    Kratos Will Return In Avenger's Doomsday | Triangle Squared Ep. 410

    God of War's future is beginning to take shape, with Laufey's upcoming adventure directly setting up the return of Kratos. We discuss what this means for the series, whether Santa Monica Studio should ever step away from God of War, and what we want from its next era. Obsidian, on the other hand, is officially returning to Fallout, Fallout 3 and New Vegas remasters are on the way, and Bethesda appears to have major plans for the franchise. We break down what Obsidian's involvement could mean, whether Xbox can make better games with smaller development teams, and why these announcements may have arrived when they did. Before the news, Brett finally gets pulled into Palworld, Chris shares his thoughts on Halo Campaign Evolved, and we discuss Saros, Returnal, Digimon Story Time Stranger, Kingdom Come Salvation, the latest PSN outage, and the never-ending physical-versus-digital debate.

    PlayStation Puts an Expiration Date on Physical Games | Triangle Squared Ep. 409

    Sony's reported plans to end physical disc production have reignited the debate over digital ownership, game preservation, rising prices, and what players actually own when they purchase a game. We discuss whether a digital-only PlayStation future is inevitable, what it could mean for collectors, and whether many longtime console players would finally move to PC. We also break down the approaching closure of the PS3 and PS Vita stores, Xbox's latest layoffs and studio restructuring, Obsidian's potential future with Fallout and The Elder Scrolls, and whether oversized AAA teams and layers of corporate management are making modern games more expensive and slower to develop. Plus, we discuss Palworld 1.0, Saros, LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight, the return of the PS3, the absurd price of retro CRT televisions, and whether any video game can truly be considered objectively good or bad.
