Company acquisitions aren’t new to any business, let alone the gaming industry. The recent news, which we will get into later, of Microsoft’s purchase of Zenimax media was gigantic. Not only, did they garner alot of attention, they also managed to gain additional value for their netflix style gaming service, Game Pass, AND bolstered their first party teams. It’s this part that we found probably the most intriguing game room of the acquisition and got us thinking about a ton of things, including what other studios could be bought by the big three. Another thing that Josh talked about with the guys was something along the lines of what our dream first party line up of studios would be. That eventually spun into our topic of today’s show. As some of you know, Josh is a big NFL guy and a massive packers fan. So He proposed the idea of doing something similar to an NFL draft where we take turns picking studios until we have a solid portfolio of 7 studios a piece. So with that said, let the war begin!
Alongside all of this, the boys talk about the roll out of the PS5 and it's preorders. Josh is just a little bit incensed. They also talk about the gigantic news of Microsoft buying Bethesda. There's a little bit of contention in this discussion. The boys also go over, their thoughts on the 3DS and it's official cancellation as well as whether the Vita is a better console and boy does it get heated. Is American Horror Story Asylum still good? Dylan gives us his thoughts, while Austin talks about preparing for his heart to be crushed by the FINAL Digimon Adventure movie. There's some talk of a month long horror movie fest that Josh plans to embark upon and the boys change things up for their pick of the week and all give some musical recommendations! All that and so much more!!!
