Welcome to another episode of the Geek Freaks Podcast! In this session, hosts Frank and Jonathan dive deep into the psychology of fictional resistance, analyze the gritty evolution of a fan-favorite Sith, and discuss why the upcoming He-Man movie is embracing its vibrant roots. Episode Summary Are we living in an Empire? Frank and Jonathan kick off the show by questioning our fascination with fictional rebellions. From the underground movements in The Handmaid's Tale and Star Trek to the reality-shattering resistance of The Matrix, we break down which groups actually stand a chance. We also provide a full reaction to the Maul: Shadow Lord trailer, exploring Dave Filoni's darker shift in Star Wars animation. Finally, we look at the meta-fantasy world of the new Masters of the Universe film and share our latest HBO watchlist recommendations including Hacks and The Pit. Timestamps and Topics 00:00:00 – Intro, Question of the Week: Rebels in fiction we cheer for . 00:04:23 – Quick real-life check-in and keeping it together through a stressful news cycle . 00:05:08 – Star Wars: Maul: Shadow Lord trailer reaction and what the POV shift could mean . 00:11:13 – Masters of the Universe trailer talk, Jared Leto as Skeletor, tone, and first impressions . 00:16:29 – God of War series update: Cast talk, what fans should expect, and where the show could land. 00:22:05 – Fable showcase reaction: Humor, vibe, and why this reboot could work. 00:26:48 – Marvel's Wonder Man spotlight: Who he is, why he matters, and what the show might be going for. 00:39:58 – Release-week plan for Wonder Man and quick network updates. 00:42:48 – Weekly recommendations: Starfleet Academy, Hacks, and The Pit. 00:45:06 – Wrap-up. Key Takeaways Effective Rebellion: Jonathan argues that "The Dawn" from The Handmaid's Tale is a superior rebel group due to their infiltration tactics, whereas the Maquis were too easily dismantled. The Maul Evolution: The upcoming Shadow Lord series aims for a darker, "Rated R" feel, focusing on Maul's pursuit of freedom through the criminal underworld rather than the Jedi/Sith binary. Critique of the Jedi: The hosts discuss how the Jedi Order often pursued "control" under the guise of "balance," making Maul's perspective more relatable to some viewers. Embracing the Vibrant: Unlike many "dark and gritty" reboots, the new Masters of the Universe is leaning into the colorful, fun, and meta aspects of the original 80s property. Memorable Quotes "When did we vote for the Empire? Why did we end up this way?" – Frank "The Dawn... they are so well embedded. They're very sneaky." – Jonathan "The Jedi Order is not perfect either... the balance they were pursuing was not balance. It was control." – Jonathan "Justice comes at the tip of a lightsaber." – Frank Call to Action If you enjoyed this deep dive, please subscribe and leave us a review on your favorite podcast platform!

In this episode of the Game Deflators Podcast, John and Ryan dive into a packed week of gaming chatter. They kick things off with their latest pickups and what's been spinning in their consoles, including early impressions of the charming new adventure Plucky Squire. The conversation heats up as they break down the Xbox Developer Direct 2026, spotlighting standout announcements and examining how Ubisoft's recent wave of project cancellations could reshape the industry. Amid the news roundup, the duo tackles one of the week's biggest talking points: rumors that the PlayStation 6 may launch as a hybrid console, blending traditional power with portable flexibility. They explore what this could mean for Sony's strategy and how it might shift the competitive landscape. To wrap things up, John and Ryan jump into a deep-dive inflation–deflation challenge featuring Final Fantasy XIII, dissecting its combat, visuals, legacy, and whether its current market value holds up today. 00:00 Introduction to the Game Deflators Podcast 01:54 Game Pickups and Current Playthroughs 05:20 Challenges in Prince of Persia 07:30 Exploring Plucky Squire 10:51 Nostalgia and Movie References 12:21 Speedrunning and Game Challenges 17:09 Discussion on Game Licensing and Pricing 20:45 The Future of Portable Consoles 29:19 Xbox Developer Direct 2026 Insights 38:46 The Evolution of Pokémon Games 42:48 Excitement for Fable's Return 45:36 The Future of Fable: Choice and Consequence 47:35 Ubisoft's Project Cancellations and Studio Closures 49:55 The Downward Spiral of Ubisoft: Management Issues 54:32 Final Fantasy XIII: A Mixed Legacy Find us on TheGameDeflators.com Twitter - www.twitter.com/GameDeflators Facebook - www.facebook.com/TheGameDeflators Instagram - www.instagram.com/thegamedeflators The views and opinions expressed on this channel are solely those of the author.

Everything from Forza Horizon 6 and Kiln to Beast Of Reincarnation and Fable was shown off here! While the other games made their own noise, the Dukes (including Gene Park) were most captured by Fable. Judging by the noise online, so were many, many other people. For the first time in a long time, it feels like Xbox has a broadly appealing hit on their hands. Playground Games showed off everything from combat and choices to the economic and social simulation elements that always made Fable such a joy to play. With this comes the new introduction of "Living Population" where 1,000 NPCs all have their own hobbies, schedules, voice actors, and conversations. This is all designed to bring to life the replacement for Fable's famous morality system in the form of a reputation system that is similar to what is seen in Fable 3. Are there any snags for the Dukes with these changes? What has us most hyped? It's time to dive into what is now one of the most anticipated games of 2026.

