    Is the Era of Huge Games Ending? WB Games Narrows Its Focus # 423

    In an interview with Famitsu, Toshihiro Nagoshi, a former SEGA director who was pivotal at RGG studio, which works on the Like a Dragon games, says that the "era of game size" being pivotal to a game is coming to an end. Although it doesn't seem to be the case with the amount of large-size games still releasing in 2024, but could this be true in the near future? Could the size of a game's world finally not matter? Also, thanks to recent live-service failures such as Suicide Squad and now Multiversus it seems as though Warner Bros Games focus will come solely from four core franchises. Harry Potter, Mortal Kombat, DC, and Game of Thrones. Could this narrowing of its focus actually help improve things for the publisher? Or does it have the chance of going the opposite way and just watering down all of them instead? What does this mean for some other somewhat successful games from WB in the past? Plus, Nintendo finally confirms the Switch 2 will be backwards compatible with Switch 1, Sony President Hiroki Totoki states PS5 Pro's price has not effected its sales, Mass Effect TV show is in development, and more!

  2. Sony Officially Kills Concord And Closes Firewalk Studio # 422

    5 NOV.

    Sony Officially Kills Concord And Closes Firewalk Studio # 422

    Unfortunately, this week is the culmination of a previous problem for Sony, as the company officially decided to put the final nail in Concord's coffin and subsequently close down the studio that made the game, Firewalk Studios, along with mobile game developer Neon Koi. Sean and Marc discuss who should share the bulk of the blame if it means Sony needs to abandon the live service push entirely. Is there a franchise that lends itself to mobile in Sony's catalog? Also, Sean's been playing the Horizon Zero Dawn Remaster after never playing the series at all. Is this finally what hooks Sean into joining Aloy on her quest for the Nora? Sean also tried out the Pokemon TCG app. Is this gonna get Sean into collecting all the cards? Marc also finished Metaphor ReFantazio is it his Game of the Year so far? Plus, Call of Duty Black Ops 6 does big numbers in sales, and Xbox Game Pass, Xenoblade Chronicles X has finally been announced for Nintendo Switch, Path of Exile 2 is delayed until December, and would a major return of AA Games save the game industry?

  3. Call of Duty Black Ops 6, Like a Dragon Yakuza Amazon Show # 421

    29 OCT.

    Call of Duty Black Ops 6, Like a Dragon Yakuza Amazon Show # 421

    The biggest release of the year as far as industry sales is here in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and it also makes its debut on Xbox Game Pass as well. As a result, Sean has played a fair portion of the campaign and he has impressions of it so far. He's also been playing Shadows of the Damned: Hella Remastered which he can now speak about and guess what? It's just as good as the original just now looking better. Marc is also almost done with Metaphor ReFantazio as well. The duo also discuss their thoughts on the first three episodes of the Like A Dragon Yakuza Amazon series, does it do the first game justice so far? Are they fans of where it deviates? And what they do hope is still to come in the final three episodes of the first season? Plus, The Prince of Persia: Lost Crown is disbanded, and some of its members are working on a Rayman Remake headed up by series creator Michel Ancel. The U.S. Copyright office has denied that researchers should be given remote access to games through libraries, Netflix cancels its AAA game, should Killzone make a comeback? And much more!

    Does Gaming Have a Remake Problem? Neva Impressions # 420

    The bombardment of game releases continues, and it does not seem to be going to let up anytime soon. Although there are plenty of new games on the horizon, the glut of remakes and remasters seems to have become a larger piece of the gaming pie in recent years. Does gaming have a remake/remaster problem? Or is this a symptom of the greater issue with so much uncertainty in the industry? Where do Sean and Marc stand on the number of remakes/remasters coming down the pike? Is there a preference for how they do them? Sean's been playing the latest release from Nomada studio, Neva, the development team behind the indie hit Gris. Does it deserve the same praise as their previous title? Could it perhaps be even better? Marc's been hammering away at more Metaphor ReFantazio and Diablo IV as well. Plus, our reactions to the Xbox Partner Preview, has Bloober Team finally turned the corner after Silent Hill 2 Remake? God of War Amazon show essentially starts all over, a mystery Nintendo playtest, and more!

