While the wider world continues to embrace ubiquitous access for their digital products, compelling rumors indicate Sony might opt to go in the other direction. This is particularly surprising considering their pursuit of success on PC, openness in publishing on Nintendo Switch, and the shocking move to bring Helldivers II to Xbox. Then again, the numbers speak for themselves. It appears PlayStation has grossed somewhere between one and two billion dollars in total from their PC releases dating back to 2020, a comically small sum compared to their greater gross over that time, and an amount of money that may simply not justify further jeopardizing their closed ecosystem. Are we about to snap back to the old way of doing things? Many PlayStation fans will be pleased, if so. Plus: Wolverine gets a September release date on PS5, Horizon: Hunters Gathering and Marathon revel in concurrent playtests, Death Stranding 2 is coming to PC very soon, French publisher Nacon declares its insolvency, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! Can Sony's first party teams truly be blamed for pitching games-as-a-service when it was clear that's what leadership wanted? Could it be possible that the secret Santa Monica Studio, Cory Barlog-directed game is Uncharted? Is Resident Evil 9's 10-12 hour runtime a selling point or a detriment? Will Sacred Symbols go another 400 episodes, or perhaps even 4,000? This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

I may leave this world, but we'll always be a podcast. Welcome back to the podcast, and to the third episode of Fanbruary, in which we play games suggested by you the listener. For this installment, we're going to be talking about Klonoa 2, a 2-or-2.5D platformer on the Playstation 2. This is a game that thrives on novelty, with the interesting ways it uses its enemies as items and creative foreground and background elements for both traversal and puzzle solving. And of course, being from the early 2000s it has to also feature hoverboard levels which play very differently to the platforming and boss fights. Basically, the variety makes this game novel and with a tight runtime it ends up feeling paced pretty well, even if some of the later levels drag a bit. We're going to be talking about how the game uses, and in some cases forces, its 3D design elements, our thoughts on mascot character design, and just how many stages can be donuts. Thank you for joining us again this week! Klonoa 2 has been a recurring suggestion so we're glad to finally play it. Unfortunately it was not suggested to us twenty years ago when we could have experienced in its original context, which I think would have helped us appreciate the unique things the game actually does. Still, it was an interesting look back, and the things that it does well are still genuinely interesting. Were you able to play this game when it came out, or is it new to you as well? Let us know over in the Discord or in the comments below! Given that this is literally the last day of February, we'll likely bleed a little into Farch, but be sure to stay tuned, because next time we're talking about Roadwarden!

Pixel Project Radio here!To break up Fighting Game February, Rick and Bill (Gaming and Collecting; 3DO Experience; Geek Addicts) jump into the 3D Kingdom of Dotnia in 3D Dot Game Heroes! This game—with credits from Fromsoft and Atlus!—was released to general favorability in 2009 but never made a notable impression. Perhaps this is why it's marooned on the PS3 and the PS3 only to this day! This is a very special game, and in this episode Rick and Bill break down why it deserves far more love than it gets: the infectious music, the self-referential and -parodic writing, the gorgeous marriage of 2D and 3D, and more. 3D Dot Game Heroes does so much right. It deserves more recognition—and we're gonna tell you about it! Hope you love the show today. Enjoy!Thank you for listening! Want to reach out to PPR?

Then, in Week Old News, Sony shuts down yet another studio and draws the ire of their fanbase, David Jaffe has big feelings about the new God of War, new old Virtual Boy footage surfaces, and more! Finally, in the Checkpoint, Kris gets his octopus on with the Darwin's Paradox demo, Dan likes Sons of Sparta much more than David Jaffe, Kris spends some quality time with his favorite pinball machines at his local arcade, Dan loves the new Jaws, and more!

This week we break down the massive leadership shakeup at Xbox, including Phil Spencer's reported retirement, Sarah Bond's resignation, and Microsoft's decision to appoint Asha Sharma as the new Head of Xbox. What does this mean for the future of Xbox consoles, the multi-platform strategy, and the brand's long-term direction? We also dive into the reporting surrounding internal reactions to the “Xbox Anywhere” push, the shift back toward core console players, and what Asha Sharma's AI-focused background could signal for the future of gaming. Is Xbox returning to its roots — or entering a new era entirely? On the PlayStation side, we discuss Sony Interactive Entertainment's decision to close Bluepoint Games, the studio behind the Demon's Souls remake. We break down Herman Hulst's justification, the broader industry challenges Sony cited, and what this means for PlayStation Studios moving forward. Finally, we talk about the confirmed release date for Marvel's Wolverine and how it fits into PlayStation's roadmap for 2026. What do you think — is Xbox stabilizing or struggling? Did Sony make the right call with Bluepoint? Let us know below.

