The Yukon government is betting on a first-in-Canada solution to help protect Whitehorse from wildfire: a permanent fuel break made of trees. Replacing conifers with the more fire-resistant, deciduous aspen trees, the community hopes it will keep fire from encroaching on the city. But, the process takes a lot of work, starting with harvesting tiny seeds.
This week Matt goes off, Eric tries, we do some due diligence, Hell Is Us has a demo, WWE 2K25 brings Bray back, we discuss FBC Firebreak, and could Atlus be thinking about ReFantazio 2?

Today on the 5: Lando and I talked about our time playing FBC Firebreak, a game we were both looking forward to but ended up burning out on pretty quickly. Turns out we weren't alone, but I actually agree with the publisher that despite the problems the core game is worth trying to save.
Fast Baked Chicken or video game?This acronym could stand for anything, but what it truly stands for is Federal Bureau of Control. Developed and published by Remedy Entertainment, this is simultaneously the debut multiplayer first-person shooter developed by the studio and also the first game published by them. That said, these folks are no strangers to making games and have previously brought you the likes of Max Payne, Alan Wake, and (surprise!) Control. Set six years after the events of that single-player title, the developers have allegedly crafted this game to stand on its own. Will it be a salve for those feeling fatigue with the genre or is multiplayer not an illness this studio can cure? Tom and Chris have ventured out to contain an extradimensional incursion... will you join them?What do you think?

Donkey Kong Bananza | Marathon Delay | FBC Firebreak | Rematch | The Alters | Splitgate 2 - WWP 455
We preview the next big Switch 2 exclusive, Donkey Kong Bananaza, and The Blood of Dawnwalker! Plus, reviews of Rematch and Remedy's FBC: Firebreak. The MindsEye and Splitgate 2 disasters, and so much more!
This week on Critical Arcade, Dave and Nick must strap on their badass welding masks, sign NDA papers, and grab the biggest squirt gun they can find because they are jumping into the shoes of the FBC's first responders. Tasked with keeping the endless paranormal threats under control and its never-ending deluge of spontaneous fires, overwhelming Post-it Notes, and aggressively growing pink stuff (we think it might be bubblegum). Will Dave go mad shooting yellow squares of paper? And will Nick find out why Sony doesn't want him to matchmake with someone? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

PS This is Awesome: Episode 374 - Doom Drops, Marines Rise, and Oblivion LoomsFred took a break from Octopath Traveler 2 this week, but he did boot up Space Marine 2 to check out the big new free update. We'll dig into his thoughts on that later in the episode. Jake finally beat Robocop: Rogue City and shares with us his specs. He also started playing a game called Anno MutationemNo listener feedback this week—y'all must be as busy as we are. Let's get into what's going on in the world of PlayStation.Bethesda fans, mark your calendars—there's an official Oblivion Remastered announcement coming on April 22. We've been hearing rumors forever, but this is the real deal. Meanwhile, DOOM: The Dark Ages just dropped its official trailer. The game launches May 15, 2025, and the trailer is an interesting mix—starting off pretty story-heavy before unleashing that signature DOOM gameplay, backed by some face-melting metal. You're playing as “The Slayer,” naturally. It looks awesome.There's a new showcase on the scene called Galaxies, focused on indie and first-look games. It streamed exclusively on Twitch and featured titles like SPINE, Firebreak (Remedy's next project), and Clair Obscur. Definitely one to keep on your radar if you're into the lesser-known gems.Sony dropped a teardown video of the PS5 Pro over on the PlayStation Blog if you're into hardware stuff. We also got more details on the Days Gone Remastered, which will feature new modes like Horde Assault: Survival Arcade, Permadeath, and Speedrun mode—sounds like they're giving fans a lot more to sink their teeth into.And for those still curious about Marathon, PlayStation Blog has posted a full gameplay overview.
