03:58 Welcome/Upcoming Event: SEVERED STEEL creator is here this THURSDAY! Some details!
05:39 Nintendo's New Switch- my thoughts. AKA: Why are they making this?!?
7:29 Metroid Dread release date revealed and my thoughts on the title so far...
12:56 Has Nintendo lost its magic touch?!?

15:13 Is video game hype dead? And if it is...why?

(included in this segment:
-thoughts on the new STATE OF PLAY coming Thursday
-does the hard core/enthusiast gaming crowd need a big event even tho the biz does not?

18:18 Sony 1st party release output could be its biggest weakness this generation
33:20 My theory on why the new Guardian's Of The Galaxy game looks super 'meh'...
(hint: Avengers game suffered from the same problem; Spider-Man did not)

45:33 Is Gamepass keeping people from buying games?!? And if it is, is that- MAYBE- a really good thing for game design?

55:08 Day One Patch Kids- one of our fantastic sponsors who makes some of the funniest, coolest gaming related merch on the planet! Check them out right here: www.dayonepatchkids.com


56:13 Is the new game DETAINED: TOO GOOD FOR SCHOOL fun and sexy? Or part of the problem with sexualizing young women (and men, to a lesser but still relevant extent) in our culture? I am genuinely torn for reasons we discuss in this segment of the show.

1:12:45 Why in the WORLD would ANYONE decide to make AAA video games in this day and age?!?
1:31:41 Rest In Peace, good sir (and amazing 70/80's movie director) Richard Donner (aka besides being sad, his death also makes me think about what it means to be a fan and what it means to have fans of the work me and the teams I've worked with have created)

1:35:13 Superchat from Jonathan Martinez 'Is there more talent in video games today vs. back in the day?' My answer is/was YES...and here's why.



1:37:25 Andy Lee calls in with these questions:

a- can game devs make games and still have the time and/or desire to stay current on other games and other pop culture hits/touchstones.
b- Can game developers (or any creator in any medium) ever separate from the work and consume media as a pure consumer?

1:44:57 Wrap Up/Thanks! :)
