Timestamps and Topics: 00:00 – Introduction and catching up with Thomas 00:10 – Drax vs. Chewbacca: Who would win? 00:25 – Patreon update and exclusive early access for members 00:40 – The fall of Multiversus and the future of live-service games 01:00 – The rising cost of video games: Are $100 base games justified? 01:20 – Chris Evans denies returning for Avengers: Doomsday—is he lying? 01:35 – Hollywood's future: LA vs. Atlanta and tax credits battle 01:55 – Neil Gaiman's controversy and the impact on The Sandman and Good Omens 02:20 – Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey and its insane cast list 02:35 – Review: Your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man – Is it worth watching? 02:55 – Geek Freaks Network updates and upcoming content Key Takeaways: Drax vs. Chewbacca: Drax has the upper hand in close combat, but Chewie's bowcaster could be a game-changer. Live-service gaming struggles: The failure of Multiversus highlights the industry's shift away from the live-service model. $100 games: Rockstar's rumored GTA 6 pricing raises concerns about the future affordability of video games.

After all this time of waiting, the leaks were right, the Nintendo Switch 2 was officially announced on Thursday and it is certainly a bigger Switch 1 with some cool features such as the magnetic attaching joycons, what looks like joycons that can be used as a mouse, and Mario Kart 9 shown as the lone game. Does this satiate Sean and Marc for now? Is April 2 too long of a time to wait for more information? And does this change their thought on when the system releases? Also, Sony made waves by canceling another set of live service games. Including a Bluepoint studio-led God of War multiplayer title and the Studio Bend title as well. What does this say about Sony's comprehensive push into live service? Do we have faith in any of the remaining games on the slate? And why not cancel more of them? Plus, news about Xbox seeing its demise back in 2021 before buying Bethesda, Guillemots, and Tencent looking to spinoff Ubisoft, why there isn't a Bloodborne remake/remaster, Sean's played the First Berzerker Khazan and the Rift of the Necrodancer demo, and 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/qvWq-t0yHZUListen as a podcast and give us a review on these platforms...

The trio explores why some games succeed while others languish, including insights on monetization strategies reminiscent of mobile games.Lastly, they ponder the future viability of the live service model in gaming, hoping for a more diverse and experimental landscape.

Lollipop Chainsaw is back! Lollipop Chainsaw is back! FINALLY!  We're very excited about the imminent re-release of the game with the cheerleader, her mini-skirt, and all them zombies to slay. But we're also very interested to see if the discourse behind this game has changed in any way, because it was once a very controversial title indeed.  Elsewhere on the podcast we also discuss the inglorious fate of Concord and the seemingly inevitable decline of live service games. The market is demonstrating that it has firmly met its saturation point and it is almost certainly a case of diminishing returns for anyone that tries to do another one now. And of course, we talk through all the games releasing for the rest of September. There's A LOT.

Send us a textWhat happens when a game rooted in Chinese mythology shatters sales records? Join us on the Gamer Traffic Show as we celebrate the phenomenal success of "Black Myth Wukong," which moved over 10 million copies in just 83 hours. Mike Sampson and Mr. Amazing dive into the game's rich narrative inspired by "Journey to the West," while also addressing some technical hiccups on PS5 and PC. We even touch on a unique modded version featuring Goku and debate the implications of its absence from Xbox due to the Series S's limitations.Next, we tackle the hot-button issue revolving around Disney's controversial wrongful death lawsuit. Initially barred from suing due to a clause in the streaming service agreement, massive public backlash forced Disney to reverse its stance. Kudos to them for that! We then express our disappointment with the lackluster performance of the movie "Borderlands," which has flopped critically and commercially, earning scathing reviews from Metacritic, Rotten Tomatoes, and Rolling Stone.Finally, we explore Nintendo's current market position and the potential for the Nintendo Switch to surpass the PlayStation 2's sales record. What could the anticipated Nintendo Switch 2 mean for the industry? We also share our mixed reactions to the trailer for "Captain America: Brave New World." And in a surprising twist, we reveal an unexpected collaboration between Nintendo and Xbox that allows Nintendo Switch Online subscribers to access an Xbox game for free. Wrapping up, we discuss Sony's struggles in the live service game market, highlighting the underwhelming performance of titles like "Concord" and looking ahead to future hits like "Helldivers 2.
