It's been a regular feature on Waypoint's streams this year, but still we wonder, how deep does Rob's love for Warhammer 40k really go? He's gathered a cadre of fellow Warhammer 40k enthusiasts, including Motherboard's managing editor Emanuel Maiberg, staff writer Matthew Gault, and special guest: Nextlander's own Vinny Caravella! They journey through each-other's Warhammer origin stories, discuss their favorite bits of lore, and agree that the tabletop game is too much for them, but hey at least there's a ton of video games to check out.

On this episode of Video Games 2 the MAX hosts Sean Garmer and Marc Morrison are joined by the Outerhaven’s (https://www.theouterhaven.net/) Karl Smart in discussing two games he reviewed in New Pokemon Snap and Resident Evil Village. Marc also finished Returnal and has his final thoughts on the game. He also started an indie game called Insurmountable and gives his initial impressions of it as well. The trio also gets into Microsoft not making a profit on the Xbox consoles themselves and how this being made into a much bigger deal than it actually is. Sony is also possibly facing a lawsuit regarding their decision to keep digital game codes away from other retailers. Who has a point here? Could Sony actually have to reverse their decision? And is this even worth fighting about? Since this was a major topic on social media in the last week, the guys give their thoughts on the game review discourse. Should games always be finished before reviewing them? Are there times where it is excusable not to finish a game before reviewing it? The reality of an embargo and why more gaming sites should push them if a review isn’t ready and also why many don’t do it and why there should be more understanding on all sides about it in general. Finally, E3 2021 is only a month away and we begin looking at what could be announced at the show from Nintendo’s side and some things we’d like to see as well. Other things discussed on the show: Yakuza Staying a JRPG, the Giantbomb exodus, EA purchases Super Mega Baseball developer, TimestampsGames We Are Playing: Resident Evil Village (2:50) (Karl)Returnal (13:55) (Marc) New Pokemon Snap (20:30) (Karl)Insurmountable (27:40) Marc Marc gets scammed at Used Game Store (29:40)Headlines: Xbox consoles don’t make a profit (39:40)Yakuza Stays as a JRPG (101:45)Sony Trademarks Sunset Overdrive (107:40)Super Mega Baseball Developer is Purchased by EA (109:40)Brad Shoemaker, Alex Navarro, and Vinny Caravella leave Giantbomb (116:50)Major Topics: Sony faces a lawsuit for not allowing digital game sales in stores (44:50) Game Review Discourse: Do you have to finish a game?

This is it folks and the whole family is here to sendoff the number one podcast in the universe!
With the shocking announcement of the departures of Giant Bomb mainstays Vinny Caravella, Alex Navarro, and Brad Shoemaker, the future of the fan favorite video game crew (and personality-based media progenitors) is in question. But what effect did the purchase of CNET Media Group (parent to Giant Bomb) to venture capital firm Red Ventures have on the future of Giant Bomb? How do purchasers often protect themselves with contract language and incentives in the case of a purchase? And what does Vinny have to say about the contract question? We salute a crew that helped alter the modern video game media landscape...in Virtual Legality.
