647: Xbox is the new Xbox
from Multiple Nerdgasm · host Matt, Luke and Dan
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 chip inside someone else's handheld — though the 'available as' phrasing has Matt convinced ASUS will also be selling one. The Black Flag remaster looks sick in motion even if some of the screenshots are weirdly picked. Conan Exiles is getting a free UE5 glow-up on PC, which interrupted Matt's current Dune Awakening era where he basically just pops in every few days to top up his shields. In other news: the guy who leaked the new Avatar movie is in serious trouble in Singapore (Luke's taxi driver once warned him not to pick up a leaf from the ground there, so yeah, that tracks). Tim Cook is out at Apple. And somehow they ended up talking about a 1994 Super Nintendo game that was originally going to be a Hellraiser shooter.
