A new report from a trusted gaming industry analyst projects PlayStation 6 to launch in 2028 and sell only four million units in its first calendar year on the market. When you consider that even PS3 managed to sell three and a half million units in a mere four months, well, it might be a tough row to hoe. And when you take into account that this analysis assumes PS6 will sell for between $600 and $800, Sony may be in for a rude awakening indeed. We discuss. Then again, other analysis paints a far rosier picture, at least as far as Grand Theft Auto VI pre-sales are concerned, where Sony will be raking it in by the many hundreds of millions in royalties alone. Other news this week includes EA's reversal on its controversial College Football 27 microtransactions, the dominance of Call of Duty: Black Ops I and II's PSN release, the delay of the upcoming first party fight stick FlexStrike, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! Is PlayStation in dire need of a spokesperson? Does Crunchyroll's new approach with its subscription portend a dicey future for PSN? Have we ever lent a physical game to a friend (or someone else) and never received it back? Could Episode 420 mean throwing all caution to the wind?

Welcome to episode #283 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!In this episode, we continue the discussion regarding the continued success of the BO1 and BO2 ports, as they continue to hit record numbers of concurrent players and sales, topping GTA VI as a trending game in the PSN store. This comes as no surprise to us, but the question is how long will this last? We give our opinions on the success of these ports, and if they will rival the MW4 playerbase. If this is the case, the path for Call of Duty going forward looks much different than anticipated. Does COD lean into these ports for the future, or do they simply take the feedback from these games and apply it to future titles? We then move onto a quick overview of the season 5 roadmap, with a fan favorite map returning that we feel just came a bit too late in the year. We give our thoughts on this, along with the connection between these fan-favorite map releases and them being used in the CDL, as it could make the competition that much more exciting. We close with our COD Champs predictions, as we come down to the arguably the biggest and most prestigious event for the players to win. What are your thoughts on the continued success of these ports? Should developers be taking notes on what made these games good and apply it to their future games, or do you want more ports/remasters of old CODs? Do you want to see these older fan-favorite maps return earlier, or are you done with playing BO7 at this stage in the year? Finally, what did you think about COD Champs as an event, and the winners and losers? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more!

This episode kicks off with a Kelly fact about one of America's strangest historical figures...

A lot can happen in a week's time! Now that the dust is settling and we have a rare quiet moment for Xbox, it's time to fully unpack the immediate results of Xbox's Reset. We've learned that multiple Zenimax owned studios have returned to their smaller sized around the mid 2010s. When you look across the industry at the various indie and AA success stories, one has to wonder if AAA is no longer just borrowing creative ideas from these parts and, instead, emulating their business structure. Is there a lesson to be learned in Expedition 33 reaching 8+ million copies sold with a team of around 30 people and their strategic form of outsourcing? What of the 10+ person team at Mega Crit that works on the indie hit Slay The Spire 2? Does the industry truly need its titanic teams across the board or should there be exceptions to that rule in cases such as Rockstar? The reality is that we won't know for years how any of this pans out, but it's a good thought exercise nonetheless!

There are a lot of great things going on with the Steam Machine, but it might not quite be ready for prime time. Let's talk about my time with it so far, the price, the comparisons to other devices, all that stuff. Also: Call of Duty goes retro with new releases of old-ass Black Ops and Black Ops II, some more fallout from the Xbox cuts, Ubisoft workers go on strike, the idea of an OLED Switch 2, and more.

Bit of a quiet week this one as we start off with some Black Ops chat to celebrate the release of the PS5 version. We then talk AI slop, Easyway, private equity owned businesses, Chinese robo vacuums, tier listing chores and leaving negative reviews on small businesses.Our other segment this week is "what your x says about you," where we just rattle off stereotypes for some cheap laughs.___________________________________________________________FULL PODCAST EPISODES

Welcome to episode #282 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!In this episode, we start off with the news that we will finally be getting the long awaited MW4 multiplayer reveal trailer, coming on July 16th. We give our expectations on what questions we will have answered from this reveal, as well as knowing how the COD community will feel about what Infinity Ward shows us. This is coming off of a highly successful launch of the ports of Black Ops 1 and 2 for PS4 and PS5, and the question remains; will these ports end up having more players than MW4 at launch? We share our thoughts on this question, and the problem it may pose if this ends up being the reality. Along with this, we give our predictions for what the fate of these ports will end up being in the coming weeks and months. They most likely will lose their initial playerbase after the nostalgia wears off, and the focus will shift to the new title. There are many who disagree with this prediction, and that's the question we answer today. What are you expecting from this MW4 multiplayer reveal trailer? Do you think it will live up to the hype, or will it fall flat with the fans? What do you think of the BO1 and BO2 ports? Have you been playing them, and what are your thoughts on their longevity in 2026? Will old CODs take over as the main COD, skipping MW4 entirely, or will the nostalgia wear off? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more!

