On this episode of the Plug N Play Podcast, Henry delves into the ongoing and never ending tragedy that is Playstation's live service game initiative! Jade Raymon leaves Fairgames after negative play tests and Bungie's Marathon has blood in the water after admissions of plagiarism are abound. Also Borderlands 4's Randy Pitchford's comments on fans needing to find a way to buy $80 game, Playstation Star's rewards program coming to an end and a special report from Momocon about Swery and Suda51's new joint venture: Hotel Barcelona!
Impressions this week are focusing on finishing up Clair Obscure: Expedition 33, and answering the question: is it really the best game of all time? Oh, and I tried Doom: Dark Ages too.
