    Episode 71: Are Platform-Exclusive Video Games On Their Way To Being A Thing of the Past?!

    In this episode of The Fun Waste Time, the fellas discuss whether platform-exclusive video games are soon going away.  With PlayStation seemingly more open to releasing first-party exclusive games on PC and Xbox on the verge of becoming a third-party publisher now that they own Bethesda and Activision-Blizzard, are we nearing a future where platform-exclusive video games may become a thing of the past?

Light-hearted Fun

Whenever I need a break from True Crime and the world at large, I park my nerdy ears here. Great production values. Fun, informal, conversational style with good vibes.
