Warmest of welcomes everybody, This month on the Moooglecast, Max and Zac are reunited aswell as being joined by a brand new guest, Ryan (RWolvin) from the discord. The guys start with platinum shoutouts including some very rare entries, taken straight out of the discord. Cactuar vs. Tonberry follows with a fresh set of challenges for Max and Zac to contend with, are the boys beginning to to turn up the difficulty slider on eachothers challenges? The Record makes a reappearance this month, highlighting that fan-favourite post apocalyptic series, Fallout! Max kicks off what we have been playing with two months worth of gaming, including some plats and a lot of menial jobs. Ryan's up next with games across a number of genres as he makes the most of his PS Portal. Zac closes off the segment with a remarkably quiet month only speaking on two games but one platinum manages to be completed. The meat and potatoes this month sees the guys talking all about the stuff that gets added to games post launch, DLC, updates and expansions. They talk about some of their favourites, some wishlist ideas and the trophies or lack there of that come with these releases. We hope you enjoy this episode and as always, be excellent to each other!

This week, Zak and Aaron are back to talk about the biggest event in the history of the games industry, and why it could still be considered a failure in the eyes of investors. That's right, Grand Theft Auto VI, the game to end all games and save manufacturers from languishing console sails, could absolutely flop. If its hotly anticipated online component doesn't just meet, but exceed the astronomical financial figures posted by GTA V since its launch in 2013, the future of Rockstar and its 5,000-plus employees may be a lot less stable than previously imagined.Sources:I Cant Believe You've Done This - PWee28Take-Two's real GTA 6 jackpot may not be the game itself - The StreetGTA 5 Statistics 2026 - Axis Intelligence ResearchGTA Online Leak Reveals $5 Billion In Revenue, Shocking Spending Habits - RockstarIntelGTA 6 is a 'singleplayer experience', leaving me to question what's going on with GTA Online - PC GamerGTA 6 Doesn't Mean The End Of GTA Online, Says Take-Two CEO - KotakuGTA 6 Has the Highest Break-Even Threshold in Entertainment History - GTABoomListen to Beach Girl on SpotifyCheck Out MosscatMarket on Instagram

A week after the major XBOX layoffs we've had some fallout with parts of Bethesda threatening to strike, and finding out that Id software is actually still making a new DOOM game despite all of the dismissals at the studio. There's also a new Fallout game in development from Obsidian and yes, they are still making Avowed 2 for the time being too. So there's some good and bad coming from what's been a torrid few weeks for XBOX. PlayStation is also having to deal with its own fallout from their major decision to stop making discs, with petition's to prevent it from happening getting louder and PC players taking unfortunate matters into their own hands, none of this may deter Sony from turning back according to a certain Dr. Serkan Toto. Not to mention, some lawsuits that may already be in the works too. Plus, some news on the Resident Evil Requiem story DLC, Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced is selling well, and more!You can also watch this episode in video form on the W2M Network Youtube Channel, please give us a like, comment on the episode, and give the channel a subscribe and follow as well: https://youtube.com/live/ThfjPkC-Y-4

