This episode I discuss how absolutely ridiculous the "console wars" really are. From click bait headlines, to arguing over logos, to not understanding the "specs", to not researching what hardware is actually in the plastic box you are buying. The big box gaming media sites are not doing anyone any favors as they seem just as uninformed and are trying to capitalize on click bait.

Stadia is insane, how haven't they solved the internet infrastructure problems in the world. I'm bringing back reviews and have already written most of my Luigi's Mansion 3 review. Bethesda is taking advantage of me with a Fallout 76 subscription model. Blizzard needs to be reprimanded even after we cancelled them after they layoffs they had earlier this year.

Is the Epic store and epic games growth strategy smart business, laziness, or BS? Might be all three. Gamers demand an easy mode in Sekiro Shadows Die Twice. What happened to Nintendo, they now specialize in forgettable and uninspired platformers and boring adventures.
