Yes, we have all watched the Super Mario Bros. trailer, the world will never be the same. Chris Pratt was clearly almost trying his very best in the VO booth so we should all try (not that) hard to be excited for his game changing performance. Obviously we all talk about the BIGGEST news of the week: Persona 3 Portable and Persona 4 Golden will launch early next year, will the trophy lists be the same? Then we really get deep into the gritty grime and gunk gabbing about the gruesome garbage launch of Overwatch 2 that straight up didn't work for a long time and requires a text security feature that some can't use.  On a positive note, we discuss the announcement of Need for Speed Unbound and the very cool art style they went with. Will this be a racing game that actually gets the Button Boys interested? Then the STARS* really come out to shine as we talk about the new PlayStation Stars Rewards program. Can Alex and Dan identify games based on song titles circa 1994? Probably not. Finally we get to all of your favorite weekly segments. The HOT ASS Heat Check, Alex's moody and atmospheric GG, and the games we've been playing. What the hell is Dan up yo? Only one way to find out. Oh, and if you're looking for stamps, GO TO THE POST OFFICE!
