Podcasts about Polygon

W dzisiejszym odcinku rozmawiamy o najważniejszej premierze mijającego tygodnia, nieciekawej sytuacji, która dzieje się wokół serwisów Polygon i Giant Bomb, a w sekcji gier mamy dla Was między innymi przedpremierową recenzję DOOM: The Dark Ages. Poza tym rocznica lądowania UFO w Emilcinie i urodziny Qbara. Nie wiem czy da się to przebić. W co graliśmy The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 DOOM: The Dark Ages Forumogadka to podcast poświęcony szeroko pojętej elektronicznej rozrywce w ujęciu odrobinę mniej poważnym i zdecydowanie mniej profesjonalnym.

A small studio of about thirty ex-Ubisoft developers have released an ambitious, critically and commercially acclaimed RPG called Clair Obscur: Expedition. Despite being made by such a small team, it's blowing the woke, bloated AAA industry out of the water. We discuss how the video game industry at large should be embarrassed by this indie game's success along with The Last of Us show's plummeting ratings due to the golf club scene, the racist recasting of The Last Airbender characters for upcoming sequel movies, Nintendo proving how much they suck lately by suing the makers of Palworld, Polygon's destruction, increasing Xbox prices, and more!

On this episode of The GAP Luke Lawrie and Joab Gilroy talk about going outdoors and leaving the house. The games they've been playing this week include DOOM: The Dark Ages, and that's it. Over in the news a new GTA 6 trailer drops, Giant Bomb and Polygon are hit with people leaving, Half-Life 3 might be out sooner than people think, Gears of War Reloaded is announced, EA is confident the next Battlefield will be out within a year. This episode goes for 1 hour and 35 minutes, it also contains coarse language. You can also check out Joab's book on Amazon.

Taiko is a decentralized, Ethereum-equivalent (type I) rollup scaling solution which uses ZK technology. Taiko's goal is to scale Ethereum efficiently while maintaining security and decentralization. Being a type I zkEVM, Taiko retains full Ethereum equivalence, which creates a seamless DevEx, although this comes at the expense of UX as slower proof generation is the main trade-off. Moreover, in order to stay true to its decentralised ethos, Taiko operates as a based rollup, meaning that transaction sequencing is performed by L1 validators.Topics covered in this episode:Joaquin's backgroundLoopring and Taiko's beginningsThe 4 types of zkEVMsTaiko's zk circuits vs. Polygon'sBased sequencingData availability and blob commitmentEthereum's role in the futureThe L2 landscape and its compromisesSequencer security modelDealing with MEVBased preconfirmations & Taiko ecosystem UXEpisode links:Joaquin Mendes on XTaiko on XLoopring on XSponsors:Gnosis: Gnosis builds decentralized infrastructure for the Ethereum ecosystem, since 2015.

In the news, Grand Theft Auto VI has been delayed until May 26th, 2026 and has a new trailer, Epic offers an olive branch to Apple, Polygon has been sold to Valnet, EB Games is back (in Canada), and Gears of War arrives on PlayStation this Summer.

Special bonus babblecast for you. We're mad about the news this week on videogame media folk at Giant Bomb and Polygon going the way of the dodo and wanted to celebrate their great work and consider the future for the shows and articles we love.Trigger warning, we're sad. Character issues 23 features the track Let's Go Up by Origami Repetika from the album The Happy Puppy Collection,  The song is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International.

In this episode of the Day 0 Update: We talk about how much of a bummer this week's news has been with layoffs at EA, the trouble Zenimax unions have had with Microsoft, and the shakeup to games media with Polygon and Giant Bomb. All this and more, up next!Full show notes can be found ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

A week that at first seemed a bit lacking in the news dept suddenly skyrocketed with a mixed bag of announcements from Microsoft including everything going up in price from consoles, accessories, and games to a positive quarterly earnings, and even Gears of War 1 Reloaded taking the series to PlayStation for the very first time. Then came the (not so) shocking news that Grand Theft Auto VI would be delayed to May 26, 2026 (and even this date is tentative) as one of the major pillars of "Survive to 2025" is now gone. Will the imminent launch of the Nintendo Switch 2 be enough? Sean and Marc take a look at all of this and question what's left out there that we know of for 2025. Plus, even more bad news: a double dose of layoffs at EA studios Respawn and Codemasters, with canceled games in tow as well. Marc beat Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, so he gives his final thoughts on the game. He also started Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, so the duo gets to continue talking about their journeys with the game, and Marc has some thoughts on it, too. Does he share Sean's high praise? Polygon gets sold to Valnet and immediately suffers major layoffs, a major shakeup at Giant Bomb happened too. Nintendo Switch virtual cards change how game sharing works on Switch, and much more!You can also watch this episode in video form on the W2M Network Youtube Channel, please give us a like, comment on the episode, and give the channel a subscribe and follow as well: https://youtube.com/live/zsgG5nCKugY

