When truly great games are delivered, players tend to respond. The industry's newest sales success is the long-awaited Kingdom Come: Deliverance sequel, which immediately sold a million copies upon release. But it's hardly alone. And the rest of this long year is already shaping up to be something special, with Metal Gear Solid Delta's release date leaking, Death Stranding 2's newest trailer drawing nearer, and EA's Battlefield finally toying with a real comeback. Other news this week includes the potential of a discless PlayStation 6, the arrival of more Xbox games on PS5 in the form of Age of Empires and Age of Mythology, Capcom's announcement of a port of PS2's Onimusha 2 for PlayStation 4, and more. Let's then round things out with listener inquiries, as is our tradition. What are our thoughts on the return of games media brand Rooster Teeth? Is Sony putting its own games on sale too quickly and too steeply, to its own detriment? Did EA executives really claim Dragon Age: The Veilguard failed because it wasn't live service? Will Colin ever recover from tendinitis, or are his weightlifting days over? Please keep in mind that our timestamps are approximate, and will often be slightly off due to dynamic ad placement.

The recent Xbox Developer Direct was... Pretty dang good. Refreshing after several years of lackluster showings. Shortly after, Phil Spencer gave an interview that added fuel to this new fire. Xbox is committing to a new philosophy. Will Sony change things up too? Nintendo? Ok, probably not Nintendo; things are going well for them.

Send us a textThe Game Awards are upon us & with it comes predictions. Which company will surprise with an unexpected announcement this year? Will Sony bring a major game reveal from Naughty Dog? Could Capcom share a first-look at an IP revival? Will Nintendo have any presence? Could we get a fresh look at The Outer Worlds 2? Will Elden Ring get more new content?We discuss our predictions for the show and more.Support the show

News is admittedly slow as the industry awaits major announcements at the imminent Game Awards. But a specific interview was recently released that still gives us plenty to discuss. The website Eurogamer sat down with ex-PlayStation executive Shawn Layden for a fascinating chat about the present and future of the console space, and he had tons to say. We spend a lot of time dissecting his thoughts on topics ranging from PlayStation 6 and console agnosticism to Sony publishing on Xbox and perhaps the most important issues of all: The cost to develop increasingly long and expensive games that few people even bother to beat. Other news this week includes the shuttering of Ubisoft's beleaguered shooter XDefiant, the announcement of a blatant ripoff of Guerrilla's Horizon series called Light of Motiram, FromSoft's puzzling claim that it's not working on an Elden Ring sequel, and more. Listener inquiries help us round things out, per usual. Is Sony quietly giving PSVR2 a new push? How can Square Enix still be publishing PS1 games? Will Sony's E3 2013 'game sharing video' truly resonate throughout time? When will the audience learn that -- yes, indeed! -- you should definitely listen to our rock-solid relationship advice?

Not the record it wanted... But a record nonetheless. In a shock move, just 10 days after it released, Sony announced that Concord is being pulled offline, and the dozens who bought it will get refunds. Does this mean that it is dead forever? There's some debate. It could come back as F2P - but then it may also just get totally shelved. This is probably very bad news for Sony's next big Live Services game, Marathon. Will Sony, and the industry at large learn a lesson from this? Yes. Will it be the right lesson? No.

Show Notes On this week's podcast, Dan and Kris board bring you the 2024 SAG State of the Union. How are things going for the major platform holders? Where is the all-important Intellivision brand? What will Microsoft do to solve their ongoing identity crisis? Will Nintendo drop the ball on the Switch's successor? Will Sony learn from past mistakes, or continue with all hubris all the time? Let's discuss! At the top of the show, Dan managed to adopt out a few more puppies without missing a beat in Marvel Snap. He also has a very sore mouth, a trend that seems to be plaguing this podcast these days. Meanwhile, Kris drove himself mad trying to finish his latest Mario history video, enjoyed the wonders of Runner2, and began the review processes on The Jeff Minter Story and Princess Peach: Showtime. In Week Old News, Warner Bros. continues their assault on all things decent by threatening to remove a bunch of Adult Swim games from existence for no good reason, Nintendo wins a court case which makes the internet explode in a thinly veiled onslaught of entitlement, the guys discuss the tragic loss of Akira Toriyama, and more!

