They’ve finally done it. Those crazy bastards at Microsoft finally unveiled the Xbox Series S.
Not only that, but we have prices, pre-orders and launch dates for the Xbox Series X as well. And Sony has a PS5 show coming up on the day this podcast comes out. What a time to be alive!
Elsewhere, we discuss the fate of Wario Ware, exceeding nostalgia, dance floor fillers, and so much more.
Games discussed: Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2 Remake, Tell Me Why, Hotshot Racing.

David, Sean, James and Mat are back to discuss chapter two of Dontnod's latest game, 'Tell Me Why'.
In this episode we cover everything in the second chapter of Tell Me Why, including: the characters, the plot points, our choices, and our theories on where the story might end up in the final chapter.
It goes without saying, but if you haven’t played the first two chapters of Tell Me Why, or if you don’t want to know anything about the game, turn this spoilercast off IMMEDIATELY, go and play them, then come back once you’ve finished it.
