The Weekly Stuff #324 – PS5 Controller, Resident Evil 4, Google Stadia & Listener Mail

It’s a fun grab-bag style episode this week, as we have one big ticket news item – the reveal of the PlayStation 5 controller – and a lot of other random topics, including some great listener mail! First, we tell some more stories from life in the Coronavirus lockdown, including Jonathan drowning his classmates in Terraria. Then, we look back on the masterpiece that is Capcom’s Resident Evil 4, which Jonathan just played for the first time, and discuss the rumor that Capcom may be developing a remake which sounds wholly unnecessary and foolhardy. After debating the apparent strengths and weaknesses of Sony’s new PS5 controller, the ‘DualSense,’ we talk about our experiences trying out Google Stadia during its new free trial period, and we close with a big batch of awesome listener mail questions, ranging from serious to silly. Time Chart: Intro: 0:00:00 – 0:08:40Stuff: 0:08:40 – 0:31:42Resident Evil 4: 0:31:42 – 0:59:22PS5 Controller: 0:59:22 – 1:37:45Google Stadia: 1:37:45 – 2:01:52Listener Mail: 2:01:52 – 2:39:52Subscribe to The Weekly Stuff Wordcast Newsletter!Subscribe to our YouTube Channel!Subscribe for free to 'The Weekly Stuff' in iTunes!Follow Jonathan Lack on Twitter!Follow Sean Chapman on Twitter!
