Summary

Next month, the long-in-development Avengers game comes to PlayStation 4 (it'll come to PS5 when the console launches, too), and there's a special sort of catch for Sony gamers: When Spider-Man arrives in Crystal Dynamics' long-awaited multiplayer adventure in 2021, he'll only be available within the ecosystem. That is to say, Xbox and PC players won't have access to arguably the biggest character in the entire experience. Is such a move a vestige of generations past? Or are the Big Three about to compete for every exclusive scrap like never before? We delve in. Then, in other news: PS4 continues to climb the historical sales charts, Street Fighter V is about to welcome four new challengers, 2020's Call of Duty is on the verge of being revealed, Ubisoft sheds more dead weight, and more. And in listener questions, we explore if visual novels are really video games per se, whether Wild is officially vaporware, if the so-called "Console War" between fans of the different consoles is getting better or worse, and if it's possible that Chris doesn't understand food. All of that -- and much more! -- on the other side of the play button. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

0:42.8	Doing pretty good. Doing pretty good. I've been taking so I got up really, really recently.
0:49.6	And I got to this weird, I had this weird dilemma where it's like, oh, what do I,
0:52.9	what do I eat? That's like super quick. And I had all these snacks available.
0:57.6	Just like all these like really quick, you know, like Cheetos and and then stuff like that.
1:02.2	And I'm like, Cheetos for breakfast doesn't sound good. So I settled on chunky chips of hoi
1:08.8	to get that kind of breakfasty kind of like, it's like a pastry, so it's almost a biscuit kind of thing.
1:14.1	Sure. You can get there in the end. Yeah, yeah. It's certainly a better, uh,

1:32.1	you know, like the generic cheese ball cheese, but you can say they think they're called. Yeah,
1:37.2	whatever they call you. Sometimes they come in these like gigantic cylindrical containers that