Welcome to episode #280 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!In this episode, we start off with a review of one of the best co-op games we've ever played; Split Fiction. For those interested in the game, we give a breakdown of it, predictions for the series, and discuss what makes it so great from year to year, and how COD could learn from this. We then shift to talking about Warzone and Multiplayer coexisting, and if this is really the best path forward. We give our thoughts on the idea of these being separate entities, hopefully giving more focus on each instead of trying to blend ideas into both games. We then end with talks about Black Ops 1 and 2 ports coming to PS5, making these old CODs playable on modern consoles. Though there is lots of hype surrounding this, we are skeptical about this being a good move for COD, and potentially a worrying sign. We give our reasoning, and share our thoughts on who these ports are really for. Have you ever heard of and/or played Split Fiction? Do you have a history with co-op games, or do you mainly stick to single player and multiplayer games? What are your thoughts on multiplayer and Warzone having no connection to one another, and being treated as separate games? Finally, how excited are you for the Black Ops 1 and 2 ports? Do you see yourself playing them a lot, or are you going to be focused on Modern Warfare 4? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more!

The Markers on the Map Jumbo Coloring and Activity Book 3 is sure to satisfy your craving for adventures in space. This week, join us for a look behind the curtain in a huge retrospective of our first 250 episodes. Relive some of our greatest discussions of the first six years, from humble beginnings to Black Ops rereleases. We discuss not only the podcast format, but some of our favorite episodes, specials, and games. And, a few games we didn't like all that much. As we take a long look at the past, we look forward to the future when the second half of season three premieres later this year. But look no further for some of the show's greatest hits than this massive episode! Keep up with the show during the recording break on BlueSky @MarkersOnTheMap.

PlayStation Network has once again been targeted by nefarious actors, this time exposing flaws in Sony's online infrastructure that we never even considered. If you've noticed weird games popping-up in your recently played list, titles that don't belong in your library, cluttered PSN widgets, and other oddities, you were affected. And while Sony seems to have begun to mend the issue, it feels like they're unable to accept their solemn corporate obligation to protect their customers. Will they ever even publicly admit their problems, nonetheless solve all of them? We discuss. Plus: Other news! Grand Theft Auto VI's pre-orders are imminent, rumors are circulating about a potential delay of PlayStation 6, Housemarque talks about its post-Saros future, Halo: Campaign Evolved's Trophies have been surreally revealed, Mark Hamill is set to appear in Twisted Metal's third season on Peacock, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! Is PlayStation at risk of losing its hard-earned prestige? Why aren't more at-risk studios sold instead of shuttered? Should Capcom get more credit for their runaway success with RE Engine? Will Dustin ever return to the show, or will Sacred forever move forward as a duo?

Halo is on PlayStation. Let that sink in. On this one we get into Halo: Campaign Evolved — the full Unreal Engine 5 remake landing on PS5, Xbox and PC on July 28 — and why cutting the multiplayer to protect the "next mainline Halo" might be the dumbest part of the whole thing. Plus the AI controversy Halo Studios can't stop being squirrely about. Then it's GTA 6: pre-orders go live June 25, November 19 release, no PC version, and the $100 price question nobody wants to answer honestly. Spoiler: if you'll pay $70, you'll pay $100, and we explain exactly why. But the one we're actually hyped about is WARDOGS — Bulkhead addressed the "too arcadey" killcam feedback head-on instead of going quiet like every AAA studio does. We break down the ghillie-suit compromise, the hardcore servers, and why devs who actually play their own game are so rare right now. Lightning round: CoD 2026 bringing DMZ back as the third mode, Black Ops 1 & 2 hitting PlayStation, and where the extraction-shooter graveyard leaves Marathon. Jake's optimistic. Raz sees the greed trap coming. Same as always. 0:00 Intro — back in the saddle 1:31 It's all about shooters 2:27 WARDOGS & the killcam controversy 7:07 Can't have it both ways: the killcam debate 7:49 The ghillie suit & hardcore server compromise 15:56 Devs who actually play their own game 19:59 The greed trap: how good shooters get ruined 29:50 Halo: Campaign Evolved comes to PlayStation 30:54 Cutting multiplayer to protect the next Halo 33:23 Are you a Halo or a Call of Duty guy? 45:52 The Halo AI controversy 1:05:09 GTA 6 pre-orders are live 1:05:40 No PC version — the PC wait 1:10:35 The $100 question & CEO spin 1:13:31 If you'll pay $70, you'll pay $100 1:15:56 Lightning round: CoD 2026 & DMZ returns 1:17:12 Black Ops 1 & 2 hit PlayStation 1:23:40 Marathon & the extraction graveyard 1:28:30 Patreon, wrap-up & goodbye _Note: timestamps may be slightly misaligned on podcast apps (but not on YouTube) due to dynamic ads._ The podcast is available wherever you listen to podcasts, and ad-free & early access versions - as well as bonus episodes - are available to all of our Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/thedropshot) supporters.

