    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.

    GTA 6 Has No Disc, Xbox Has No Easy Way Out | Triangle Squared Ep. 408

    GTA 6 preorders are here, but Rockstar's physical edition is already stirring controversy with no disc in the box. We dig into the $80 price point, whether GTA 6 changes the ceiling for AAA games, and what this means for physical collectors. Then we get into a rough week for Xbox: Call of Duty leaving day-one Game Pass, major Xbox Series X|S price increases, and reports that Microsoft may be looking to sell, spin out, or shut down studios like Ninja Theory, Double Fine, Undead Labs, Compulsion, and Arkane Lyon. We also talk LEGO Batman, Stalker 2, Mixtape, 007, short platinum trophies, and our top games of the year so far. Join us! New episodes post every other Wednesday at 12PM CST/10AM PST!

    Xbox Exclusives Are Back? Gears, Fable & Microsoft’s Big Console Problem | Triangle Squared

    Are Xbox exclusives officially back, or is this just another strange chapter in Microsoft's gaming strategy? This week on Triangle Squared: A PlayStation Podcast, we react to the latest Xbox Showcase and Nintendo Direct, breaking down the biggest reveals, surprises, and questions coming out of both events. Gears of War E-Day is now being positioned as an Xbox console exclusive, Clockwork Revolution looks genuinely fantastic, Fable brought back Jack of Blades, and Xbox suddenly seems interested in making exclusives matter again. But does any of this actually move the needle? We get into Xbox's identity crisis, whether Game Pass has changed the value of exclusives, what Asha Sharma's leadership could mean after Phil Spencer, and whether PlayStation players should believe these games are truly staying off PS5. We also discuss State of Decay 3, Halo Campaign Evolved, the Xbox 25th Anniversary console, Persona, Spyro, Final Fantasy, Nintendo's showcase strategy, and which company had the best showing overall.