Cory Mittleider: Thanks for having us. Allen Hall: So we’ve got two bearing experts in one location, and this is the point where we start asking all of our bearing questions. Cory, you’re with Malloy Wind, and we’ve had you on the podcast two or three different times. Loren’s with NSK — we’ve had Loren on at least once before. Loren Walton: Once, yes. Allen Hall: Yeah, and that was good. Loren Walton: I appreciate that. It was fun. Allen Hall: There are a lot of bearing issues happening in the States at the moment, but also globally. Whatever happens in the States, you can pretty much find in Australia, Canada, Singapore, Mexico, South America, Brazil — everywhere. We’re hearing a lot about main bearings, and there’s a variety of things that I think you two know from being on the inside that we on the outside haven’t heard yet. I want to get some of those stories out and understand what’s going on, because operators are trying to keep their assets running, and bearings are a big issue. Let’s talk main bearings. What are you seeing in the field right now? What kinds of problems are happening? Cory Mittleider: It seems like operators are coming to us and asking us to supply bearings that no longer have DLC. That’s a bit of a phenomenon lately. For a little over a decade we spent our time supplying bearings with DLC on the rollers to address problems found fifteen years ago. Allen Hall: DLC is diamond-like coating. Cory Mittleider: Correct. Allen Hall: Which is a really hard specialty coating applied to the bearing surfaces to provide hardness and durability — or it’s supposed to provide durability. Cory Mittleider: That’s a good point. It’s a coating that’s one to two microns thick — one to two thousandths of a millimeter — and a very hard material. The big feature was that it’s a dissimilar material to the steel. So when we break through the mixed and boundary lubrication regimes and those asperities touch each other, that dissimilar material prevents the welding and tearing that leads to the peeling damage we saw fifteen years ago. That peeling damage eventually turned into spalling, cracking, and other failures. So it made a lot of sense at the time to turn to something like this to mitigate the peeling. Allen Hall: So the peeling damage was one of those issues where you basically had some sliding happening. In my electrical world, and from looking at these on the ground, you see things moving relative to one another instead of rolling relative to one another. Loren Walton: It’s more of a welding and shearing of the contacts. I used a finger analogy last time: think of your asperities as fingers — one set is the roller, one set is the outer raceway. They weld under high load and high pressure, then they shear, leaving behind debris. That’s what creates the beginning of the peeling damage, and then it continues to create more debris, and the bearing starts to basically eat itself alive. Allen Hall: The start of that process, though — is that a lack of lubrication, or a finish or hardness issue on the bearing? Loren Walton: I love that question, because this is the crux of the whole thing, and I think it’s the part that gets missed. People immediately want to throw the whole thing out and start over with something different. Fundamentally, when we fixed the surface issue by adding the coating, the problems pretty much went away. We went from one-to-five years of life to ten-plus years, depending on the application — without changing the construction, the bearing type, or the contact angle. Just by adding the coating, we increased life significantly. The root of what you’re asking is that the bearing would operate better if it had the proper amount of separation. It’s not a fatigue issue and it’s not a loading issue. At its heart, the bearing isn’t able to create that separation. There isn’t enough speed, and there isn’t enough of a gap created by the lubricant. Allen Hall: So ideally you have this almost molecular-scale film of lubricant between the two surfaces. If it isn’t designed properly, or you have an issue, that lubricant gets squeezed out of the space, and at that point you have trouble. That’s some of what I’m hearing on main bearings — especially when turbines have been curtailed and aren’t turning. Is that partly just the fact that there’s so much load? Cory Mittleider: I think that’s a fundamental difficulty of the main shaft bearing. You’ve got extremely variable loads, from full load to idle, and a wide range of operating conditions — from northern North Dakota in the winter to Texas in the heat this week. High load, heavy load, incredibly slow speed, and even slower if it’s idling. It’s hard to reliably build that film. It’s not necessarily that there isn’t enough lubrication; it’s that the film isn’t building properly where it needs to be to separate the metal and the rolling elements. Allen Hall: So the diamond-like coating was meant to solve that welding problem — you put the coated bearing in, and it worked okay until more recently, when all of a sudden we started having other issues. To me those aren’t related to the coating itself, but to other things happening up in the nacelle. Loren Walton: If we recall some of your previous episodes, you were on the forefront of understanding and talking about DLC starting to become an accelerant to failure. I know you talked about it with Cory. Those episodes have aged very well. A lot of people now are recognizing what we were saying years ago and changing their strategy toward removing DLC — whether on bearings for newer turbines, typically two megawatts and greater, or in some cases going backwards and removing DLC as they do additional replacements, and looking for another solution, because there’s potential for additional issues you weren’t expecting by adding the coating. Allen Hall: The coating is non-conductive, which is part of the issue, because you wouldn’t think bearings are conducting electricity. But as turbines got some of these uptower and downtower converters and inverters connected to the generator, we started seeing current levels — according to Motor Doc, where people like Howard Penrose have gone out and measured currents in the nacelles — of well over a hundred amps running through ground straps and the like, into bearings. That’s a lot of current. If you’re shoving that into a bearing that has DLC on it, you’re going to break it down and create these really hard steel bits stuck inside the bearing, which wear it like pouring sand inside a bearing. That’s what eventually happens, and it has nothing to do with the bearing. It has more to do with the electrical and control systems we stuck up top and didn’t pay much attention to, but probably should have. We created an electrical situation, and now all the upkeep comes to people like you to deal with. You haven’t seen a lot of work to eliminate it, although there are a couple of good attempts happening. The reality is: okay, we have to have a bearing, and I’ve got this current going around from the nacelle. How do I put those together in a way that removes the DLC? Cory Mittleider: That’s what we’ve spent the last ten-plus years on. As a bearing supplier, we can’t change the whole system. We have to do the best we can to accommodate what’s happening in your system. We would absolutely encourage you, if you can identify and remove the electricity, please do that. Allen Hall: They should. And there are a lot of people who do. Cory Mittleider: There’s a pursuit of that, absolutely. But the turbine still needs to run. Loren Walton: We work very closely with an owner-operator that did a lot of that work. To your point from before, it does sound like, from what they’ve investigated, the current has been there for a while. It’s been there in different models and different turbines. Maybe the way it presented, or its impact, wasn’t to the same extent as what we’re seeing now. That’s where I’d say there’s more to it than just the current. I think I said last time it’s not just a smoking gun. The bearing is sitting in front of a firing squad. You put it all together and now we’re in a tough position. But to Cory’s point, we get brought the application, we get brought the environment, and we get told, “Here, make it work.” Allen Hall: And you don’t actually see everything that’s happened. You get all the mechanical loads, but they don’t tell you, “Hey, we’re running a hundred amps through this nacelle.” Loren Walton: No, I don’t remember hearing that. Cory Mittleider: No, that’s not usually disclosed. Allen Hall: No one’s ever said that. So that’s a real troubling thing happening in the industry — we’re assigning blame to mechanical components when really it’s an electrical mistake. When you dig into it, what you find is that currents have been running up top for years, but what’s changed now is that with more focus on emissions from inverters, they’ve pushed things into higher frequencies. Higher frequency bands are harder to ground out and get rid of. When things were in the kilohertz range, we could partly ground them and they’d go away. Now we’re working at ten kilohertz and up, and that energy distributes into a lot of places, including the bearings, where it wasn’t before. That’s really hard to deal with. Some electrical designer sitting in a remote location, probably in Germany, designs the circuit, and now you bearing gurus have to go fix it. Cory Mittleider: And that system’s probably well optimized for that particular package. Allen Hall: For that particular package, right. It meets all the requirements and does everything they wanted — except for the effect on the bearings. Loren Walton: You solve one problem and move it to another. That’s ultimately how it works. Allen Hall: If you’re an electrical engineer, you’d never have thought you were destroying the bearings. The industry has moved quite quickly, though. Everybody started noticing this problem with DLC. They went out to check and figure out what the problem was, and, more importantly, to find a solution. Those solutions are unique, because the reason DLC went on in the first place was to extend lifetime. So if you’re taking the DLC out of the equation, can you still get to those lifetime numbers without it? Loren Walton: Yeah, and that’s where our message has been that adjusting the material will get you the difference you’re looking for. I want to be very clear: I’m not saying DLC as a solution is bad. When it was applied in the right space — turbines with a lighter duty — it worked great. But once you add in additional factors, it becomes an accelerant to failure at certain points. So it definitely still has its place. But once you move away from DLC, you’re going to be right back where you started — regardless of construction — with the life that was always aided by DLC. Once you’ve removed it, you have to know for sure you’re not going right back to the peeling layers and the spalling you were seeing. From what we’ve investigated, the material changes are where you get that. Having a harder surface combats it, and having a better way to combat any additional debris introduced into the system helps. Allen Hall: And reducing the possibility of generating that debris. Loren Walton: Correct. Allen Hall: So what does that mean in terms of bearing design — different alloys, different heat treats, different coatings? Loren Walton: The first two, not the third. From the recipe of the steel, adjusting some of the alloying elements, there’s a lot you can do. A lot of people think of engineering mostly through the mechanics of it, but one part of mechanical engineering that doesn’t get talked about is material science. That’s the part we dive into extremely deeply, and it gives you the biggest bang for your buck when you’re moving away from a coating as your — I don’t want to call it a crutch, but as the thing helping you get by — toward changing the bearing from the inside so it lasts better once the coating is gone. Cory Mittleider: I like describing it as being baked into the cake. It’s not a nice thing added afterward like a coating that’s one to two microns thick. It is the bearing. Allen Hall: It’s hard to think about steel and a lot of the metals used