Sony celebrated 25 years of Playstation this week, and we also take a look back on the legacy of the Playstation, all the way back to the Playstation 1 where many early memories these podcast hosts share were formed. After a walk down memory lane though, we also get into the week in gaming news, including new DLC arriving for Kingdom Hearts after nearly a year of the game being released.  

We start off with some viewer comments about Google Stadia, Half-Life: Alyx and VR, and game streaming in general. The Steam Controller is dead. Long live the Steam Controller. Facebook has purchased Beat Games, the studio that brought you Beat Saber, and while it doesn't mean that Beat Saber will be Oculus exclusive, it might mean that modding will be clamped down and that their next game will be an Oculus exclusive. The Game Awards are coming up, and while it's trendy to hate on them and Geoff Keighley, I won't be doing that. Then we take calls about the Game Awards and whether Death Stranding should be a part of the awards considering that Geoff was in the game and Hideo Kojima is on the board of The Game Awards.

Ashes to Ashes was the sequel to Life on Mars. Police detective Alex Drake finds herself in a hostage situation that goes very wrong. She wakes up to find herself in 1981! We see how she deals with that through 1981, 1982 and 1983. The series was first broadcast in 2008 through 2010. Please send us your comments, questions, requests and complaints.

The Podcast Pirates look at the latest entries in the Pokemon franchise, its successes, and the difficulty of discussing criticism of the games.

It's been awhile since the PC release of this game has been out, but now the game is available on the Nintendo Switch. Here are my thoughts on the port.

Star Wars seeks to break out of its own chains and contemplates how to learn from failure in the middle chapter of the third trilogy. Warning: There will be SPOILERS!

This is a follow-up to Star Wars Battlefront II's Loot Box Problem, posted on VOG earlier this week. Late Thursday, EA's Star Wars account tweeted that they had “turned off in-game purchases for #StarWarsBattlefrontII.” defusing part of an extremely contentious issue that erupted into a PR nightmare for both the game and the company on the eve of the game's highly publicized release.
