OK, then! We fell way behind our 2018 Game of the Year show and tried to get things going in May 2019. We haven't recorded a regular episode of the show since and find ourselves smack dab in the year 2020, two GOTY shows behind.
The solution? Adopting a new monthly format, baby! Going forward, news will take a backseat in favor of talking about the games we've played over the past few weeks. For now, though, we each talk about our own personal favorite games of 2018 and 2019 to offer some kind of Game of the Year content, dang it.
Oh, and the world as we knew it a year ago is upside down, and there's a whole new PlayStation coming. It's a big episode.
Talking Points: Where the damn hell have we been?!; disturbing allegations rock different parts of the entertainment industry; our favorite games of 2018; our favorite games of 2019; the PlayStation 5 is finally revealed.

On the latest episode of The Firmware Update, Joe and Malcolm talk all about the 2018 Game Awards as Joe's apartment is suddenly accosted by terrible, sporadic construction noise that he can't do anything about and forces the show to run shorter than planned. A real treat for the ears!

Ultimate is a love letter to video games; the actual awards given out by The Game Awards; Far Cry 5 gets a direct sequel; marvel at the return of Ultimate Alliance; one of the rare good non-Mario kart games gets its due; taking a trip to The Outer Worlds; a new Dragon Age is imminent, come hell or high water; Mortal Kombat 11 is gory as hell; Psychonauts 2 is coming along nicely; the first Smash DLC promises to take your heart.

On the latest episode of The Firmware Update, Joe has felt Tetris Effect's warmth and is ready to spread its gospel to all who will listen.
