Episode notes

The episode opens with an initial recommendation of DREDGE, a fishing and exploration game with boat upgrades and an atmosphere of mystical horror. The central segment debates the rise of handhelds: Steam Deck, Steam Deck 2, Asus ROG Ally, and the rumour of a PlayStation device focused on remote play. They compare power, price, battery life, openness as a PC, and dependence on a good connection.

In the news section, they discuss the statements about Call of Duty before the CMA and FIFA being succeeded by EA Sports FC, as well as the reception of the Super Mario Bros. film, Game Pass, Star Wars Jedi: Survivor, and Counter-Strike 2. They also cover a PlayStation controller patent with temperature control and the announcement of a Gears film.

The other major topic is the cancellation of E3. They reflect on the shift towards companies' own digital events, what is lost without demos and an in-person audience, and the possible future of trade shows. The ending returns to DREDGE to explain its progression, night fishing, sea dangers, and positive assessment. Finally, they recommend Tainted Grail: Fall of Avalon in Early Access.