in the bearing industry as unique chemistries, but they are. There are a lot of varieties of steel, just like there are a lot of varieties of copper or aluminum. Loren Walton: Yes. Allen Hall: You’d think steel is just steel — we make cars out of it, airplanes, whatever. Loren Walton: I was talking to someone who’s more into gears, and even when I spoke of a carbon-nitride version of a bearing versus a carbon-nitride version of a gear, it’s not exactly the same. For all intents and purposes it’s easier for everyone to consider it as steel — one word, means the same thing. But once you get into how much chromium is in it, how much molybdenum, how much manganese — Allen Hall: It comes down to that, and it can be very small percentages of the total. Loren Walton: It can make a huge difference. And then you get into the heat treat — your time, your soaking, what you do for quenching. It all matters, and everyone does it differently, so you get different results. Allen Hall: That’s the kicker. You see a lot of discussions where it’s just, “Oh, it’s been heat treated.” As an electrical engineer I used to see it that way too. But there’s heat treatment and there’s heat treatment. It depends on what you’re doing and what the result needs to be, because you’re changing the whole crystalline structure of the steel. The way you do it and the way you quench it all matters. It’s not one size fits all. Loren Walton: That’s the part that gets glossed over so quickly, because everyone’s eyes go to what they can see. You change an angle here or there, or the bearing type, and you can see that. It’s different when you don’t have X-ray vision to tell you where all the alloying elements are and in what percentages, and then whether you carburized it, through-hardened it, or carbonitrided it. There’s so much to it that I can see people’s heads start to spin. That’s where we say there are a lot of experts out here — you two are among them, and there are others. Engage in conversations. Ask questions. Allen Hall: That’s a great call to action — “Cory, help me understand what’s going on.” There’s a variety of bearings out there. Loren’s with NSK, a great bearing company with tremendous history. Those are a couple you can trust. But operators can feel inundated by the guy down the street trying to sell them a bearing, and you don’t know if that’s the right solution for your two-million-dollar wind turbine. Cory Mittleider: These are critical infrastructure assets. Let’s make sure we understand what we’re doing and why. To Loren’s point, you can open three boxes and they all look the same, but what’s inside is what really matters. Allen Hall: It’s a tremendously difficult business. With as many main bearings getting swapped out today, over the last couple of years there have been a lot of decisions made on the fly — some correct, some really wrong. Loren Walton: I’d hesitate to say wrong, because I think people are doing the best they can. It’s not because they’re not trying. Allen Hall: It’s because they don’t have the knowledge in front of them, or maybe they haven’t made the call to Malloy or NSK yet to get the ground truth. Loren Walton: What you mentioned a second ago is pivotal. There’s been enough selling that we’ve kind of gotten away from the engineering. People hear “sales engineer” and they cut off at “sales.” If we can get back to the engineering, a lot more people will improve their assets. And it doesn’t have to be just listening to Cory and me — poll the audience. There are a lot of us out here. Everybody has a different background; we all know a little about this or a lot about that. Take the opportunity to learn. I’d liken it to your personal life: you wouldn’t buy a new vehicle or a stereo system without doing your own research. You wouldn’t just listen to the salesperson and buy the first thing you see. It’s the same here. If you’re making decisions without engaging at least the top three to five people in this space, you’re doing yourself a disservice. Allen Hall: And that’s what happens a lot, because people get pushed. There’s a timeline, especially now with the repower situation — “I’ve got to put something on now.” Cory Mittleider: Right. And new platforms — the next-generation three, four, five, six megawatt platforms, and offshore — are having their first failures. We need to learn from it. That’s where we’ve worked with operators to participate in the teardown and collect the sample. We get clues, we mark it up, and we do a lot of the investigation — metallurgy, metrology, raceway traces — to inform us on what the problem is on that specific platform. Allen Hall: As we get to these bigger turbines, some data is coming back on O&M costs relative to a one or two megawatt machine, and it doesn’t scale linearly. It goes almost exponentially, because everything is more expensive. Replacing a bearing on a six megawatt machine is a much more expensive ordeal than on a two megawatt machine. What should we be paying attention to and monitoring more closely on these larger machines? The new shiny turbine is great, but that doesn’t mean you don’t have to monitor and maintain it. Loren Walton: I’d start with verifying all your original fits and clearances. We’ve had cases with a four-point mount main shaft — two main bearings — where one side wasn’t installed properly from the beginning, so it didn’t actually float. It’s supposed to be a fixed side and a floating side; now you’ve got one side that’s not floating, and you get overload. So make sure you’re set from the start. A lot of machines now come already outfitted with instrumentation — vibration monitoring, oil monitoring, different ways to start trending from the beginning. Back when we got started, that wasn’t the case. You got your new turbine and in a lot of cases it had nothing on it — you were flying blind. Now that it’s there, use it. Cory Mittleider: That’s a good point. Specifically to bearings, something earlier versions didn’t have, and newer ones mostly do, is auto-lubers. Allen Hall: I see more of those lately. Cory Mittleider: That’s great from a lubrication-delivery and reliability point of view, but it’s its own little machine. We’ve heard of cases where the auto-luber failed, or ran when it shouldn’t have, or for whatever reason had very large output. So you need regular assessment of the entire system, including uptower. Allen Hall: You’ve got to monitor everything that’s uptower. Cory Mittleider: It’s its own little machine. It requires its own maintenance. If you’re relying on it, you’ve got to check it. Allen Hall: As we move into these larger machines and see more of them deployed, what are the useful things you should be doing in that first year to make sure your bearing is working optimally? Is it just checking vibration levels? Is it getting uptower and doing a quick sweep to confirm the grease isn’t oozing out where it shouldn’t be? Is it that simple? Loren Walton: Having a regular maintenance interval definitely helps. Even getting grease sampling to understand your baseline levels after the first six months and the first year. In a lot of cases the turbines are under a couple-year warranty, so maybe you don’t have as much access. But as much as you can, getting a baseline is huge, because you’re going to want to compare later. You’ll want to say, “Okay, I took this grease sample — what does it mean? Does it normally run that high or not?” Same for vibration, getting the trending. For main bearings in general, more grease is better than less, because you can never quite get it all out when you’re regreasing. So a lot of that first year or two is about getting a good baseline so you know what you’re actually expecting, and what it means when you take a reading in year two or three. Allen Hall: What does a grease sample look like in terms of the response you get back? I take a sample, send it to a lab, and it comes back with — what? Is it “good or bad,” or a bunch of chemical numbers about composition and dirt? I’ve never seen one. Cory Mittleider: It’s a matrix. You can request different versions, but probably ten or fifteen different elements they give you numbers on, in parts per million. Iron and brass will be up there. Allen Hall: So if you see something floating in the grease — Cory Mittleider: Silicon, phosphorus, water. Allen Hall: Water would not be great. Cory Mittleider: No. Allen Hall: So those reports come back, and I assume there’s more knowledge needed to interpret the results. What do you do? Loren Walton: We have some guidelines we share with our partners and customers. If you see a certain amount of parts per million of copper, ferrous material, or the like, we can say, “That’s worth monitoring for a while,” or “You should probably purge it, try to get it out, and see if it stabilizes.” We get those questions and respond in kind. There’s definitely help available. If we work together, we typically have a lot more success. A lot of people right now feel like they’re trying to work in their own silos, and you don’t have to do that. You don’t have to be the subject-matter expert for lubricants, gears, bearings, and everything else. You can reach out to experts who can help, and hopefully that frees up your time to assess and work on other things. Allen Hall: The turbines are so complex today. It used to be you could have one person on site who knew most of what was going wrong, because they’d made thousands of these things — there was a legacy. When you get to six megawatt machines, where you don’t have a lot of history, particularly in the United States, there’s really no one to ask. You’d better find somebody who knows what they’re talking about. Cory Mittleider: And the operators are responsible for multiple systems — six or seven or eight systems they’re looking at. We can help with bearings; we’re niche and focused on that. If we can take that off your plate, now instead of six systems you’ve got five to worry about. Allen Hall: That’s key. There are experts out there, and one thing the podcast is trying to do is give those experts a chance to talk so you know who to ask. Your phones should be ringing right about now, because it’s repower time, and it’s main-bearing repair and replace time, pitch-bearing repair and replace time. There’s a lot of bearing activity going on. I always say call Malloy Wind if you need somebody who really knows their stuff, the technology, and what’s going on internally. How do people get ahold of you two if they have questions? What’s the easiest way? Loren Walton: I try to be at most of the industry events. We usually hold a booth. And my email, my phone number — I’m on LinkedIn, so reach out there. After our last discussion I had a few folks reach out, actually mostly from other countries. It was interesting; we heard about a few issues before they even hit the US. Some folks were having problems with the larger turbines, and we were able to get our teams in Brazil and Spain involved right away. Then once it started cropping up in the US, I could say, “Yeah, I already solved that.” We can put my email in the show notes. Allen Hall: We’ll put it in the show notes for sure. And Cory, how do people get ahold of you? Cory Mittleider: I’m pretty active at the events — ACP, and the Drivetrain Reliability Collaborative is another one we had a couple of months ago. Email, phone, and I’m pretty active on LinkedIn. I’ve had similar experiences to Loren, getting contacted from other countries across the globe. It’s fun to investigate problems and share results in the technical articles on our website, and have people send me a picture of an article I wrote and say, “Hey, let’s talk about this.” Allen Hall: Your articles are great. Check out malloywind.com — just Google it and it’ll come right to the top. If you have bearing questions or something you’ve seen, that website is a great first place to get some answers. It’s very helpful. Well, Loren and Cory, I love having you on the podcast. We need to have you on more, because there’s a lot going on in the bearing world. Loren Walton: There are things we didn’t even touch on today. Allen Hall: You’re always welcome back. Loren Walton: Awesome. Appreciate it. Allen Hall: Thank you.