This week on Xbox Expansion Pass, we break down the Xbox Developer Direct 2026 and what it tells us about Xbox's near-term future. We dig into Forza Horizon 6's Japan setting, release date, and controversial $120 Premium Edition pricing, and then pivot to a deep dive on the Fable reboot — combat, morality systems, NPC simulation, and why this could finally be the RPG Xbox fans have waited two generations for. We also react to Game Freak's Beast of Reincarnation, Double Fine's clay-brawler Kiln, and the wider 2026 slate including Halo: Campaign Evolved, Gears of War: E-Day, State of Decay 3, and Clockwork Revolution. Along the way we talk Game Pass value with big third-party adds like Death Stranding Director's Cut and Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2, plus how Xbox is handling $70+ pricing in a rough economy. In the back half of the show we answer a community question about which cancelled game we'd resurrect and who we'd want making it (yes, Scalebound and StarCraft: Ghost show up), touch on Arc Raiders' surprise success, Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade coming to Xbox with a limited Play Anywhere bonus, and share a few thoughts on Riot's 2XKO, cross-media crossovers like Stranger Things in Dead by Daylight, and the future of Xbox on PC and handhelds. Clear takes. No console-war noise. Xbox-forward discussion hosted by Luke Lohr (Insipid Ghost) and Captain Logun.

Not a lot of news, Ubisoft is "restructuring" and Prince of Persia: Sands of Time remake is officially cancelled as one of 7 sacrifices to the corpo-Gods. Also, we finally get some more info on Beast of Reincarnation (the new GameFreak game), Forza Horizon 6 and first looks at the new Fable.

En el nuevo episodio semanal de Vandal Radio, presentado por Alberto González junto a Jorge Cano, Fran G. Matas y Rubén Mercado, repasamos la actualidad del videojuego con un programa cargado de temas, metiéndonos en el futuro y la actualidad del gaming con una mirada crítica. En el programa de hoy os traemos un formato especial para hablar del Xbox Developer_Direct 2026, donde Microsoft y Xbox presentaron el nuevo Forza Horizon 6, dieron más detalles de Fable o se anunciaron sorpresas. Además, repasamos en profundidad el cambio de Ubisoft, que cancela varios juegos, potencia otros y se reestructura a nivel empresarial.
Manu und sein heutiger Gast Viet (PixelViet) haben sich die gestrige Xbox Developer Direct angeschaut und waren vom Gezeigten durchaus überrascht: Wir haben beeindruckendes Gameplay und einen richtigen DeepDive zum mit Spannung erwarteten Fable bekommen. Können die Playground Studios endlich die Vision von Peter Molyneux technisch umsetzen? Es sieht ganz danach aus. Wenig überraschend, aber dafür richtig schick: Forza Horizon 6 in Japan und auch Beast of Reincarnation wird erwartbar gut allen Anschein nach. Warum sich Viet auf das Spiel von Game Freak am meisten freut, erfahrt ihr im Cast. Kein Shadowdrop, aber kommt trotzdem bald: das auf den ersten Blick verwirrende neue Spiel von Double Fine.

As PlayStation's aggressive pursuit of crossmedia success continues, we have a new piece of news worth considering in the form of the casting of Kratos in Amazon's upcoming God of War series. 6'6" American actor Ryan Hurst has won the coveted role, joining notable writers, directors, and a famous showrunner to make what could very well be Sony's most promising TV property yet. We discuss. Plus: A notorious developer known for more than a thousand asset flip-slash-Trophy farming games has all of its titles removed from the PSN, compelling evidence circulates that 2016's The Division is getting a Definitive Edition on PS5 somewhat imminently, Xbox's Fable joins Avowed as yet another game slated for Sony's console, Call of Duty sales purportedly plummet 60% year-over-year, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! With Colin only a few Platinums away from 200, is there any game he's specifically targeting for the milestone? Following the closure of Meta's largest VR studios, is the pursuit of virtual reality in games officially dead? Could Sea of Thieves be the actual, original extraction shooter (for lack of a better term)? Do we anticipate we'll ever win the Golden Globe for Best Podcast?

After years of secrecy and many delays, Xbox is set to pull the lid off one of its most anticipated RPGs at the upcoming Developer Direct. First rumored in 2017 and announced in 2020, Fable has been baking at Playground Games, the prolific racing game studio, for a long, long time. Now, Xbox promises a deep dive on everything from combat and choice to British humor and chickens. Is it do or die time for Fable? How does its early year showing shake up the already packed summer showcase? Will we finally get a release date? Perhaps just a release year? Indeed, there are so many questions, but most of these will be announced very shortly!