  6. A New Dawn Comes For Halo # 418

    A New Dawn Comes For Halo # 418

    Late night on Sunday during the Halo World Championships a surprise video debuted showcasing a project from 343 Industries that showcases what Halo could look like on Unreal Engine 5 as they officially make the move away from the Slipspace Engine used in Halo Infinite. They also announced multiple projects are in the works and that 343 is now called Halo Studios. Sean and Marc discuss all of this, does this give them hope for the future of Halo? And can Halo regain its flagship status as the premier franchise for Xbox? Also, Marc's been playing the Silent Hill 2 Remake that technically hasn't been fully released yet, but it certainly has a warm reception so far from other critics, but now Marc can give his thoughts on if it holds up compared to the original, do the changes make sense, and is it better? Plus, Metaphor ReFantazio's glorious critical reception, Why developers don't choose Xbox, Tecent and the Guillemot family looking into a buyout of Ubisoft, should Tekken get its own collection? Will the Horizon Online game be a big hit for Sony's live service ambitions? And More! * Apologies we didn't actually have time to talk about the Alien Isolation 2 sequel announcement * You can also watch this episode in video form on the W2M Network Youtube Channel, please give us a like, comment on the episode, and give the channel a subscribe and follow as well: https://youtube.com/live/wfdsxhRs15k Listen as a podcast and give us a review on these platforms...

  7. Assassin's Creed Shadows Delayed # 417

    1 OCT.

    Assassin's Creed Shadows Delayed # 417

    Tokyo Game Show has come and gone, and aside from Nintendo and another big publisher, pretty much everyone you would expect showed off at least something to be excited about. Whether it is the PlayStation State of Play, the Xbox streaming show, the Level-5 show, Capcom, Square-Enix, or more. Sean and Marc discuss some of their favorite games from many of these showcases with specific emphasis on the PlayStation and Xbox ones. The big publisher alluded to is Ubisoft who suddenly canceled their TGS live stream and then news came out that Assassin's Creed Shadows has been delayed out of 2024 entirely. Now released in February 2025, it seems as though shareholders are not happy with the company and are putting it into a review. Also, Star Wars Outlaws has not sold as well as expected, and other things that combined have led to this moment. But Ubisoft may be in trouble and does it all fall on how well Assassin's Creed Shadows is both received and sells? Sean and Marc also both completed the Metaphor ReFantazio demo and have major thoughts, the unfortunate news of Merge games shutting down, could Blizzard be once again working on another Starcraft Shooter, and more!

    Best PlayStation 1 Games # 416

    Sony finally unveiled the big promotions for the 30th Anniversary of PlayStation this past week and does it ever look enticing. Sean and Marc celebrate a bit themselves talking about the reveal, if they may pick up any of the accessories, and also give out their Top 10 Best PlayStation 1 Games at the end of the episode. Before that though, there are more current PlayStation matters to attend to, as Sony announced that a State of Play is happening on Tuesday afternoon. There are already rumors swirling about what could be announced. The guys discuss a few of the known ones and make their predictions about what could be shown at the 40-minute showcase. Also, Sonic Team is doing a Sonic Central and Level-5 also announced their stream for the same day. Xbox is also doing a stream on Thursday too. Welcome to Tokyo Game Show 2024 week, as it should be packed full of news. Plus, some big news about Concord's cost, and what it may mean for Fairgames and Marathon ahead, Sean has now platinumed Astro Bot and has some impressions on Plucky Squire, Stellar Blade being sued by Stellarblade, Nintendo sues Palworld, but not for what you think, Nintendo Switch 2 leaks, and more!