In today's Daily Fix:A report from ZDNet says Nintendo is already considering a Switch 2 OLED model, but is hesitant over the price. An OLED panel would be an improvement over the current Switch 2's LCD screen, but would cost more. The ongoing hardware component crisis is also a factor, which has forced Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft to raise prices on their current-gen consoles post-launch. In other news, fans may have criticized Ubisoft for their DLC plans for Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced, but that didn't stop gamers from buying them. The company has made an extra $1 million on Steam from sales of the game's DLC items. And in related news, hundreds of employees across several studios are being laid off, including those at Ubisoft's support studio in Barcelona, which had worked on Black Flag Resynced.

Deze aflevering van Gamekings Daily is ook te bekijken op https://youtu.be/uMEoyj81D0g Welkom bij Gamekings Daily. De gaming vodcast waarin twee hosts van Gamekings kwebbelen over de laatste ontwikkelingen in de wereld die videogames heet. Het is vandaag dinsdag en Skate neemt net als op maandag plaats achter de microfoon. Samen met JJ bespreekt hij de laatste ontwikkelingen binnen de videogame-industrie. Zo blijft de Assassin’s Creed serie een flinke bak duiten binnenbrengen voor Ubisoft. Van de serie zijn inmiddels ruim 250 miljoen spellen verkocht. Ze nemen daarmee de nummer 8 positie in binnen de top 10 best verkochte franchises aller tijden. JJ en Skate proberen het geheim achter het succes van de Franse serie te verklaren. Dit onderwerp en andere topics zie en hoor je voorbij komen in de Gamekings Daily van dinsdag 14 juli 2026. Assassin’s Creed franchise marcheert voorbij de 250 miljoen verkochte exemplaren Andere onderwerpen die in deze editie van GK Daily voorbij komen, zijn de roep van de fans om nieuwe DLC voor Cyberpunk 2077 nu de game recentelijk een boost in het aantal spelers heeft gekregen. Immers, als CD Projekt Red na ruim tien jaar met nieuwe content voor The Witcher 3 kan komen, waarom dan niet ook voor Cyberpunk 2077? En Sony Santa Monica laat weten of er een diskversie komt van God of War Laufey. Scoor 15% korting op alle laptops van Lenovo met code GAMEKINGS Lenovo is de vaste partner van Gamekings Daily.

