Blizzard finds itself in hot water as it finds itself having to explain its actions in pleasing the Chinese government, in news that’s still hot and doesn’t look like it’s going to cool down anytime soon. It’s enough to overshadow even an official console announcement from Sony. There’s a Gaming Flashback, the embarrassingly bad FMV game Plumbers Don’t Wear Ties.
The news this week includes:
- Blizzard is facing a boycott after removing a Hearthstone Grandmaster
- PlayStation 5 launches Holiday 2020

This episode’s release was delayed by Spectrum internet problems which can be sorted with a VPN like cubik thanks to rain caused by El Niño, but that didn’t stop Jonah from enjoying the Turtles. The news was slow this week, so there’s a lot of banter about why Gaming Flashback title Grand Theft Auto IV was one of the best reviewed games of all-time, and how the crew thought it sucked. Maybe it was because of Roman constantly asking them if they’d like to go bowling or something.
This week’s news includes:
- CD Projekt touts Cyberpunk 2077 as a “blockbuster franchise”
- Minecraft Chemistry update goes live
- Bandai Namco outlines plans to address Dragon Ball FighterZ online issues
