Rejugando 304: Forza Horizon 6, Yoshi and the Mysterious Book, Summer Game Fest y el regreso del ReJuniando Nuevo programa de Rejugando, en un episodio 304 marcado por el ambiente previo al Summer Game Fest, el regreso de la actualidad fuerte de la industria y una RetroBarcelona 2026 que dejó anécdotas, conciertos, encuentros con oyentes y muchísimas conversaciones sobre videojuegos clásicos y actuales. El programa arranca repasando precisamente todo lo vivido en RetroBarcelona, una edición especialmente multitudinaria donde el equipo coincidió con gran parte de la comunidad de Rejugando, otros medios y figuras históricas de la industria japonesa como Yoko Shimomura y Michiru Yamane. Entre conciertos, charlas, trivials y encuentros improvisados, el ambiente retro volvió a convertirse en uno de los grandes protagonistas del programa. Juegos que cumplen años: Pac-Man, Mario Galaxy 2, Persona 5 Dancing y más clásicos Como ya es tradición, el equipo repasa videojuegos que celebran aniversario durante esta segunda quincena de mayo. El listado deja momentos muy nostálgicos: Pac-Man cumple 46 años. Dragon's Dogma alcanza los 14 años. Odin Sphere llega a los 19 años. Super Mario Galaxy 2 cumple 16 años. Persona 5: Dancing Star Night cumple 8 años. Infamous alcanza los 17 años. Pandora's Tower celebra 15 años. Daikatana vuelve a salir a escena junto al nombre de John Romero. La conversación deriva también hacia cómo RetroBarcelona sirve precisamente para tomar conciencia del paso del tiempo en la industria y de la enorme cantidad de sagas históricas que siguen vivas décadas después. State of Play de PlayStation: Wolverine, Ghost of Yotei y apuestas para junio Uno de los grandes bloques del programa gira alrededor del anuncio oficial del próximo State of Play de Sony, fechado para el 2 de junio y situado estratégicamente justo antes del Summer Game Fest. Las apuestas del equipo giran alrededor de varios nombres: Marvel's Wolverine como gran protagonista del evento. El nuevo Horizon Online. Posibles novedades relacionadas con Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet. Rumores alrededor de Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 3. El equipo también comenta el contexto general del “junio jugón”, con el Summer Game Fest de Geoff Keighley y el showcase de Xbox como piezas clave de las próximas semanas. PlayStation Plus sube de precio y PlayStation sigue generando debate Otro de los temas principales del episodio es la nueva subida de precios de PlayStation para los planes mensuales y trimestrales de PlayStation Plus. Se comenta especialmente: La subida del modelo Extra y Premium. La estrategia de mantener intacta la suscripción anual. El malestar generado por el anuncio de última hora. El encarecimiento generalizado de todos los servicios digitales. A esto se suma el debate sobre la política de comunicación actual de PlayStation, la estrategia respecto a lanzamientos en PC y el movimiento de mantener ciertos juegos first party exclusivamente en consola. También se habla de la reciente brecha de seguridad en PlayStation Network y de los problemas relacionados con recuperación de cuentas y autenticación. Xbox y la nueva etapa liderada por Sarah Bond El bloque dedicado a Xbox se centra en la reorganización interna de la compañía y en los movimientos liderados por Sarah Bond. El programa repasa: Cambios en la estructura directiva. La nueva interfaz de Xbox. El debate sobre la necesidad de recuperar exclusivos fuertes. El estado actual de la marca tras la generación Xbox One. Las expectativas alrededor del próximo showcase de junio. También se analiza cómo Xbox intenta reconstruir parte de la identidad perdida durante los últimos años mientras Game Pass sigue siendo uno de los pilares del ecosistema. GTA VI, Rockstar y cifras absolutamente descomunales Durante la