Voor Doom: The Dark Ages is nu DLC genaamd Revelations, een toevoeging waarin je letterlijk in de vrieskou onder de hel belandt. Is deze uitbreiding op één van de beste games van vorig jaar de moeite waard? Jochem Visser heeft het gespeeld en bespreekt het voor je met Joe van Burik in deze Mini-Game-aflevering van All in the Game. Vragen of opmerkingen? Mail ons! Op allinthegame@bnr.nl Over All in the GameAll in the Game is de podcast over games voor iedereen. Wanneer er iets speelt in de wereld van games, hoor je dat hier: spannende ontwikkelingen, boeiende onderzoeken en natuurlijk de nieuwste releases om te spelen op je PlayStation, Xbox, pc of welk platform dan ook. Onder leiding van BNR's techredacteur Joe van Burik hoor je gesprekken met andere gamekenners, zoals beursnerd Jochem Visser, techredacteurs Niels Kooloos en Daniël Mol én popcultuurkenners Donner Bakker en Sam van Zuilen. Ook hoogleraar computerwetenschappen Felienne Hermans en universiteit docent Laura van der Lubbe schuiven geregeld aan, en je hoort bijdragen van audioproducers André Dortmont, Ivo Klokman en Jeanne Heeremans. Elke week zijn er minimaal twee afleveringen van All in the Game. Of nog meer, wanneer er veel speelt in de wereld van games. Soms met impressies en analyses over actuele ontwikkelingen en nieuwe games. Andere keren kun je luisteren naar interviews met makers van bijzondere games, van Grand Theft Auto (GTA) tot Baldur's Gate 3 - zowel Nederlandse als internationale ontwikkelaars. Of we praten met e-sport-atleten, onderzoekers en andere experts in de wereld van videogames. In deze podcast kijken we verder dan alleen wat een game leuk maakt: we bespreken juist ook in de culturele, maatschappelijke, economische en technologische impact ervan. Jaarlijks gaat er immers zo'n 200 miljard euro om in de wereldwijde game-industrie, dat is al (vele jaren zelfs) daadwerkelijk meer dan de muziek- en filmindustrie bij elkaar opgeteld. Zo hoor je bij All in the Game niet alleen wat je moet spelen - en op welk nieuwe (game)platform - maar kun je daar nog bewuster mee bezig zijn, over praten en natuurlijk van genieten. Of het nou gaat om Super Mario of Sonic the Hedgehog, Fortnite of Roblox, voetbalgames van EA Sports FC of de FIFA, Call of Duty of Battlefield, League of Legends of Dota,of goude oude titels zoals Tetris, Rollercoaster Tycoon, The Sims of zelfs Snake. En we hebben ook aandacht voor liefhebberijen die dicht op games zitten, zoals Dungeons & Dragons, Lego en de films, series en strips rond reeksen zoals Star Wars en Marvel. Het komt allemaal aan bod in All in the Game. All in the Game werd als podcast al in 2022 opgenomen in het archief van Het Nederlands instituut voor Beeld & Geluid in Hilversum - als eerste podcast van BNR Nieuwsradio en één van de eerste gamepodcasts van allemaal. Gezamenlijk met talloze Nederlandse televisieprogramma’s, radioshows, games, websites, webvideo’s en podcast vormt dit materiaal de Nederlandse mediageschiedenis. Over Joe van BurikJoe van Burik is presentator, podcastmaker en techredacteur bij BNR Nieuwsradio. Je hoort hem bijna dagelijks in de Tech Update met het laatste nieuws over digitale technologie, en gaat daar in De Grote Tech Show (samen met Ben van der Burg) elke woensdag dieper op in met gasten uit de techwereld. Daarnaast maakt hij onder meer de podcast All in the Game, voor iedereen die meer wil horen over videogames.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On this episode of Random Encounter, we're chatting about new DLC for a game that spent over a decade in development, and another title that feels like it should have been released a decade ago.First up, Audra is here to chat about Endless Ragnarok, the new DLC for the action RPG Granblue Fantasy: Relink. The base game was our "returning champion" on our most anticipated list from 2020 through 2024, and was warmly received upon release. This new expansion adds a wealth of content and gameplay that might just reignite interest in the title.Next, Zek joins us to discuss Echoes of Aincrad, a new entry in the long-running Sword Art Online series. Based on the anime, this standalone title clearly hopes to recapture the feeling of the earliest games in the series by allowing you to create a brand-new character and introducing a fresh supporting cast. The problem is that the game feels like a subpar relic of an older RPG generation. Even as a PS3-era release, it would still fall short. Is there anything here to redeem it? Featuring: Jono Logan, Audra Bowling, and Zek Lu; Edited by Jono LoganGet in Touch:RPGFan.comRPGFan ShopEmail us: podcast@rpgfan.comTwitter: @rpgfancomBluesky: @rpgfan.bsky.socialInstagram: @rpgfancomThreads: @rpgfancomFacebook: rpgfancomTwitch: rpgfancomThis Episode's Related Links:Granblue Fantasy Relink: Endless RagnarokGranblue Fantasy Relink ReviewSword Art Online - Hollow Fragment- ReviewEchoes of Aincrad Review

