[♪ OUTRO MUSIC PLAYING [♪

Beyond and hello everyone, my name is Jonathan Dormbush and this is podcast Beyond Episode 600

and don't get the number on Jonathan 74, that's right, it's been a very busy week

and I've been writing a lot of things, so a lot of numbers and review scores have passed by my desk.

But of course, this is the last episode we're recording before the PlayStation 5 is available in some territories, unfortunately.

Most of the world won't see it until November 19th, but November 12th is the launch date for some territories

and so it will be out there in people's hands and we are going to be talking a lot about all of the launch games

that we've been playing can give impressions on so far.

And to do that with me this week, I'm joined by Max Gervil.

Hello!

Hello. Welcome back, also joined this week by Janet Garcia.

What's good?

And all the way from the other shores I was going to say across the pond, but my God is that set all the time.

Is Simon Cardi? Simon, thank you for joining us again.

Thank you for having me. We're in the mood of another lockdown here, so what better time to have a new console to play with?

Exactly, it is definitely not a bad time of year to have that effort to be in your locked room.

Okay, well, yeah, I'm trying to make so much, but no, the rest of the things going on notwithstanding,

it's a pretty exciting time for games and we will have a lot to talk about, obviously.

If you didn't already, please go check out last week's episode where we talked our broad impressions

on the hardware itself, the Astros Playroom, which is included for his packing and Marvel Spider-Man

Miles Morales, both of my reviews for those are on the website, of course. And if you haven't,

please go check out the official IGN PS5 console review, Luke Riley from our team did a fantastic job