grabación llegan además datos financieros actualizados de Rockstar Games y Take-Two Interactive. Las cifras comentadas en el programa son gigantescas: Grand Theft Auto V supera los 230 millones de copias vendidas. La saga GTA alcanza los 470 millones. Red Dead Redemption 2 llega a 85 millones de unidades. La franquicia Red Dead supera ya los 115 millones. A partir de ahí el equipo debate sobre: El posible precio de Grand Theft Auto VI. El futuro de GTA Online. La transición entre GTA Online y el nuevo GTA VI. Los rumores sobre bundles con PlayStation 5. El impacto económico gigantesco que sigue teniendo Rockstar. Análisis de Forza Horizon 6: Japón, coches, libertad y obsesión por conducir Uno de los análisis centrales del episodio está dedicado a Forza Horizon 6. El programa profundiza en muchos aspectos del nuevo juego de Playground Games: Japón como escenario principal El cambio de ambientación respecto a México es uno de los puntos más celebrados. Japón aporta: Carreteras urbanas inspiradas en Tokio. Zonas montañosas alrededor del Monte Fuji. Cultura automovilística japonesa. Mayor protagonismo de coches JDM. Estética más sobria y nocturna. Rendimiento técnico El equipo destaca: 60 fps extremadamente sólidos en Xbox Series X. Rendimiento espectacular en PC. Tiempos de carga rapidísimos. Excelente modelado interior de vehículos. Efectos climáticos y cambios meteorológicos muy avanzados. Jugabilidad y estructura El juego vuelve a apostar por: Mundo abierto gigantesco. Libertad absoluta. Eventos arcade. Derrapes, velocidad y exploración. Personalización de coches. Compra de casas y decoración. Desafíos online y rankings entre amigos. También se comenta cómo el juego funciona incluso para jugadores poco interesados en coches gracias a su enfoque accesible y relajado. La banda sonora recibe mención especial por incluir música japonesa contemporánea y temas de YOASOBI. Primeras impresiones de Yoshi and the Mysterious Book El otro gran análisis del episodio gira alrededor de Yoshi and the Mysterious Book. Las primeras impresiones destacan: Un enfoque muy distinto al esperado. Mucho menos centrado en plataformas tradicionales. Mecánicas experimentales. Puzles y exploración. Sistema de descubrimiento de criaturas. Estética infantil muy cuidada. Música especialmente destacada. El juego sorprende por romper con la idea clásica de un plataformas de Yoshi y apostar por una estructura más experimental. Kingdom Come Deliverance 3 y el RPG de El Señor de los Anillos El programa también comenta el anuncio de: Kingdom Come: Deliverance III. Un nuevo RPG basado en The Lord of the Rings desarrollado por Warhorse Studios. La conversación gira alrededor del potencial de un RPG realista y detallista dentro del universo de Tolkien y del enorme reto que supone adaptar una licencia tan querida. Dungeons & Dragons cancela uno de sus proyectos También hay espacio para hablar de la cancelación de un nuevo videojuego de Dungeons & Dragons por parte de Hasbro. Aunque el proyecto desaparece, el estudio sigue trabajando junto a Hasbro en otros desarrollos relacionados con la licencia. Música, RetroBarcelona y comunidad Rejugando El episodio termina dejando claro el peso que sigue teniendo la comunidad alrededor de Rejugando. RetroBarcelona vuelve a convertirse en el punto de encuentro perfecto para oyentes, amigos y aficionados al videojuego clásico. Las actuaciones musicales inspiradas en sagas como: Castlevania Kingdom Hearts Final Fantasy XV ponen el broche a un programa cargado de actualidad, nostalgia, análisis y muchísimo ambiente de junio videojueguil. Y ahora sí: comienza oficialmente el “Rejuniando”. Antes de cerrar, recuerdan que la comunidad puede unirse a las partidas online de Forza Horizon 6 buscando a “RafaValencia137” y compartir impresiones del programa tanto en Twitch como en iVoox.

