Sony’s new router just got revealed so Evan and David convene to discuss the PlayStation 5 event and all the games in this totally-not-E3 show, including Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Demon’s Souls, Resident Evil VIII: Village, Deathloop, Kena: Bridge of Spirits, and more. Plus: send us receipts for donations to social justice charities and activist groups (including Black Lives Matter, LGBTQ+ orgs, and more) alongside a review recommendation and we’ll give you a shoutout and pick something from the entries to review on a future show! Topics include: cockroaches in your PS4, shootmans, and time loops vs. dragons.
Thank you to Patrick Sutton of The Cockpit Podcast for editing this episode.