Welcome to episode #278 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!In this episode, we start off with the new DMZ reveal trailer for MW4. With DMZ being a returning mode after a couple years away, we discuss the importance of this mode, and talk about if it's something that Call of Duty should actually focus on, or leave to another studio to develop as its own game. We then shift to BO7, and the new classic mode that has been put out with season 4. This has breathed some new life into the game, and we give our thoughts on it, and why COD doesn't make their base game more like this temporary mode. We then shift to the Sony and Xbox game reveals, and the growing competition between both consoles. With remasters making an appearance for both studios, a potential Black Ops 1 and 2 port/remaster is rumored. We give our opinion on the success and risk of doing this, and close with talk regarding the everchanging CDL, as we are quickly approaching major 4. What did you think of the DMZ trailer? Are you going to be playing it, or is it something you will be avoiding? Have you gotten a chance to play the new classic mode in BO7? Who do you think is coming out on top for the console wars after both reveals, and what do you think of potential port/remasters of old COD titles?  Please let us know as we discuss this and much more!

Show DescriptionTonight on the Typical Skeptic Podcast, I'm joined by returning guest and disclosure researcher Nathan Ciszek.Nathan has become known for his outspoken views regarding disclosure, alleged remote influence technologies, social engineering, psychological operations, and what he believes are the hidden mechanisms shaping public perception.Unlike many voices in mainstream ufology, Nathan challenges popular narratives and encourages independent thinking when evaluating claims surrounding UFOs, experiencers, disclosure movements, and government involvement.Topics tonight include:

Bungie's total mindshare has collapsed 86% since 2019, Destiny is winding down to a final mission, and Marathon is on life support.

When small, deep-cover reconnaissance teams were compromised behind enemy lines, the military deployed its ultimate hidden hammer: the MACV-SOG Exploitation Forces. This episode breaks down the brutal tactical doctrine of "Hatchet Teams," the platoon-sized commando units engineered for heavy combat, airmobile ambushes, and lightning-fast rescue operations in denied territories. We analyze how these highly trained, multi-ethnic shock troops confronted massive North Vietnamese army forces to rewrite the rules of modern air-assault warfare.

Dive into the dark underworld of the global drug trade with world-class journalist Bill Conroy. In this gripping episode, we explore the shocking realities of the U.S. government's complicity in drug trafficking to fund clandestine Black Ops, tracing covert operations from the Iran-Contra affair to the explosion of opium production during the Afghan War. Discover how multi-ton shipments cross the border through corrupt customs officials, traverse American freeways, and end up on city streets. Conroy breaks down the "whack-a-mole" nature of busting cartels, the involvement of guerrilla groups like the ELN, and the brutal reality of a criminal enterprise where the only exits are jail or death.

⚡ TYPICAL SKEPTIC PODCAST #2563

Today on Word Balloon, I'm talking with a guy who's built a career jumping between crime, history, and deeply human storytelling, Ande Parks. You know him from powerful graphic novels like Union Station and Capote in Kansas, and from his work across comics and film, where he always finds a way to ground big ideas in real emotion. Now he's back with something new, and it's a sharp turn into darker territory. We're talking about Bad Thoughts, his latest project from Ignition Press.It's a military espionage story on the surface, but underneath there's something far stranger and more unsettling at work. This isn't just about missions and secrets. It's about what happens when the battlefield starts bending reality itself. And visually, the book hits just as hard. It's brought to life by Dave Wachter, whose gritty, atmospheric style perfectly matches the tension and psychological edge of the story.
