Welcome back to the Bros and Consoles podcast, everybody! Last week I went and said that summer months after E3 tend to be pretty light, and then a big news week hit the very next episode! We've got a lot to talk about, ranging from new studio acquisitions, surprise game releases, major layoffs, and even a couple video game movie adaptations. Hope you're all ready for a ride this week, and hope you enjoy the show!