This week on Thanks For Playing, Matt and Hot Mickey run an abridged history of the console wars—from Atari's boom-and-bust (yes, E.T.), to Nintendo's NES “seal of quality,” Sega's edgy Genesis era, Sony's PlayStation pivot that changed everything, and Microsoft entering the chat with Xbox Live, LAN parties, and Halo nights. They also debate what console wars even look like now: fewer exclusives, crossplay everywhere, Steam remote play, and a future that might be more “subscription/cloud wars” than plastic boxes under your TV. Plus: first consoles, legendary gamertags, and one extremely dangerous Wii Tennis household memory. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In massive gaming news, and I MEAN MASSIVE! Phil Spencer has retired from Xbox and Microsoft and his #2 Sarah Bond resigned as well, as a questionable new CEO takes the reigns. Plus Sony plans to reboot their wider Spider-manless Spider-verse after its utter collapse, no more morbin time? Mortal Kombat 2 got a Johnny Cage filled trailer and Valve is getting sued by the state of New York and as Jackie Chiles would say: "It's outrageous, egregious, preposterous!"

We have been busy playing Resident Evil Requiem and we want to share our thoughts on the game after getting through the first 10 hours. First of all, Capcom sent us the Nintendo Switch 2 version so we can finally talk about how this game compares to the PlayStation 5 version we played a while ago. Is it worth it to get this game on Switch 2? Let's discuss!

This week Hans Gougar joins to discuss the current state of video game adaptations in Hollywood. Between Nintendo's collaborations with Sony Pictures and Universal, to television like Fallout & The Last of Us, the hottest trend in cinema right now is adapting your favorite game to the silver (or small) screen. In what ways is this similar to the superhero Marvel Studios-led gold rush, and what lessons can Hollywood learn from the last 5 years of superhero fatigue? We break it all down. We also cover all the Nintendo and gaming news such as Phil Spencer and Sarah Bond leaving Xbox, Sony closing down Playstation studio Bluepoint, the Supreme Court overturning Trump's tariffs, Pokemon Leaf Green and Fire Red coming to Switch and much more. As always, we close with the games we've been playing.

Subscription The Subscription Life Trap | Episode 594 Good morning. This is James from SurvivalPunk.com. It's 23 degrees in Tennessee. The weather jumped from the 60s to the 20s, like it's trying to kill morale. My body isn't thrilled about it. And today we're talking about something just as irritating. The subscription life. How everything is trying to turn into a recurring payment… and how that slowly drags down your freedom. You Don't Own Anything Anymore Almost everything is trying to become subscription-based. Apps. Software. Entertainment. Editing tools. AI tools. Streaming platforms. Even stuff that absolutely should be a one-time purchase. You don't buy things anymore. You rent access. That's the shift. Back in the day, if you rented a movie from Blockbuster, that made sense. You chose to rent it. It was a known expense. If money was tight, you skipped it that week. Now? It's $1.99 a month forever. That's the trap. Subscriptions Are Credit Card Debt With Better Marketing A subscription is basically invisible debt. You're committing to pay indefinitely for something you can never “finish” paying off. At least with a credit card purchase, there's an endpoint. With subscriptions? There isn't one. And companies absolutely count on you forgetting. There's some nerd somewhere who has calculated exactly how long the average person forgets to cancel. That's part of the business model. You sign up. You forget. They collect. And because it's “only” a few dollars a month, your brain doesn't treat it like real money. That's psychological warfare at the micro level. You're At Their Mercy Here's where it gets worse. You don't actually own what you “buy.” If you purchase a movie digitally and the service loses the license, you can lose access to it. You paid. Doesn't matter. You're renting access to a bookmark. Streaming services rotate content constantly. Licensing agreements change. Regions get restricted. Content disappears. You don't control it. They do. And in some cases, you're paying companies that actively push agendas you don't agree with. Why fund people who openly despise your worldview? That's worth thinking about. Real Example: The $1.50 HBO Mistake Black Friday deal. $1.50 per month for HBO Max. Cheap enough to ignore. I signed up “just in case” I couldn't log into my brother's account. Months later? I haven't used it once. That's exactly how this works. Multiply that by 10 subscriptions. Now multiply that by millions of people. That's a massive wealth drain. The Cure: Own Your Stuff The solution is simple. Own things. Buy physical media. Keep your own music. Build your own digital library. Use alternatives like Plex. Download what you legally own. Back it up. Control your access. Spotify is convenient. So is Pandora. But if you already own thousands of songs on a hard drive, why are you paying someone monthly to shuffle music you don't even like? Same with audiobooks. If you bought it, make sure you truly have it. Ownership equals independence. Subscriptions equal dependency. Subscription Creep Is Real The real danger isn't one subscription. It's the pile. $9.99 here. $12.99 there. $1.50 just in case. Another $7 for something you barely use. Now you're bleeding $100+ a month for “convenience.” That's $1,200 a year. That's prep money. Debt payoff money. Investment money. That's freedom money. Final Thoughts Subscriptions feel harmless. They're not. They normalize renting your life instead of owning it. They put you at the mercy of corporations. They count on forgetfulness. They slowly erode independence. Prepping isn't just about food and water. It's about reducing dependency. Own your tools. Own your media. Own your capability. This is James from SurvivalPunk.com. DIY to survive.

