Two upcoming games are causing a big stir this week for different reasons.
Gotham Knights running at 30 FPS instead of 60 FPS sends gamers into a tizzy because it isn't the peak performance one would expect from a Current gen game. Sean, Marc, and Daniel discuss and debate their stance on the subject and if 30 FPS games could still be happening even further into this console generation.
Bayonetta 3 also featured in its own controversy with the past voice of the lead character, Hellena Taylor, saying she didn't return to reprise her role because she wasn't offered a fair wage for her services. This led to a lot of other things including current Bayonetta voice actress Jennifer Hale having to release a statement as well.
The CMA has pursued a Phase 2 investigation in the Activision-Blizzard-King acquisition, forcing Microsoft to lay it all out there to prevent a big blow to their hopes of landing the Call of Duty maker. Could Sony have also delayed a PlayStation Showcase to strengthen its position further as well?
Plus, Sean has thoughts on Scorn, and Silent Hill is finally back! Or well we are supposed to get some info pretty soon at least. The sad ending of G4, and a mini She-Hulk Season 1 Review.
