    2nd Opinion Podcast topic dump (living document for show topics add as you find) 5-17-2026 Best Buy tells affiliates it’s starting GTA 6 pre-orders next week, sparking speculation that a new trailer is coming During a livestream earlier today, YouTuber Frogboyx1Gaming was checking his phone when he received an email from Best Buy’s affiliate program. The email informed him that a pre-order campaign for physical copies of Grand Theft Auto 6 would take place from May 18 to 21, with affiliates eligible to receive 5% for each sale they link to. Link to Article: https://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/best-buy-tells-affiliates-its-starting-gta-6-pre-orders-next-week-sparking-speculation-that-a-new-trailer-is-coming/ Capcom just sold more games than in any year in its history.. In total, Capcom sold 59.07 million games during the business year, up from 51.87 million in the year prior. This figure was driven overwhelmingly by sales of Resident Evil games. Notably, Resident Evil Requiem, released in February, sold nearly 7 million units by the end of March. Capcom said 83.7% of its game sales came from older ‘catalog’ titles, while a huge 93% of the games it sold were digital download versions. Looking forward, the company said it anticipates net sales of 210,000 million yen and operating profit of 83,000 million yen, which would result in ten consecutive years of record high profit for the company. https://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/capcom-just-sold-more-games-than-in-any-year-in-its-history/ Star Wars: Fate of the Old Republic Director Has Controversial View on Game Length Link: https://gamerant.com/star-wars-fate-of-the-old-republic-game-length/ 007 First Light Has Officially Gone Gold Link: https://gamerant.com/007-first-light-gone-gold/ “2nd Opinion Game Recommendations” (Recommend 2 or three games that people may not have played or should be playing)

    Mouse P.I. For Hire REVIEW | A Wacky, Toon Town FPS, That We Can't Put Down!

    The first-person shooter genre boasts a rich lineup of incredible titles, yet over the years, many players have begun to feel that these games have become increasingly repetitive and predictably similar. Recognizing this fatigue, Fumi Games and PlaySide Studios aimed to bring something fresh to the table with their latest indie-developed FPS, MOUSE P.I. FOR HIRE. This game stands out with its unique blend of 1930s rubber hose animation style and detective noir storytelling, offering a distinctive visual and narrative experience. But does it have the depth, gameplay innovation, and engaging mechanics necessary to compete with more established FPS titles in the genre? Or does it simply serve as a nostalgic, black-and-white homage that leaves players wanting more? Let's explore what makes MOUSE P.I. FOR HIRE a noteworthy addition to the indie FPS scene and whether it lives up to the hype.

    Welp. The Future of Gaming is all About AI | 2nd Opinion Podcast #392

    SHOW NOTES 3-15-2026 Crimson Desert Makes Controversial Change Just One Week Before Launch Just one week before its release, developer Pearl Abyss has quietly added Denuvo DRM, a controversial anti-tampering technology, to the PC version of Crimson Desert. For those who might be unaware, Denuvo DRM has long been a controversial choice for a variety of reasons. The third-party software is used by developers to make it more difficult for a game to be tampered with, thus protecting it from piracy. However, it’s often criticized by gamers, largely due to the performance issues that it can sometimes bring, such as lower FPS, increased CPU usage, and more. Link to Article: https://gamerant.com/crimson-desert-denuvo-drm-pc/ https://gamerant.com/crimson-desert-denuvo-pearl-abyss-response/ Invincible VS Confirms Open Beta Dates and Roster Thursday, April 9, at 10:00 AM PT to Saturday, April 11, at 9:00 PM PTInvincibleAtom EveBulletproofThulaRex SplodeBattle BeastOmni-ManRobotMonster GirlAllen the Alienhttps://gamerant.com/invincible-vs-open-beta-dates-roster/ That’s All I Can Say” Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Remake Gets New Update 5 Years Later During a recent conversation between IGN and Willits.