We're starting a new category today - Spinoff Games! In this category we take a look at games from characters we know and love but in a different context from what made them famous in the first place. First up we have PAC Man World Re PAC, which released in 2022, but is a remake (hence the name "Re PAC") of a game intially released for the original PlayStation. We're used to playing as PAC Man in an arcade style but how does that translate to a 2.5D Platformer?For the poll this week, the brothers are asking which one of these classic arcade games is your favorite - Donkey Kong, Space Invaders, or PAC-Man.Follow us onX @BrosBossBattlesYouTube @BrosBossBattlesInstagram @BrosBossBattleshttps://brothersandbossbattles.com/

O fim da semana passada foi marcado por dois grandes rebuliços no meio dos videogames. O primeiro foi o fechamento inesperado da Bluepoint Games, cujo trabalho mais recente foi o remake de Demon's Souls e que, após ter sido adquirida por PlayStation, não lançou nenhum jogo. O outro foi a aposentadoria de Phil Spencer e a saída de Sarah Bond de Xbox, em uma mudança total de liderança no departamento.Participantes:Guilherme JacobsHeitor De PaolaAssuntos abordados:08:00 - PlayStation fecha a Bluepoint Games43:00 - Phil Spencer anuncia aposentadoria, Sarah Bond deixa Xbox1:12:00 - Pokémon FireRed e LeafGreen sairão para Switch por R$ 120 cada1:20:00 - Rápidas e curtasVai comprar jogos na Nuuvem?

In this episode, we're breaking down a week that has fundamentally shifted the tectonic plates of the gaming industry. First, we tackle the "Dream Team" success of Edmund McMillen's Mewgenics—a 14-year labor of love that proves deep, uncompromising design still wins. We also check in on the "Indie Renaissance" with the undercover alien chaos of Roadside Research and the friendship-ending, $8 orbital-laser mayhem of Super Battle Golf. Then, we shift to the "Big Two" and the strange decisions coming out of the corporate boardrooms. With Phil Spencer and Sarah Bond departing Xbox and Bluepoint Games officially shuttered by Sony, the leadership of console gaming is in a total state of flux. Why is PlayStation pivoting to a stylized Horizon live-service game that fans didn't ask for? Can the "New Guard" at Microsoft find a soul for Xbox? It's a discussion about creative risks, corporate safe-bets, and why the most exciting things in gaming right now aren't coming from the names you expect.

We were already recording this episode when unexpected news broke: Sony is shuttering Texas-based first-party remake and port specialist studio Bluepoint. Equally shocking -- when taking into context the many first and second party failures, flubs, and misalignments in recent years -- is PlayStation Studios lead Hermen Hulst still somehow having a job. Bluepoint has an exceptional pedigree alongside untapped potential, but that's been squandered by the same machinery that allowed them to make a multiplayer game in the first place. Who is responsible for all of this first party buffonery? What's with this obsession with established teams all chasing the same exact thing? And how lucky is Sony that the going is so good for PlayStation 5 that none of this really seems to matter? Here's hoping the bloodletting begins and ends here, but we're skeptical. Other news this week includes rumors of PlayStation 6's delayed timeline, when we might expect to see Santa Monica Studios' unannounced title, McFarlane Toys picking up the Sony toy license, and more. Then, we wrap things up with listener inquiries. On the back of Silent Hill: Townfall's PS5 console exclusivity, why does Sony bother chasing these deals these days? Does Fairgame$ have an icecube's chance in hell of succeeding? Will God of War's remake be one compilation or three separate games? Is Dustin ready for his fatherly snot-sucking duties?
