Twitch was hacked and has now experienced a huge leak which was posted on 4chan which included source code, secure information, and the thing everyone has been focusing on this week… a detailed list of every top streamer’s income from the platform.

xQc, Tfue, Shroud, Pokimane, and the top 10,000 streamers have all had their direct income from Twitch subs and donations revealed to the public.

This information wasn’t actually very obscured at all with publicly available sub counts and everyone knows top streamers make a lot of money but having it all laid out with a specific number attached to everyone's favorite streamer has certainly overtaken the discourse online this week.

Apparently, more information was obtained via the hack and will be subsequently leaked in the future.

In other news; Elden Ring is almost done, Ghost Recon fans are pissed the new Frontline game, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate has announced Sora as their final character, and Randy Pitchford is changing job at Gearbox.

This week’s 5-Second Review takes Brian back to the days of his video gaming youth and the Coming Soon section is bringing Back 4 Blood and a couple collections you might not want to miss!

Have a great weekend and thanks for watching everyone!