Speaking of expanding the player base, we react to the massive announcement that DayZ is officially making its way to the Nintendo Switch 2 this year, breaking down the outsourced port, the lack of crossplay, and whether gyro controls can actually work in a hardcore tactical simulator.Finally, we close out the episode with some massive channel news—Andy and Dave are officially taking over the DayZ Community Spotlight! We share our excitement, what this means for our show, and how we plan to use the platform to elevate the absolute best creators and stories in the community.Your ultimate destination for staying alive in the world's most brutal multiplayer sandbox.

It seems that no matter where one looks in the gaming industry, there's bad news on the horizon. Such is certainly the case with Sony, as the Japanese company announced two pieces of bad news concurrent to one another: That beginning in 2028, PlayStation hardware will no longer receive disc-based releases, and that by next summer, you will no longer be able to buy digital PS3 and Vita games. All things considered, the latter is a more understandable decision (after all, Sony tried to do this back in 2021 before pulling back), but the former situation has set the PlayStation fanbase alight in a way we've not seen since perhaps 2011, if not 2006, both extremely ominous years in the brand's history. We discuss both topics in great detail, incorporate a ton of your inquiries, and try to make sense of what's happening from every conceivable angle. There's other news this week, too, including Sony's stance on hardware subsidies, PlayStation's continuing commitment to the games-as-a-service sector, new roster additions for Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! Is Exodus' scrapping of its in-game character creator a sign of things to come? Why are some publishers and developers so secretive with sales figures? What potential ideas could emulate the interplay between EVE Online and Dust-514? Did Dustin answer the Dustin-signal that Colin sent into the atmospheric ether?

De gaming vodcast waarin twee presentatoren van Gamekings praten over de laatste ontwikkelingen in de wereld die videogames heet. Vandaag is het maandag, het begin van de week en Jelle is aangeschoven om samen met JJ het nieuws van de afgelopen dagen door te nemen. Zo hebben de twee het over de verwachte bijltjesdag bij XBOX en de 40 miljoen kopieën die er inmiddels van Cyberpunk 2077 zijn gesleten. Hebben we hier te maken met de grootste comeback uit de gameshistorie? Of is dat overdreven? Hoe kan het dat een grote game als Cyberpunk 2077 niet in de buurt kan komen van de aantallen van GTA 6? De antwoorden op beide vragen krijg je in de Gamekings Daily van maandag 6 juli 2026. 3200 mensen weg bij XBOX, 4 studio's afgestoten JJ kreeg onlangs een presentatie over de DLC van DOOM: The Dark Ages.

Hello one and all, and welcome back to another episode of Trophy Talk! In this month's installment Colin and Josh dig deep into the recent news stories that have been plaguing not only PlayStation, but the gaming industry at large. Indeed, with bad news story, after bad news story, it's hard to feel optimistic about the hobby that we all know and love so much. While there are many available tendrils to pull on here, the boys settle in around the PS3 storefront closure, and the 2028 impending death of physical games on PlayStation. There are so many areas to dig into here, so many reasons to be upset (or not to be upset), that the conversation naturally is a bit all over the place. Regardless, after the dust settles do either of the aforementioned stories actually prompt us to reconsider if Sony and the PlayStation is our gaming home? Of course as per the typical run of the show we also take time to highlight some impressive and noteworthy Platinum's earned by our community, touch on our favorite trophies we've personally earned in the last month, and touch on what we've been playing. Much like Zac (the recordkeeper) before him, Saros has its hooks in Josh and we spend a good deal of time discussing the mechanics of the game and how it reminds us of more recent titles like Doom: The Dark Ages. Additionally, Josh takes some time away from the bullet hell genre to go and kick some ass in Marvel: Cosmic Invasion. It turns out the title may not have received as much praise as it should have! Colin on the other hand, in anticipation of Doom's DLC on July 7th, and Halo: Campaign evolved at month's end, has gone for a more chill trophy hunting experience in 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim. While the game may not be difficult, it boasts 13 main protagonists and characters, a time traveling Sci-Fi story, and some truly beautiful imagery. Has Colin gone full weeb? Well maybe not full, but after how much he disliked the Survival-Crafting genre after giving Grounded a try, he just had to try something different. Thank you all for listening, and be excellent to each other.

