Summary

This weeks show Darkestfrost joins the crew to discuss how awesome Arma is with Webby and we all reminisce about the good old days of Xbox when we had awesome times with 1 vs 100, the Xbox avatars and how Xbox used to feel like a community and how things have changed since the glory days. We also talk about how cool and ahead of its time Playstation Home was and how all these console community features have all but vanished!

We discuss Xbox doing a SEGA and going full multi-platform and how in some aspects its cool but in another it feels like a kick in the teeth to the hardcore Xbox fans who have stayed loyal to the brand since the beginning.

Games discussed include: Lonely Mountains Snow Riders, Arma, Ninja Gaiden 2 Black, Sniper Elite Resistence, Metro Vr, Resident Evil 4 VR, Assassins Creed Nexus, Hogwarts Legacy, Dead Island 2 and much more.

Quite alot of news this week including Xbox going to multiplatform on games that used to be considered huge exclusives, More layoffs at Bioware, Ubisoft rumoured to be going bankrupt, and more games being shutdown.