For the first time in the history of the gaming industry, a major piece of hardware is getting a price increase across virtually the entire world. PlayStation 5, launched in 2020 at $500 or your local equivalent, will still cost that much (with a disc drive) here in the States. But virtually everywhere else in the world -- from the UK and Europe to Australia, Japan, and beyond -- PS5's price is about to go up modestly, but noticeably. Sony no doubt isn't taking this PR catastrophe lightly -- you have to imagine there's a need here -- and, indeed, this highly-controversial will help them make an additional half-a-billion bucks this year alone. But with market conditions as they are, inflation running rampant, and production as trying as ever, the only question is whether any of their competitors follow-suit, and whether Sony itself is done upping the ante. Other news includes the reveal of PlayStation's long-awaited Elite-style controller called DualSense Edge, confirmation that PSVR2 will launch in early 2023, release dates for Dead Island 2, Sonic Frontiers, and more. and so on. Then, we wrap things up (as we always do) with listener inquiries. What's with some outlets slamming Saints Row, then accepting money to promote it anyway? Is it becoming increasingly difficult to avoid the industry's inherent negativity? Will Sony ever begin caring about their PlayStation Mobile initiative? Should one listener's public bathroom encounter have left him as scared as it has? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Sony has announced a shock price rise for the PlayStation 5, and in a Eurogamer Newscast special, we're here to discuss why the company has pulled this undoubtedly unpopular move - and why it's likely to get away with it. Will Sony sell fewer PS5s as a result? It seems unlikely. But it's more pressure on PlayStation, which has already had to defend its £70/$70 price point for games - including the upcoming The Last of Us: Part 1 remaster - and just this week announced an expensive-looking new PlayStation 5 controller. At a time when all of us are looking at our bank balance's bottom line, an extra £30 to buy a PS5 marks not just an unprecedented decision by Sony, but a troubling sign of the times. Will Microsoft now feel emboldened to follow suit, or soak up any extra costs as a point of difference? Tom Phillips, Ed Nightingale, Victoria Kennedy and Ishraq Subhan discuss.

This week McWomble rants about FIFA (again). Mitch finds a drink better than Red Bull (which is basically every drink). Then we talk about who Microsoft, Playstation & Nintendo should buy up. Will Microsoft go into the home appliance business? Should Nintendo start a fast food chain? Will Sony buy Microsoft to give Halo back to Bungie? Nothing is too far fetched.

Bloomberg says that project Spartacus is right around the corner with its big reveal. Will Sony give us worse gamepass, or will they find a way to make something cool? Matt finished Horizon, and we both played some Tunic. I should be done this week, so look forward to my final thoughts. To finish it off Matt pulled trophy data for some PS4 games and I try to figure out which one had a higher completion percentage!

A saintly beer brewed by Belgian Trappist monks sets the tone for an episode of reflection! Microsoft is going all-in on gaming buying Acitivision Blizzard. What does this mean in the console war? Is Gamepass the de facto Netflix of gaming? Will Sony respond? Is this a win for the PC? Hollywood is still obsessed with sequels and reboots, but has it gone too far? We discuss the final Bond, the latest Matrix and Spiderman.

Microsoft -- as it's wont to do -- just went and spent a bunch of money on a publisher. But this is no ordinary publisher or forgettable amount of money: By buying Activision-Blizzard for a record $68.7 billion, Xbox now controls some of the industry's most vital IP and studios, including the king of them all, Call of Duty, and its constellation of developers, including Infinity Ward and Treyarch. Yet, Microsoft's bullish move will likely set off an even-further damaging series of mergers and acquisitions that remove risk for certainty and eliminates creativity for volume. It amounts to a very stupid arms race that everyone else will be compelled to compete in, whether they want to or not, and there's only one entity to blame. Then: Release dates for Ghostwire Tokyo, LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, and WWE 2K22 have emerged, God of War does big numbers on PC, Sony renews trademarks related to defunct first party team Psygnosis, and more. Then: Listener inquiries! What's our temperature on Horizon: Forbidden West less than a month away from launch? Are we not keeping an open enough mind when it comes to the possibilities of gaming NFTs? Will Sony botch the little things that could make Project Spartacus shine? Is David Jaffe more attractive than Colin Moriarty? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Tony Northrup and Chelsea review the hits and misses of their 2021 predictions and also make camera predictions for 2022. Will Sony release a Z5 competitor? Will Canon release a high res R5 called the R5C? Will Nikkon release long glass for their wildlife capable Z9?

