Jeff’s back with crazy custom controller painting stories—burnt wood, acrylic rescues, and all—and the crew weighs in on the looming question: do we even need a PlayStation 6 with tech like the Steam Deck and mini-PCs on the rise?

Xander dives into The Siege and the Sandfox, a stealthy Metroidvania with smooth narration, while Rytmos delivers the chillest puzzle vibes of the week. Plus, we spotlight standout new indies like Pipistrello and the Cursed Yoyo and Starlight Legacy, and dig into some killer budget picks under $2. All that, and yes—we talk Fantasian, because when Sakaguchi drops an RPG, we listen.