¡Apoya Reconectados, decide y participa en todos los sorteos! ✅ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/reconectados Tal vez, uno de los programas más tristes sobre videojuegos que hemos hecho nunca, y también de los más importantes. PlayStation ha decidido terminar con sus juegos en formato físico. El anuncio se ha producido a través de una nota de prensa que ha pillado a todo el mundo por sorpresa, incluidas, seguramente, divisiones periféricas de la compañía alrededor de todo el mundo. Tras el anuncio de que Rockstar no iba a sacar GTA VI en disco en las cajas, PlayStation decide que a partir de enero de 2028 dejará de ofrecer videojuegos en disco, aunque todavía se podrán adquirir sus títulos en las tiendas en una manera caja de plástico vacía con un código de descarga en su interior. Con esta decisión, PlayStation encabeza el fin del formato físico tradicional y priva a sus jugadores de elegir, también con PS6 que vendrá sin lector, cómo, de qué manera, en qué tienda y a qué precio comprar sus videojuegos. Y Xbox no se queda corta estos días tampoco, a los tan probables cierres de Double Fine, Ninja Theory o Compulsion Games, ahora se suma el estudio de Dishonored, Prey y el nuevo Marvel's Blade, los franceses Arkane Studios, también en la cuerda floja junto a muchos otros que os comentamos.

WATCH ▶️ ⁠Watch this episode on YouTube⁠ ***   EPISODE DESCRIPTION In this episode, I'm joined by Jewels Ferris   Jewels is a top producing mortgage broker from Kelowna, BC, who's not only helped over 1,000 families since becoming a broker in 2014, but also broke the $100M in yearly mortgage volume barrier. In her 12 years as a broker, she has earned industry accolades like the DLC Master Award and the CME Titan Award with DLC, the Chairperson's Club Award with Verico, and been named one of the top mortgage brokers in Kelowna five years in a row by Best of Kelowna.   Jewels was working at a restaurant in 2014 when broker Daryl French spotted her potential and brought her into his brokerage. By volunteering as an underwriter for a top producer, she compressed years of learning into months, eventually inheriting Scott Peckford's $40 million book of business just two and a half years in. After hiring key team members, she then grew to over $100M in annual mortgage volume.   On the surface, building a $100M book of business looks like a dream, but the reality included severe burnout, intense stress, and lost personal passion. Four years ago, Jewels hit her breaking point. She packed up her house, put it in storage, and took off on vacation.   Today, Jewels defines success by peace and client fulfillment rather than just raw volume, and learned how to rebuild her business, her boundaries, and herself.   Jewels is here to discuss:   → How she got started in the industry, underwriting for other brokers, and taking over Scott Peckford's book.   → What happened when she hit $100M, the final straw, and dealing with burn out.   → What she has changed in the past 4 years - saying "no", setting boundaries, and not chasing files.   → Redefining purpose and success, releasing control and allowing yourself to be human, and building good karma.   → How Jewels handles files that go sideways and advice for these challenging times in our industry. ***

Can't blame a Kong for podcasting. Welcome back to the podcast! Today, we're going to be talking about Donkey Kong Bananza, the first 3D Donkey Kong game in almost 30 years and a launch title for the Switch 2. The main thrust behind Bananza is that it's a collectathon platformer not dissimilar to Mario Odyssey, but with the ability to heavily interact with the terrain. This means punching through the walls and floors, grabbing projectiles out of the ground, and through this making your own paths through the levels. It has the launch title energy of trying to show off the new hardware, and the terrain deformation effects combined with the generally improved graphical fidelity does a pretty good job of it. The game also fills the levels with unique gimmicks and prescribed challenge areas, and also features an endgame and a DLC with even more content so it isn't short on things to do if you want sink like a hundred or more hours into it. Personally, just seeing the credits took long enough for me, though I wouldn't describe the main story as having too much filler. Altogether this feels like a worthy game for the (admittedly now year old) new console. We're going to be talking about the game's pacing and how we each found our flow through the levels, Bananza transformations and how they play, and how no one cares about your dog unless you're a famous game developer. Thank you for joining us again this week! It may seem like a typical us move to not talk about a big tentpole release until a year after it came out, and it is. Whoops. I am glad to have finally gotten to play it, partially because it justifies the purchase of a Switch 2 I made earlier this year, but also because the game is actually quite good. How did your opinion of the game differ from that of the trailer, if that was an experience you had? Let us know in the comments or over on our Discord server! Next time, we're going to be talking about Perfect Tides: Station to Station, the sequel to the point and click adventure game we played a couple years ago, so we hope you'll join us then.

The market has evolved. The questions are just as relevant. A Retail Retold Replay looking back at retail in 2024.We're throwing it back to ICSC 2024 with James Cook, Americas Director of Retail Research at JLL and host of the Where We Buy podcast.From the DLC booth in Las Vegas, James and Chris Ressa shared a quick and impactful conversation on the trends shaping retail real estate, from the continued strength of open-air centers to the challenges created by historically low vacancy. While leasing activity has slowed, Cook explains why that's more a reflection of limited supply than weakening demand, and why he remains optimistic about the health of retailers and the consumer.The conversation also explores where artificial intelligence could have the biggest impact on the industry. As AI tools become more sophisticated, the opportunity isn't a lack of technology. It's finding ways to apply it to an industry built on private data, complex lease structures, and physical assets.They also touch on one of retail's more unexpected growth stories: celebrity-backed restaurants. Based on JLL's research, Cook shares why these concepts have surged in recent years and what that says about today's increasingly competitive restaurant landscape.Whether you're catching this conversation for the first time or giving it another listen, this throwback to ICSC 2024 is a fast, insightful look at the ideas that continue to shape retail real estate today.What You'll HearWhy James Cook remains optimistic about retail despite higher interest rates and economic uncertaintyHow historically low vacancy is changing the retail leasing landscapeWhy slower leasing activity doesn't necessarily signal weaker retailer demandWhere artificial intelligence has the greatest potential in retail real estateThe biggest challenge preventing AI from transforming the industry overnightWhy celebrity-backed restaurant concepts have exploded in recent yearsWhat JLL's research reveals about the connection between branding and restaurant expansionHow today's retail trends compare to the expectations coming out of 2024Chapters00:00 – Welcome to the replayJames Cook introduces his role leading retail research at JLL.00:21 – Why James is optimistic about retailConsumer demand and retailer expansion continue to support the market.01:12 – The headwinds facing leasingLower absorption, limited vacancy, and what the numbers really mean.01:43 – Would more available space lease quickly?Chris and James discuss how different types of vacancies would perform.02:19 – Can AI transform retail real estate?The promise of artificial intelligence meets the realities of the industry.03:36 – Why real estate is differentPhysical assets, fragmented data, and why AI adoption won't be straightforward.04:19 – The rise of celebrity-backed restaurantsJames shares surprising research on one of retail's fastest-growing concepts.05:51 – Retail, restaurants, and final thoughtsFavorite dining recommendations, industry research, and closing reflections.

