The aftermath of Halo Infinite is upon us. After covering the potential release of the multiplayer live, it is now here. Some bad, most of it VERY good. Beyond that, Matty and Paul dig into the latest confirmation in Xbox's lineup: Elder Scrolls VI will be exclusive. Not very noteworthy to some and that is precisely how it became our lead story. For not being real news, a lot of outlets and their reporting of the confirmation show a strange bias cropping up in the media. Furthermore, Activision continues to spiral downward as a pure embarrassment to our medium. With a story that is constantly developing, it's possible that it is out of date by the time it reaches free feeds, but it still must be discussed.

Yet again, Xbox has had new exclusives leak at the hands of Jez Corden. This time it is more on Obsidian as well as a project named Midnight which hails from recently acquired Compulsion Games.

A popping week is upon us! Halo Infinite has finally revealed its campaign (again) to the world and with it comes some expected revelations. 343 showcased an open world structure mirroring the fatigued design of Ubisoft games, a first time appearance in a skill tree, and side quests. Common ground for many modern games, but new for Halo. Bethesda continues to capitalize on Skyrim's adorations with a newly repackaged Anniversary Edition which has new content which was just detailed. Matty and Kopi sift through it all! Perhaps most pressing is the continued debate of whether or not it's proper to drink soda from a wine glass and what temperature it should be at. Matty attempts to defend his stance, but does he succeed? The audience shall decide and a verdict will be made next week...

Radio Live.

Xbox begins the celebration this week for the 20th anniversary of the brand. Can we expect more beyond some merch and hardware? Paul and Matty discuss their hopes and dreams for the anniversary in November as things heat up! These two also happened to review Far Cry 6 where they left with the same emotion: bleh. Far Cry 6 came across as uninspired to the duo during the review period, so it's time for a deep dive into why that is the case. Beyond that, some dude named Sora is added into Smash Ultimate and GTA Trilogy Definitive Edition is finally announced!
