dropped in Japan and we both went deep — Raz put in 27 hours, Jake is still learning.

We go hard on the manual vs. automatic debate (Jake is on manual with clutch, Raz is on automatic — and Jake has opinions a

We break down what the bill actually says, why the gaming industry is quietly panicking, and whether it'll even survive long enough to matter. Then: Subnautica 2 launched in Early Access and immediately broke Steam records for
Episode 586: The Gaming Industry Is Cooked (Sony, GTA 6, UFOs) May 10, 2026 7644 Sony just wrote off $765 million on Bungie — and somehow that's not even the wildest thing that happened in gaming this week. We break down what PlayStation's impairment loss actually means for Marathon, whether Xbox has quietly become just a publishing label, and why the GTA 6 PC delay is a deliberate cash grab no matter what Take-Two's CEO says. Plus: Tarkov is officially going the live servi
