    Episode 316 | "Xbox Logo-gate and we played Modern Warfare 4"

    Call of Duty Modern Warfare 4 is here, and we've played it. The SteamDeck's price is skyrocketing, and everyone is afraid of Asha Sharma's latest internal memos. Join Nick, Jesse, and Aarsal in The DayOne Show Episode 316! It's been a busy week in games as well as news, so there's plenty to talk about on this episode. With Jon out at UK Games Expo for Console Wars the Card Game, Nick, Jesse and Aarsal get together to chat about the latest goings on.First up it's Aarsal's time in the spotlight with his thoughts on Call of Duty Modern Warfare 4 after this time with Infinity Ward while out on assignment. You can read his thoughts on the campaign and the multiplayer. We've all been playing 007 First Light, and are having a thoroughly great time with what feels like a real Game of the Year contender! Jesse's also got a double bill of video game reviews this week, after tackling the excellent Mina the Hollower and the improved-on-the-original Echo Generation 2. Beyond that, Nick has been playing Yoshi and the Mysterious Book and shares his thoughts on the latest Nintendo Switch 2 release. When it comes to news topics, we're not short on things to discuss this week on DayOne. Fable has been delayed to February 2027, and Xbox fans are up in arms when it comes to Xbox displaying their competitors logos on trailers at the Xbox Showcase next week. Valve's SteamDeck handheld got a shocking price increase, and has many gamers questioning if the Steam Machine will even release considering the issues facing supply for memory and storage for these sorts of devices. All this and more in the DayOne Show Episode 316.

    Episode 315 | "Bungie's Destiny"

    From live Forza Shows to incredible video games, it's been another busy week, and the start of a marathon! Let's talk about all the weeks happenings in The DayOne Show Episode 315! We've been enjoying Forza Horizon 6 along with everyone else this week in what has been a quieter week in terms of video games releases overall. LEGO Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight is out, and while a late review may be on the cards, we're all just enjoying the game - it's excellent. We do have a review of recent Game Pass addition Luna Abyss up on the site for folks that are interested - just head here. Where the week hasn't been so quiet is in video game news! We divert off on to a tangent about stealth games and how the mechanics aren't really about realistic stealth before diving into the latest headlines.Sony have announced a new State of Play, and they're inviting journalists and pundits to come and sit in a room to watch it, so it certainly sounds like it might be a big one. And thank goodness this positive news arrived when it did, because Bungie have announced the end of Destiny 2 support, with Bloomberg reporting that lay-offs at the legendary studio are imminent. Poor Bungie. Oh, and because there's never enough money to go around, the price of PlayStation Plus subscriptions is going up. Oof.Elsewhere, Xbox leadership changes continue with a couple of new hires, and a brand new Xbox Game Studios shop is now online. Following the capitlisation of XBOX, fans are now wondering what the next generation of Xbox hardware is going to be called. Will Asha ask the community to name it (We hope not)?Lastly, we did see a surprising leak of some new Virtua Fighter footage which looks utterly fantastic, and SEGA even teased something for Crazy Taxi. With showcase season fast approaching, we can't wait to see all the new games over the next few weeks. All this, plus your community questions, so jump in!
