On this episode of Video Games 2 the MAX, Sean Garmer and Marc Morrison begin by discussing the terrible news concerning Telltale Games laying off over 275 people without severance pay or any warning. The class-action lawsuit filed by an employee in its wake, the reasons behind the studio closing, and how it may be time for game development to bring unions into the mix. They also discuss the Capcom Vancouver studio closing and Total War Rome II stupid controversy in this as well.
After that, they talk Microsoft announcing their fan fest in Mexico, bringing mouse and keyboard support to the Xbox family, and what they've been playing with Marc talking Marvel's Spiderman. While Sean talks about the DLC expansion to one of his favorite games from 2017 in Xenoblade Chronicles 2: Torna: The Golden Country.
Continuing on, they talk the announcements from the Nintendo Direct. What they are most excited about, some not so favorites, and Final Fantasy coming to Switch, and if it means they are buying some of these games again on another console. Plus, what happened to Final Fantasy VIII?
There's also a discussion on the newly announced PlayStation Classic, Japan ending PlayStation Vita production in 2019, Project Judge coming from the Yakuza series creator, Alan Wake getting a TV show, Henry Cavill cast as Geralt, and more.
As always, they talk the games coming out this week too like Valkyria Chronicles 4, Life is Strange 2, and more.
