175. Expedition GOTY 2025, Polygon Layoffs, and more!

from Arcade Cozy Hosted by Arcade Cozy

Episode Notes: Welcome back to Arcade Cozy! This week, we're talking a little bit of good, and a little bit of bad. First up, some bad news: gaming outlets Polygon and Giant Bomb both had some massive shakeups, numerous layoffs, etc. plus -- EA laid off about 400 employees, so we talk about all of that. Then, what we've been playing which has been pretty much entirely a little game called Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 (aka the internet's favorite new game)! It's a good episode, so cozy up -- we hope you enjoy it! Games discussed include Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Titanfall, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, Blue Prince, and more! Do you have thoughts on what we talked about today? Are there things that we missed? Or do you have a few games you'd like us to check out?