Whether PS Spartacus Service could be a rival or competitor to Microsoft Xbox Game Pass without any first-party games being day and date with this service. What we would like to see the combination of PlayStation plus or ps plus for short with PlayStation Now or PS Now. Will Sony give us exclusive content like Crunchyroll, or some of the hidden gems like music or movies? Maybe discounts on new PlayStation games? The list is long and the potential is there. Okay enough SEO now the next thing we're talking is Geof Keighley's Game Awards 2021 and how the game awards fell in hot water with Activision and how theirs the president of Activision sitting on the board of the awards when Geoff says that he will not keep the same energy with Kojima and Konami that he has for Activision. PlayStation fires their head exec of the PSN over him being a creepy guys and how the industry could take some pages out of how Sony handled the situation.

The Game Awards are upon us once again & that means it is time to give our predictions on what Nintendo, Microsoft, and Sony may have planned in terms of reveals during the show. Will we get a fresh look at Hellblade 2? Will Nintendo share a new trailer for Breath of the Wild 2? Will Sony secure Chrono Cross as a PS5 exclusive? And will Epic Games reveal a first look at Alan Wake 2? Furthermore, we share our thoughts on who could win some of the key categories, including the coveted: Game of the Year.

With The Game Awards 2021 looming, the lads discuss the most interesting thing…the reveals! Which game reveals do we want to see at this year's ceremony? Will Sony, Nintendo & Microsoft hand over some juicy material to Geoff? Will we get any huge nuclear announcements that will set fire to the internet? All these questions and more are answered. Oh, they also predict who will win Game of the Year.They round the episode out with full impressions of Psychonauts 2. This creative multiplatform game has garnered a strong critical response but is it ultimately held back by some rough edges?Idle Game Chat is available to listen on your favourite podcast app or you can watch the show on YouTube or Facebook!

Activision Blizzard CEO Bobby Kotick is facing one of the most precarious times of his long reign at the video game publisher. Now, employees are signing non-anonymous petitions to see him removed, charities are walking out on potential paydays, and, perhaps most importantly, Xbox is joining PlayStation in expressing its concern. Words may be wind, but they may also signal a potential for something more...in Virtual Legality.

We have some awesome news for long-time PlayStation fans: The Mother of Uncharted, Amy Hennig, is finally returning with something new. Seriously. And it's just in the nick of time, since it's been a staggering 10 years since Uncharted 3 launched on PS3, which was her last brainchild. Heck, it's been nearly eight years since she left Naughty Dog! So it's great to know what she's working on next, but there's a catch, of course: She's making a Marvel game. And thus, both the excitement and complaining begin in earnest, and naturally, we must take part. Other news also crossed our desk this week, including the $50 million loss Take Two is taking on a cancelled game codenamed Volt, the going-public nature of publisher Devolver Digital (which Sony now owns 5% of), the potential rise of a true AAA console game out of China, Call of Duty 2022 rumors, and so much more. We also get into listener questions, as is our wont. Will Sony ever create a dedicated PC launcher? Did Guardians of the Galaxy benefit greatly from not being overexposed? Is there a stigma attached with Game Pass games? Did Chris accidentally leave his "jerk tissues" in-frame? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Here are all of the questions we answer this week: - What did you think of the new Justice League and Gotham Knights trailers? - What are your favorite Batman games? - Can you play Back 4 Blood solo? - Can Playground Games be Xbox's Insomniac Games? - Is Nintendo's upcoming updated online service worth it? - Will Sony merge PlayStation Now and PlayStation Plus? - What are your favorite racing games from the 32-bit era? - What 2022 games will be delayed to 2023? - Which modern games had the worst controls?

God Almighty, it's finally happened: The long-rumored (and much-leaked) Castlevania Advanced Collection is indeed coming to PlayStation 4. Actually, it's available right now, bringing along with it some wondrous vampiric action out of the clear blue sky (or dark night). Surprise! Then, in another piece of news that can only be described as For Colin, Square Enix randomly revealed a remake of 1991's SNES classic ActRaiser, also available now. Talk about random (and awesome). For many, though, the bigger news of the week will be word of former Sony second party partner Quantic Dream reportedly making a Star Wars game. And it's apparently not the Star Wars game you'd expect, leaving us much to discuss. Also percolating are some new THQ Nordic announcements, some key secrets hidden in both PS4's and PS5's recent firmware update, and even rumors that famous fighting game Marvel vs. Capcom 2 may be making a comeback. Then, as is typical, we like to wrap things up with your inquiries. Will Sony ever update the PlayStation Plus Collection? Was the PlayStation 3 generation one of gaming history's very best? Could Microsoft's next purchase set off a cascade of bad press for the Xbox brand? Will Chris finally test the very boundaries of his mysterious and arcane powers? Learn more about your ad choices.