 While the Xbox console brand continues to wane, Microsoft's wise pivot to third party publishing is already paying dividends. According to recent financial reports, Xbox is now PlayStation's single biggest publishing partner, dominating PSN's very own pre-order and pre-load charts on the backs of Forza Horizon 5, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, and Doom: The Dark Ages, not to mention strong performance across its brands, from Activision Blizzard's Call of Duty to Mojang's Minecraft and beyond. It's weird, to be sure, but predictable, too: These one-time rivals are now intrinsically linked, with both sides benefiting mightily from this new normal. With Halo, Gears, Fable, and virtually everything else Xbox-related no doubt en route to PlayStation 5 as we move forward, how deep and fruitful can this new, unusual relationship become? Plus: Long-in-development China Hero Project darling Lost Soul Aside gets delayed, Borderlands 4 experiences the extremely rare move-up in release date, Electronic Arts lays off hundreds and cancels projects at Respawn, and more.

It's the Zenspath Entertainment Network Podcast Episode 171! Jeremy & Rachel are joined by Caleb as we talk about Microsoft increasing the price of Xbox & their games, Rockstar delays Grand Theft Auto VI to 2026, EA shuts down projects, has layoffs, & plans an update to Apex, Polygon is sold & gutted, Nintendo releases Virtual Game Cards, Genki is sued by Nintendo for Trademark Violation, & more. Our "Big Question" for this week is "With Microsoft moving towards select titles going to an $80 price point & Sony likely following suit soon…some are trying to blame this on Nintendo after they announced Mario Kart World's price of $80. Do you feel that this is Nintendo's fault for broaching that price or do you feel this was something in the works or even inevitable in the long run as development costs increase along with other outside factors?"

Polygon has been sold off at a fire sale price, and gaming journos are blaming... Gamergate. Yes, they're saying Gamergate and Steve Bannon were the reason that left-wing gaming journalism has ended, and that this is against the "free press." What year is it again?

We had a couple weeks of no bad news, but that all ended this week. If you don't want to hear me get angry and sad about the state of games media then you can skip this one. Xbox Prices go up, GTA VI delayed, Respawn layoffs, Giant Bomb and Polygon gutted. Only the most uplifting topics! Then we move on to what we have been playing! Both Matt and I played some Oblivion Remastered. I focused on Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, while Matt also played Forza Horizon 5 and Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii. I skip out on my top 10 update again since we went long. Will we finally do it next episode? Who could say.

This week's episode starts with news of Grand Theft Auto VI's delay, some sad news about Polygon and Giant Bomb, and some insane price hikes for Xbox hardware, before getting to what I've been playing with Peglin, KIBORG, MotoGP 25, and Steel Seed.

Paul is officially hooked on Clair Obscur and Sean dives into Blue Prince. News is quite a bummer this week as we talk about the recent layoffs at EA, Polygon, and Giant Bomb. TDP is listener funded.

This week saw the buying of Polygon (and subsequent layoffs), GiantBomb's implosion (and subsequent staff exodus) and in a bright spot Clair Obscur Expedition 33 released (it is great!) So, why is the industry seemingly cannibalizing itself at the height of its fortunes? Well, we've said it before: short term gains to entice investors. Alanah Pearce just did a deep dive video all about it. In her video she discusses an investment analysis of the video game market and she talks to investors to get their takes. We reference her video a lot because it confirms things we have said over the last year - now with hard data! Watch here: https://youtu.be/9HM9nmqNioQ?si=JNVKxNR0NTM0sEoQ

It's time for another round of listener questions as we each recover from the 50 hours of games we played for last week's episode.Did anyone need 100 minutes of mailbag questions? Probably not, but as ever: it happened.Note: we recorded this week's episode before the Polygon and Giant Bomb layoffs if the tone around the games media chatter seems off. Hosted on Acast.

The day after recording Remap Radio, a bunch of huge news broke, including the presumed deaths of beloved media outlets Polygon and Giant Bomb. They might continue to exist, but in what form? Plus, Xbox announced massive, sweeping, and unprecedented price hikes across hardware and software. Rob and Patrick hopped on to react in real-time and get really upset.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
