CORE 476: Death Standing Tall

We discuss our sleep schedules, gaming habits, and Xbox’s evolving hardware strategy. We share frustrations with Microsoft and Windows, and talk about competition between major gaming companies. We cover upcoming July games like Mecha Break, Micropunk, Donkey Kong Bonanza, Robocop: Unfinished Business, Wildgate, and Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound. We react to Death Stranding 2’s high early praise, debate Game Pass expansion, reminisce about retro toys like 2-XL and Hulkamania workout sets, and play a Final Fantasy Dear Martha. And some thoughts about Predator things for various reasons. :)GAMES PLAYEDScott:The MessengerSuper Mario Odyssey (more moon collecting)Red Faction: Guerrilla Re-Mars-teredJon:Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in HawaiiDate Everything!Beau:Elden Ring: NightreignMagic: The Gathering – Final Fantasy (limited draft)Valheim Hosted on Acast.
