It’s episode 700 and we’ve got a whole bunch of friends on hand to celebrate, so let’s party!
After an incredible special intro from norg, the show kicks off with Cole and I being joined by Chris Taylor, Aki, and Surlyna all on hand to chat about the show and what it has meant to them over the past 700 episodes. Also Jacob Garner shows up late because he sucks. From Chris being a part of Episode 10 to Surly making an appearance on the show, as well as Jacob existing and Aki plotting Cole’s demise, it’s a fun time with friends!
We also chat about the news of the week including the latest Xbox Games With Gold and PlayStation Plus lineups for August, PS5 topping 10 million sales while Xbox is doing pretty well itself, a Kena delay, Dead Space info, sales figures, Fatal Frame, and the impending shut down of Dr. Mario World. Plus news tidbits from Jacob that we mostly ignored and discussion of the Activision sleaze storm. Plus reviews!
