EP5: Launching the Next Generation

On today's launch week special, your hosts Elias and Chilekwa talk about next-gen (hereby know as current-gen), and go through the FOMO that comes with them not being able to secure either next-gen console. In the news, our hosts discuss recent revelations about the PlayStation 5, including confirmation that there will be no SSD support at launch, and reports that Sony has “sidelined” the launch of the PlayStation 5 in their homeland, Japan. And on this week’s topic of the show, next-gen is finally upon us, but it's bitter sweet, as our hosts have to watch from the sidelines as the future of console gaming unfolds. That, of course, doesn't stop them from sharing their strong opinions on the weeks events. As usual, thanks for listening, and we hope you enjoy this next-gen special.
