Episode Synopsis

Send us a textWhile mourning all the game reporting jobs being lost,  David Radd notices Tequila Gundam in The Great Battle V, rushes to the boss as quickly as possible in Super Bomberman 5 and feels like he's see this before in PREY.  Meanwhile Tuesday is doing their Tommy Wiseau impersonation with Fire Emblem Engage and is impressed with all the changes in the Dead Space remake.  In news, Microsoft lays off 10,000 employees including at Xbox and Bethesda, a GDC survey shows increased interest in unionization while Ubisoft Paris sees a strike of over 40 people.  Meanwhile, Sony reports a record quarter for the PS5 in sales and 11 million in sales for God of War Ragnarok and Blizzard terminates a manager for refusing to use ranking quotas and breaks up the union at Proletariat before it officially forms.  For the SNGP topic, David and Tuesday discuss what does (and doesn't) constitute a AAA video game.If you enjoy the podcast, visit us at Patreon.com/SNGP!