ITPM Flash provides insight into what professional traders are thinking about in the markets RIGHT NOW! Consumer sentiment is collapsing… yet one sector may be perfectly positioned to benefit. In this week's ITPM Flash, Dieter breaks down why a weak consumer backdrop doesn't necessarily mean weak spending — and how the "substitution effect" could drive demand toward lower-cost, high-engagement entertainment. That leads us to a compelling opportunity in Take-Two Interactive — the company behind one of the most successful franchises in history, Grand Theft Auto V. With Grand Theft Auto VI set for release and hype already building, Dieter explores why this could be a powerful catalyst — and how to structure a limited-risk options trade to capture the upside.

In this episode, host Travis Chappell and his producer Eric kick off 2026 with a tongue‑in‑cheek look at “getting rich” in Grand Theft Auto V versus actually building wealth in real life. Using a viral GTA video that breaks down the “five best businesses to buy” in the game, they unpack why it's so tempting to grind for fake money while feeling stuck financially—and where that logic breaks down if you're unhappy with your real bank account. Along the way, they swap stories about ultra‑strict childhood rules on movies and games, why sleepovers now feel like a hard no as parents, and how leisure fits into a healthy, ambitious life. On this episode we talk about: A GTA V creator teaching “five businesses that will make you rich online” and how his million‑view content is actually an example of turning play into a real income stream. The difference between enjoying games as a hobby versus pouring five hours a day into them while complaining there's “no opportunity” in real life. Childhood stories about not being allowed to watch certain movies or play certain games, calling parents from sleepovers, and the weird logic of which ratings were “okay” and which weren't. How becoming parents has flipped their perspective: less concern about temporary tattoos and game ratings, more concern about letting kids sleep at other people's houses at all. The rise of creators who build channels around nostalgic games, movie tie‑in titles, or walkthroughs—and how that can turn low‑effort fun into a monetized side project. Why modern games and social platforms are engineered to keep you in an endless loop, and how that “vortex” quietly delays people from ever taking real swings at their goals. The nuanced take: you don't have to be “grinding 24/7,” but you also can't expect big financial changes if every spare hour goes to escapism. A brief tangent into IP consolidation (Saudi money, Activision, Bond, DC, Lord of the Rings) and how massive ownership shifts change what shows, games, and stories get made. Top 3 Takeaways Hobbies are fine—until they clash with your goals. Playing GTA or Call of Duty isn't a moral issue; the problem is when you're miserable with your finances yet still spend all your free time in virtual worlds instead of building real skills and income. You either monetize the passion or own the trade‑off. The GTA creator in the clip turned his obsession into a channel with hundreds of thousands of subscribers; if you don't want to do that, that's fine—but then you have to accept slower financial progress without blaming “lack of opportunity.” Most “successful people” aren't gaming all day. High performers might still play, but usually after they've already put in serious work; expecting similar results while investing most of your energy into entertainment is a mismatch in inputs and outcomes. Notable Quotes “If you're spending five hours a day playing video games and also complaining there's no opportunity, you can't be mad at the results you're getting.” “That guy grinding GTA businesses is actually making real money—because he turned his gameplay into content, not just a way to escape his own life.” “Do whatever you want in your downtime, but don't be shocked when the people who spend that same downtime learning and building get very different outcomes.” ✖️✖️✖️✖️
Summary In this episode of the Slightly Above Average Gaming Podcast, hosts J007tv and Subone KD reflect on their holiday experiences, discuss family traditions, and delve into the gaming landscape, including the enduring appeal of Mario Kart, the identity crisis of Call of Duty, and the success of Grand Theft Auto V.

