Xbox Dominates PS5 Charts, Grand Strategy Returns, and Nostalgia Hits High Gear This week's gaming landscape sees intriguing shifts and anticipated returns, as discussed on the latest GameBurst Podcast. In a surprising turn, all of last month's best-selling titles on Sony's PS5 were published by rival Xbox, further blurring console battle lines. This trend continues with the news that another major Microsoft franchise, Gears of War, will make its debut on PlayStation later this year with a revamped edition of the original game.   Paradox Interactive has officially lifted the veil on 'Project Caesar', confirming widespread speculation that it is indeed Europa Universalis 5, heralding what the developers are calling a "new era for grand strategy." Meanwhile, Rockstar's GTA 6 trailer has shattered records, becoming the biggest video launch of all time and surpassing even Hollywood behemoths like Deadpool and Wolverine, despite a potential release pushed to 2026.   Subscribers to Xbox Game Pass can look forward to a robust May, with a fresh wave of titles including day-one releases such as Doom: The Dark Ages and Revenge of the Savage Planet. Fans of historical action have cause for celebration too, as the highly anticipated sequel to Ghost of Tsushima, titled Ghost of Yōtei, is set to launch on October 2, 2025, nearly five years after the original. Finally, a dose of 90s nostalgia is incoming with Crystal Dynamics' cult classic Gex and its two sequels being bundled for a multi-platform release on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Switch, and PC on June 16th. #gameburst

The life-simulator inZOI has taken the Internet by storm, with lots of gamers currently hopping into the downloadable character creator demo on Steam. The ultra realistic graphics in this game easily slays whatever The Sims is cooking up, and you can take control of your character like any third-person video game on the market. If you still like the point and click mechanics The Sims is known for, you can still do that as well in #inZOI. There's gameplay online from a select few content creators who got early builds of the game to play around in, and from what I've seen personally I'm impressed. Hyper-realistic graphics, the ability to change anything within the game, you actually have to cook or purchase food in order for your character to stay alive. You can also operate vehicles to navigate the city map - this'll likely draw Grand Theft Auto comparisons for that sole fact. But the difference is, you have to actually purchase vehicles, so no going up to a random car and slipping in … at least none of the gameplay footage showed that, so unsure what we'll get or see in the final build. I'm sure there's a lot of Sims fans out there, but The Sims 4 came out almost a decade ago. There hasn't been a real competitor to The Sims, and the only other game that seemed like it had potential to dethrone EA's crowning jewel was Paradox Interactive's Life By You. Life By You was announced back in 2023 with a rather impressive trailer that showcased its open world environment and all the activities you could partake in within it. But after its early access being delayed twice, Life By You was unceremoniously canceled apparently due to the developers lacking confidence in being able to deliver on what it promised gamers in this life sim.

I will be once again hosting at Summer Games Done Quick 2024! Check out my schedule to see what I'm hosting on Day 1 and Day 3 of the event! VRChat has laid off 30% of their team due to incorrect staffing and the inability to scale. Cities: Skylines 2 had to remove virtual landlords from the game because it made the rent in game too high. The new Call of Duty is NOT 308GB after all - that's only if you literally install every version of COD included. Then we talk to Rob about Twitch adding super reactions and why you shouldn't give us $100 just to make emotes appear.

Rob, Patrick, and Janet discuss the Nintendo Direct, the cancellation of Life by You and the cycle of missteps at Paradox Interactive, the ups-and-downs of Eugen Systems' RTS games, and life aboard a haunted oil rig in Still Wakes the Deep. But first, the gang show what it means to live the Good Life by discussing Selaco, the Doom-derived FEAR-like that has been kicking butts and (trailer voice) BLOWING THEIR MINDS.Discussed: 3:32 - Selaco, 28:42 - Nintendo Direct, 1:13:07 - Life by You & Paradox Interactive, 1:27:43 - A brief Bloodborne Interlude, 1:32:08 - CATO, 1:38:50 - CONSCRIPT, 1:44:34 - Glyphica: Typing Survival, 1:50:23 - Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn, 1:54:16 - I Am Your Beast, 2:02:42 - WARNO, 2:14:24 - Still Wakes the DeepSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Nintendo continues to beat its on drum, as we saw on full display at the newest Direct, and did we get our first footage of a game running on the next switch? Elden Ring hits a major milestone before its DLC release, and Todd Howard gets candid. They Boys and House of the Dragon return and hit the ground running. And the Acolyte has broken the fandom, in a way I never expected. But what about the droid attack on the wookies?

We react to the summer Nintendo Direct, including thoughts on Metroid Prime 4 footage, Mario & Luigi Brothership, The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, and the shocking return of Marvel vs Capcom 2. We discuss Epic acknowledging the issue with Fortnite's free cars being more dangerous than paid ones. Paradox Interactive cancels Life by You. Meme clicker game Banana nears 850,000 concurrent players - why is this happening? Carrie details why Shin Megami Tensai V: Vengeance is a great jumping-in point for the series.

They discuss what aspects of the game worked for them, as well as what they would like to see develop as patches and updates are to come. Topics include how Millennia iterates on the concept of Ages, thematic dissonance, the unfinished nature of modern games, and what kinds of strategies the game mechanics reward.
