About this episode
The latest landscape of interactive entertainment presents a striking study in corporate consolidation and preservation, as Microsoft expands Xbox backward compatibility to PC players while European regulators clear Saudi Arabia's historic $55bn acquisition of Electronic Arts. Meanwhile, Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced has posted a formidable three million sales in its opening week, underscoring an enduring commercial appetite for modernized heritage titles alongside Bethesda's ambitious Fallout roadmap and Jagex's expanding ambitions for RuneScape.
In this week's episode, hosts Gary Blower, Jerome, and Taylor weigh in on these macro industry shifts before turning to their individual highlights. Their weekly picks span the hardware charm of the Super Pocket Rare edition and HERO GP, the indie allure of Vampire Crawlers, and a sharp retrospective on Batman Beyond's rogues' gallery. #gameburst