PlayStation gana terreno al permitir jugar más de 2.800 juegos en la nube sin necesidad de tener una consola PS5. Por Félix Riaño @LocutorCo Escucha el Flash Diario en SpotifySony actualizó el PlayStation Portal para que sus usuarios jueguen directamente desde la nube, sin una consola. Con esta jugada, PlayStation supera a Xbox en su propio terreno: el juego en streaming. Ahora, los suscriptores de PlayStation Plus Premium pueden acceder a miles de títulos en cualquier lugar con conexión Wi-Fi. PlayStation anunció la llegada oficial del juego en la nube a su dispositivo portátil PlayStation Portal. Desde este 5 de noviembre, los jugadores pueden disfrutar de miles de títulos de PS5 sin tener la consola. Entre ellos están Astro Bot, Grand Theft Auto V, Resident Evil 4 y Final Fantasy VII Rebirth. Esta función, exclusiva del plan Premium de PlayStation Plus, ofrece transmisión directa desde los servidores de Sony y un catálogo superior al de Xbox Cloud Gaming. ¿Está PlayStation preparándose para dominar también el juego en PC y la nube? ¿Xbox ya no es el rey del juego en la nube? Durante años, Sony y Microsoft compitieron por tener la mejor consola. PlayStation 5 logró vender más de 50 millones de unidades, mientras Xbox se enfocó en servicios como Game Pass Ultimate y su plataforma en la nube. Pero ahora, la historia cambia. Con esta actualización, el PlayStation Portal se convierte en un dispositivo realmente independiente: permite jugar sin consola, desde cualquier lugar con buena conexión. La interfaz fue rediseñada y ahora incluye tres secciones: “Remote Play”, “Cloud Streaming” y “Buscar”. Además, añade sonido 3D, compras dentro del juego y opciones de accesibilidad. Este avance pone presión sobre Xbox. Hasta ahora, Microsoft mantenía la ventaja con Xbox Cloud Gaming y su programa Play Anywhere, que permite comprar un juego una sola vez y usarlo tanto en consola como en PC. Pero las filtraciones indican que Sony también prepara un sistema de “Cross Buy”, es decir, una compra única entre PS5 y PC. Si eso se confirma, PlayStation igualará e incluso superará la estrategia de Xbox. La diferencia principal está en el catálogo: la plataforma de Sony cuenta con más de 2.800 juegos disponibles para streaming, mientras que Xbox ofrece alrededor de 2.100. El nuevo enfoque de Sony parece claro: ampliar su ecosistema sin depender del hardware. El PlayStation Portal, que costaba cerca de 200 dólares y antes servía solo como accesorio del PS5, ahora se convierte en una consola portátil para jugar títulos de última generación en cualquier parte. Incluso permite recibir invitaciones multijugador y hacer compras dentro del juego sin salir de la sesión. Aunque Xbox sigue ofreciendo ventajas como Game Pass Ultimate y compatibilidad total con Windows, su estrategia de eliminar exclusividades podría jugarle en contra. Mientras tanto, Sony gana terreno con funciones que acercan la experiencia del PS5 a cualquier pantalla. El éxito del Portal sorprendió a Sony: fue el accesorio de videojuegos más vendido en Reino Unido en julio de 2024, con cerca de dos millones de unidades. Con la llegada del streaming oficial, el número de usuarios podría crecer mucho más. Este cambio también prepara el terreno para la próxima generación: se rumorea que el futuro PlayStation 6 tendrá dos versiones, una de sobremesa y otra portátil, ambas listas para streaming. En cambio, Microsoft planea integrar su siguiente Xbox con Windows y Steam, lo que podría fragmentar su catálogo. El mercado de los videojuegos parece entrar en una nueva fase donde el hardware ya no es lo más importante. PlayStation Portal ya puede jugar miles de títulos de PS5 sin consola y supera a Xbox en la nube. ¿Estamos ante un nuevo futuro sin hardware? Comenta tu opinión y sigue escuchando Flash Diario en Spotify. PlayStation Portal ya permite jugar más de 2.800 títulos en la nube sin consola. Xbox pierde su ventaja en streaming.

I FINALY played this one for the first time and damned if it isn't the most impressive video game I've ever played.I didn't love Vice City back in the day and kinda checked out from the GTA series after that. But hosting this show got me to play San Andreas, GTA IV, and now GTA V, and with each entry I like the series more and more. IV and San Andreas are fun, but V takes it to a whole new level. Michael, Trevor, and Franklin are awesome, the missions are entertaining, the story is interesting, and the world of this game is just, I know I keep saying it, impressive!Our GTA guy, Andre, joins me this week to break down the story mode of Grand Theft Auto V. We spoil everything, get into the quest for The Big One, talk about our favourite plot points and side missions, and heap as much praise as we could squeeze into a 75 minute review onto GTA V this week.

The October Spooktacular continues as we sit down to watch Dark Match (2024), a Shudder original horror film about pro wrestling in late-80's Canada. This one is directed by Lowell Dean (Wolf Cop), starring Ayisha Issa (Brick Mansions), Steven Ogg (The Walking Dead, Trevor in Grand Theft Auto V), and Chris Jericho (Sturgis Motorcycle Rally). Dark Match is a simple tale about a crew of wrestlers invited to perform at an off-the-grid private party that quickly becomes a satanic nightmare. It's kinda like regional wrestling meets Green Room and also Mortal Kombat. We're talking about grisly special effects, extremely dark lighting, wildly shifting tones, and Chris Jericho's time at the Steven Seagal School of Acting While Sitting. Folks... it's a good one.

In this episode, we peel back the layers of Grand Theft Auto V to spotlight the lesser-known details hiding in plain sight. From scrapped single-player DLC and secret underwater wrecks to the bizarre reasons behind GTA Online's alien gang wars, we're digging into the game's forgotten corners, hidden mechanics, and development oddities. This isn't your average GTA trivia—it's the stuff you probably missed, the things Rockstar never told you, and the facts that make Los Santos even weirder than it already is.

