STORY MODE PODCAST IS NOW ONE YEAR OLD! It's crazy to think of all the laughs, all the news, and all the games we've experienced over the past year. Our heartfelt thanks go out to everyone who has listened and supported our show (*insert 400 heart emojis*).

But the news stops for no one, and this week, we're discussing the Chicago lawmaker who wants to ban violent video games like Grand Theft Auto to combat carjackings. We'll also be talking about the newly announced Diablo II: Resurrected, rumors of not one, but TWO possible Silent Hill reboots, rapper Soulja Boy's second try at entering the gaming console market, new reports that Final Fantasy XVI won't sacrifice its story for action, and how Epic Games will settle Fortnite loot box lawsuits in V-Bucks (yes, really).

Finally, we'll wrap up the show with a look back at Pokémon Red/Green on the games' 25th anniversary.
