Summary

By now, you've undoubtedly heard of the Coronavirus, a lethal illness originating in mainland China that has so far claimed the lives of more than a thousand people. What you may not have considered, however, is how this might affect PlayStation 5. No: We're not kidding. Game consoles are manufactured in Chinese factories, and it's entirely possible that Coronavirus could delay PS5's launch, a possibility so real that even a mainstream investment firm is warning its clients of such an eventuality. Should we really fear such a delay? Would Sony launch a supply-constrained console instead of being late to market? Do people really need to be eating bats to begin with? We discuss. This episode is chock-full of other news, too! Long-time Rockstar creative lead Dan Houser is leaving the studio he helped create, Sony shut down a first party studio that never so much as released a game, BioWare and EA simply won't stop trying to make Anthem happen, and much more. Also: Let's hear from you, dear listener! Has Chris been unexpectedly teaching Colin a thing or two about video games? How come Ninja Theory stopped working with Sony? Will we ever give Yakuza a chance? Should one listener return his old roommate's forgotten PlayStation 2 games, even if he hated that roommate? Let's go deep. Learn more about your ad choices.

0:49.2	How are you today, Chris? I'm feeling pretty good. I ate a lot of food last night,
0:54.0	so I'm feeling very rotund today. Very nice. Yeah. I don't know how to feel about that.
1:00.4	I'm not used to feeling well fed. Yeah, you don't eat a whole lot. You're a small young man,
1:06.3	you don't have a belly and you have a fast metabolism. This is the state that I'm always in.
1:11.9	I eat as everyone knows once a day and I just shove enormous amounts of food down my throat.
