SG 206 | Split Fiction + Nueva portátil de ASUS/Xbox + ¿AMD vs NVIDIA? + Actualidad
Episode notes
The episode opens with a rundown of recently played and pending games, including Kingdom Come: Deliverance, Monster Hunter Wilds, Ready or Not and Insurgency. The main debate then focuses on AMD and NVIDIA: prices, performance, drivers, frame generation and which setup may be worthwhile when building a PC, as well as the practical differences between PC and console. They also discuss IndieDevDay’s evolution into Barcelona Game Fest, the announcement of Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 3 and the potential of Copilot as an Xbox assistant.
The news segment includes rumours of an ASUS handheld associated with Xbox, Microsoft’s hardware strategy, FSR4, DLSS and PSSR, the Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 patch, PlayStation Portal, Death Stranding 2: On the Beach and a possible remake of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. The show also addresses ethical concerns around AI, dubbing and synthetic voices.
The final section is devoted to Split Fiction: its cooperative premise starring Mio and Zoe, its variety of mechanics, crossplay, the system that allows playing with a single copy, length, price, shared design and replayability. The overall assessment is very positive, although they note that it is less surprising after It Takes Two.
