This week brings a great discussion with Joseph Moran, host of Trophy Room, a PlayStation Podcast, on Sony's 3.6 billion dollar acquisition of Bungie. We dive into what this does for PlayStation, as well as what Bungie gets by being acquired. Additionally, we learned that PlayStation is planning at least 10 live service games by 2026. How will this impact PlayStation's brand of excellent single-player narratives? Stick around till the end to hear Joe's review impressions of Dying Light 2 and what we all thought of Gran Turismo 7's State of Play presentation. We also answer all your questions you submitted on Twitter.
