It’s episode 666, so naturally we spent a chunk of it assigning the Seven Deadly Sins to the gaming industry’s worst offenders. Unity took Greed for trying to charge developers retroactively per install (still unforgivable). AI took Gluttony. Microsoft took… also Gluttony, basically. Luke took Sloth personally and voluntarily. Chris Roberts, who has been making Star Citizen sinc...

Nathan Fielder moved into Elizabeth Holmes’ house for 10 days before she went to jail, made a documentary about it, and somehow it’s rated R for graphic nudity. We have no idea what’s going on and we cannot wait. Also: Luke watched all of Silo Season 3 instead of going for a swim (the pool wasn’t warm enough), Matt went to see the Jonas Brothers and actually enjoyed it (bei...

Luke goes full cinema hermit and catches two movies in one day — the 40th anniversary of Transformers: The Movie (verdict: fun but makes absolutely no sense, Hot Rod forever) and Zach Cregger’s Resident Evil (verdict: actually good, go see it, the padlock jokes are perfect). Meanwhile Matt is still playing Yoshi and the Mysterious Book with his daughter, who apparently blasted through the new Blue...

Luke’s three VBs in not hungover this week, so prepare for some high energy discussion of the week’s going on!

This week Microsoft quietly kneecaps Xbox Cloud Gaming with new monthly hour limits, and they’re also keeping the tariff refunds. The future of gaming may not be financially viable? ‘The Trial of Alec Baldwin,’ Rory Kennedy Doc About Titular Actor in ‘Rust’ Shooting Aftermath, Acquired by Abramorama (Exclusive) Xbox Cloud Gaming Will Soon Get More Expensive for the Players Who Use It Most Microsof...

Xbox's limited-edition green throwback console sold out in under a minute this week, and is now sitting on eBay for $3,300 AUD. Reasonable? You be the judge. Actually no, we’ll be the judge. That’s ridiculous. Squadrom 42 delayed... again. The scam continues! : r/pcmasterrace Apple's Polishing Cloth is back for $9 Xbox Disc To Digital Insiders Ikea’s Xbox collection includes a giant thumbs...

Luke's back from the actual flu (not the fake flu, the 'couldn't get an achievement for 5 days' flu), and Matt's walking around post-spinal surgery like a champ, albeit with a physiotherapist who apparently learned her craft from a Bond villain Star Citizen Developer Stream Goes Horribly Off The Rails Creating Further Distrust Among Players "Wolverine" Game Under Bruc...

We're back, baby! Matt had surgery, Luke got sick, got better, went back to work, and got sick again with something different. Classic Luke. Anyway, we pushed through because we missed you.

This week we wonder how Nolan made a $250 million movie that looks like The Odyssey, while Moana 2 cost the same amount and looks like... Moana 2. 'The Mandalorian & Grogu' Officially Surges to No. 1 as Instant Digital Hit in Just 24 Hours Whoopi Goldberg Slams Transphobic Critics of Elliot Page’s Casting in ‘The Odyssey’: ‘Then Don’t Go See It… Why Do You Care Who’s Cast in It?’ ‘The Odyssey’...

Luke is back from hospital where he apparently has built up a full tolerance to ketamine ('I have no idea what people are going on about') and Matt is falling apart at the spine. It's fine. Everyone's fine. Somehow they still watched a bunch of movies and have opinions. id creative director says they were not completely nerfed BBC Officially Responds to 'Doctor Who' Cancell...

So Taylor Swift got married, Adam Sandler officiated (yes, really, no one knows why either), and you could buy 'wedding memorabilia' off a New York street artist - including a used ovulation test - for $25. We live in a society. Then there's the Xbox stuff, which is a lot. Like, a LOT. Thousands of jobs gone, Double Fine just... set free, id Software's programmers shown the door (g...

Luke went to see Supergirl and came back mostly flat. His verdict: he laughed once. Xbox prices are going up GTA 6 Will Just Be A Code In A Box At Launch With No Disc Steam Machine Review Steam Machine Richard Garriott Wants To Take Ultima Back From EA The villain in Spider-man Brand New Day hasn't been revealed yet ‘World War Z’ Officially Returns With New Sequel in Development

Matt beat an innocent stranger to death with a rock this week. Listen to find out what the hell that's about. We get into the Xbox chaos (Ninja Theory gone, Elder Scrolls 6 still apparently coming in 2028 or possibly never, Tim Schafer potentially going indie), the Commodore flip phone that blocks social media and may or may not be purchased by Luke on the spot, why Ridley Scott doing Treasure...

Luke spent many hours at the cinema this week, drinking his way through five movies, then got on a kick scooter and came straight to record a podcast. I tried Siri AI, and so far it actually works George Miller Has "Mad Max" Film & TV Plans Steven Spielberg Says James Bond Movies ‘Constantly Turned Me Down’ and ‘If They Asked Me Now’ to Direct the Answer Would Be: ‘You Can’t Afford M...

Luke's heroics at a pub meat raffle set the tone for this week's episode. When a man grabs a woman's arm on the dance floor he'll be there, like a red bearded Batman. An 83-year-old man's retirement fund - a warehouse's worth of vintage Star Wars LEGO he's been sitting on since the '90s - is stuck in the middle of one of the strangest internet dramas going right now...

Luke Skywalker blowing up Jabba's sail barge is the greatest war crime in Star Wars history. Not the Death Star - a military target, the sail barge full of slaves and service workers. Luke knew exactly what he was doing and he chose evil. This is the kind of analysis you get here. Neighbours VS Zombies Part 1 HALLOWEEN SPECIAL - YouTube YouTube to begin automatically labeling AI videos Subnaut...

Somehow a conversation about the Grogu movie leads to the discovery that Neighbours made a zombie spin-off in 2014 and it's available on YouTube. That's the kind of episode this is. Along the way: William Shatner publicly calling his own Magic: The Gathering card AI-generated garbage, Matt's genuine distress over not being able to enjoy Stardew Valley, Luke owning 12 boxes of Heroes of...

Luke slept 18 hours before this episode because he was up until 3 AM playing Forza Horizon 6. That's the kind of dedication that costs nearly $200 when you factor in the premium upgrade. Meanwhile Matt was over here still playing Conan Exiles Enhanced on GeForce Now and trying to figure out mod management on a streaming service (spoiler: it's a nightmare). We also talked about: Mixtape on...

Nicolas Cage is playing Spider-Man in a black-and-white 1950s noir series that's out at the end of this month, and somehow that's not even the wildest thing discussed this week. Asha Sharma quietly killed Xbox's Copilot integration, an AI assistant that was officially announced as recently as March. Luke is so relieved he can barely contain it. Between that, the price cuts, and the ach...

Luke left a Rabbitohs game at halftime (they were up 24-0, which apparently is suspicious rather than reassuring) to record this, so you're welcome. The big Xbox news: Game Pass is cheaper now, but Call of Duty won't be day one anymore because apparently people were actually buying it and Microsoft noticed the gap in their wallet. Project Helix will be a real Xbox you can buy — not just a...

Artemis 2 is back on Earth after 9 days in space, and the crew broke records. Elsewhere: Amazon is having a rough week, RAM and SSD prices are spiking, Xbox Achievements are getting a long-overdue update and Karl Jobst has filed a new defamation lawsuit against Billy Mitchell. All that and more this week on (probably) your favourite podcast! First photos of solar eclipse from Artemis II crew look...

It's that special time of year when Matt and Jenna get to go to PAX East and Luke gets to be jealous. He'll have his revenge in October at PAX Aus, and then it'll be their turn to cry.
