Receipts vs. Rumors: Year-End Wrap Up

from The Scroll Hosted by LilacBoots

We’re closing out 2025 with a look at the data that defined the year. In this episode, we dive into the $197B industry numbers and the news that shaped the gaming landscape—including a brief, personal tribute to the legendary Vince Zampella, whose games were the reason I met many of my closest friends. Plus, it's a reality check on the year's top titles. Frank shares what he’s been playing this week, while I bring my Steam Replay 2025 receipts to show the actual hours behind my favorite games. We also break down the November hardware slump and what the GTA VI delay means for the 2026 hype train.
