#1 Superfan Kyle agrees with Shawn? Big Surprise
The Boafet @_ChannelThree :It may be a late topic but what about Halo finally coming to PC and being available on steam.
@mcboat: (1) There are rumors about Sony possibly acquiring Take Two. What’s the likelihood of that happening? And how would that fair for the franchises, with future GTAs and Red Deads being Sony exclusives? (2) Also from the rumor mill: Google’s coming out with a…game console?!?!
@mcboat: And this: James Gunn Is Hired Back to Helm ‘Guardians of the Galaxy 3’

Main Topic: HOW TO GET PEOPLE TOGETHER IN 2018
Why is it so difficult to get people to game with Jared?
Why is it so difficult to get people to try something new Jared likes?
Why buy multiplayer games if all your friends are “too busy” to play games with you anyway??? Geesh!!
No one can hang out for 8-10 hours playing board or tabletop games… other priorities like kids and family, band practice, being general flakes or whatever seem to take priority

Captain Marvel trailer!
Sir Patrick Stewart reprising his role as Captain Jean-Luc Picard in yet another new Star Trek series.
Cross-platform play across the board is finally a reality, with Sony being the reluctant holdout. What’s the impact of this going forward?
Lastly, and something I’ve brought up before: The future of server-based games. Will anyone be able to play Overwatch in 20 years?

A good argument for why cable is a worse option than several streaming services. With cable you are locked into that service. With either contract, equipment, or both. With streaming services, I can watch what I want then cancel at any time. No contract to mess with or box/satellite to return.I get HBO now for game of thrones, then unsub. I get SlingTV for basketball season, then unsub. There is not enough time for video games and all these shows, at the same time. So I don’t have to have every service all the time. It does require me remembering to cancel and all. But still better for me than cable. Also cable boxes all have bad UI.

@shawnobi: Great episode. I had to skip a bit of the God of War stuff (spoilers). But I loved the thoughtful discussion about fathers. Sort of a sign video games as a medium and the people making them are growing up.
We talk about Spider-Man Into the Spiderverse and we go deeper than you were expecting by looking at a common thread of God of War and Infinity War: Fatherhood.