Have you ever heard of the 'Nemesis System?' No? That's not surprising! The 'Nemesis System' is a patented game mechanic that was only included in two games in the mid 2010s. Despite the mechanic only existing for about 50 hours of gameplay, it's impact runs deep. For nearly a decade, gamers have been begging for another Nemesis-ed game to get their grubby little paws on. Well, lucky for those gamers, we're here to pitch the best games to get 'Nemmy." Matt is adding consequences to a game that's never had them. Andrew is adding more cards to a game that already has them. Todd is adding cultural relevance to a game that's never had it.

The band's breakout hit, "Living In A Box," reached number five in the UK and number 17 on the Billboard Hot 100 back in 1987. Marcus discusses which came first, the band name or the song title. He also talks about whether or not the band name hurt them. Living In A Box released two albums and broke up in 1990. The song "Living In a Box'" found new life as it was featured in the video game, Grand Theft Auto V. In 2016, Living in a Box reformed with British soul singer Kenny Thomas replacing Richard Darbyshire. In 2022, they announced that they have a new singer, Bryan Chambers. Since they have reformed, the band has appeared at live festival events in the UK such as Let's Rock, Rewind and Flashback.
Remember the first time Saints Row: The Third pulled you into its wild, unpredictable world? We do too, and it's that nostalgia we're revisiting today. This episode is all about reliving the glory days of this iconic game that dared to break away from its predecessors and the shadow of Grand Theft Auto. Once hesitant about the Saints Row series, we found ourselves unexpectedly captivated by its third installment, which redefined what fun meant in an open-world setting. It's a celebration of the Xbox 360 era, where the blend of chaos and humor left an indelible mark on our gaming journey.As we explore the series further, we reflect on the mixed sentiments surrounding Saints Row: The Third and its successors. Despite its success, the series' pivot towards exaggerated humor and sci-fi madness in later games, particularly Saints Row 4, was a divisive move. Some cherished the evolution, while others yearned for the gritty narrative and emotional depth of the earlier titles. We also touch on the broader gaming landscape of the time, dominated by giants like Grand Theft Auto V and The Last of Us, and how these titles influenced our gaming preferences and choices.Wrapping up, we take a critical look at the franchise's decline and the eventual reboot that left fans wanting more. The attempt to recapture the magic with the 2022 reboot fell flat, failing to resonate with both old and new audiences. We discuss what could possibly revive the Saints Row series to its former glory and its place among other open-world legends. Alongside this, we reminisce about other classic titles like Crackdown and Sleeping Dogs, and look forward to future gaming hits, acknowledging the ever-evolving nature of our gaming tastes and the nostalgia that keeps us coming back for more.Interested in watching us play games?

In light of Summer Game Fest, we dive into conventions and gaming events, IRL and virtual. What we've been to and where we'd like to see events go in the future. How have gaming conventions changed over time, and how does the audience affect the programming? 0:00 - What we're playing: Dragon Quest III, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth (Zac); Cyberpunk 2077, Grand Theft Auto V, The Sims 1 (Bryan); Dave the Diver, Steamworld Dig, The Sims 4 (Xan). 21:18 - Our personal experience with conventions: E3, anime & music conventions, game reselling conventions, Tokyo Game Show. 32:51 - The prototypical "gaming convention": E3. Its beginnings as a tradeshow for retailers, to press conferences that broke news to the public, to its influence on more social events. Experience at D.I.C.E., IndieCade. 40:08 - Bigger publishers doing their own virtual shows to replace their E3 press conferences, and now SGF trying to round them up again. Where do indie developers fit in? 47:27 - The social function of conventions: hanging out with friends, meeting like-minded gamers with similar interests. Community! How that purpose got lost, and how do we get it back? 55:13 - Virtual events, live-streamed showcases: a replacement for conventions in some ways but not others. SGF, Wholesome Direct, Nintendo Direct, Sony State of Play, etc. 1:02:08 - Retro computer/gaming conventions, serving gamers as they age. Celebration of gaming culture & history rather than products. 1:15:37 - SoCal Gaming Expo and panels we want at cons. 1:20:17 - Xan's request for remote events and playable demos at home, like Steam Next Fest. AbleGamers Gala. Online events for accessbility as well as a platform for indie devs. Bryan - @analogdarling on Twitch, Twitter, and Instagram Xander - @xanwithaplan on Twitch and Twitter Zac - @zacaroniandcheez on Twitch, @GaijinWota on Twitter and Instagram Contact and Episode Suggestions - GameDeep.fun Theme Song by Robotprins