The hype train for DayZ's upcoming desert expansion is officially moving, but is Bohemia Interactive on track or headed for a derailment? This week, Andy and Dave dive into the upcoming DayZ Badlands DLC and focus entirely on how BI needs to engage with content creators and the community to make this launch a success.We look back at the Frostline release on Sakhal to analyze what worked and what didn't. Are the developers at risk of making the classic mistake of overhyping the terrain too early, leaving players burnt out by the time we actually get to drop into Nasdara? We debate the best ways to keep the community engaged without spoiling the mystery of the new map's extreme heat mechanics and scarce water resources.We also tackle the controversial topic of key distribution. Instead of just handing early access keys exclusively to massive streamers, we pitch a better alternative: Could an in-game, cross-platform treasure hunt be a fairer, more exciting way to distribute beta keys to the wider community? From marketing strategies to creator engagement, we break down exactly how BI can ensure the biggest map in official DayZ history gets the launch it deserves.Welcome to your central hub for everything related to the unforgiving universe of DayZ. We are here to guide you through the shifting metas, tactics, and survival strategies required to stay alive. Whether you're a fresh-faced fresh spawn searching for a DayZ beginner guide, or a hardcore veteran player looking for elite PVP tips, base building meta updates, or breaking DayZ news, our content has you covered.What you'll find on our channel:

This episode of Double Tap is brought to you by: Rost Martin (Code: WLSISLIFE) Night Fision (Code: WLSISLIFE) Blue Alpha Bowers Group (Code: WLS) Text Dear WLS or Reviews +1 743 500 2171 Public   Show Titles   GOA GOALS Aug 1-2 in Iowa. https://goals.goa.org/ JUNE 20th, 2026 GunCon.net Tickets on sale now. Use code AGENCY171 DEAR WLS Question from Savage's Hair Stylist from PA I was a member of a local firearms forum that is shutting down. I bought and sold guns and gear through that forum locally with good success (mostly in-person meetings, not shipping). Since its closing I recently joined GAFS Hub at Nicks suggestion. What is the “standard procedure” for GAFS Hub, TAC Swap, etc? I see that some people hand write the date on a piece of paper next to the item for sale. What are the expectations for shipping and payment? Paid in full or partial before shipping? Paypal friends and family? Im interested in participating but want to understand how it works first.Thanks, Savage's Hair Stylist Question from Agent J Freedom from Illinois Have you heard of these people? I have purchased two completed uppers from them and they run great. Prices are very fair. Just thought I'd share. Home Agent J Freedom Question from Bill T from Texas Bill TI am looking into building a AR-9. Would you rather a Glock style mag adapter ( I don't have a Glock) or the Exomags from Mean Arms? I already had the lower. Thanks Question from Zachary V from MI Hey guys with all the misinformation and misinformed masses out there where do you go to find verifiable information about guns and accessories? I used to have a couple of places where I knew the information was vetted but they all went away. Reddit is a cesspool and Facebook groups are full of boomer fudds. How do you vet a new source for information?Thanks Zachary V Question from Rob K from Connecticut Rob KDear WLS Hey guys this question is mainly for Shawn. I'm interested in getting Pew-locker for my collection and ammo stocks. I was wondering how the ammo part of the site worked? I have close to 20 different calibers in my collection, and almost 4 dozen different types of brand names, bullet types, grains, steel, brass, copper washed, corrosive and non-corrosive. Does it know how many rounds to a box? Does Pew-locker track all of these things and have the ability to subtract when using ammo, then assign it to the gun I used it through? Thanks guys keep up the great work!!!! #WLS is life!!!

"Rehypothecation is cryptographically impossible." Martin Matejka joins the show to break down the rise of Bitcoin-native lending, Firefish's 3-of-3 multisig + DLC architecture, and why the February 6 stress test was the day Bitcoin-backed credit grew up. We discuss why rehypothecation can be engineered out rather than promised away, how Firefish thinks about LTV, margin-call cadence, and the three warnings before liquidation, and why $160 million in non-custodial loans across 27,000 users in 70 countries is the proof a Bitcoin-native lender can scale.

What happens when experience becomes perspective?Every year, thousands of retail real estate professionals descend on Las Vegas looking for answers.Where are rents headed? Who's expanding? What's the next opportunity? Which relationships will create the next great deal?But before the meetings begin and before the convention floor opens, there's a more important question worth asking:What actually separates the people and companies that consistently outperform everyone else?Recorded on the eve of ICSC Las Vegas, this special Retail Retold conversation flips the script. Adam Ifshin steps into the host chair and turns the microphone on Chris Ressa, creating a rare opportunity to go beyond the public persona and explore the experiences, decisions, and leadership lessons that shaped his career.Together, they unpack everything from career-defining pivots and hard-earned management lessons to navigating uncertainty, building high-performing teams, and leading through pressure.

Supply remains constrained. Retailers continue to adapt. Landlords are operating from a position of strength.
