State of Play Reactions | Are Microsoft Bottling The Acti Deal? | Elden Ring sells 20m - a podcast by fingergunspodcast

This week on The Finger Guns Podcast Rossko, Sean, Kat, Miles and Yogdog get together to talk all things video games, and Nando's. And German speaking war movies. It's quite the pod.

First up we recap this weeks PlayStation State of Play as we share our highlights of the show. We talk if we've finally been sold on Suicide Squad :Kill The Justice League after the deep dive and the excitement of Resident Evil 4 and Street Fighter 6.

Elsewhere as the Microsoft acquisition of Activision Blizzard rumbles on we get caught up on the latest developments, of which Microsoft are stumbling out of the gate after their poor showing at the EU hearing, defending the acquisition with Sony present seemingly pushing back on every promise. Will this deal ever go through? Do Microsoft have a leg left to stand on? Time will tell.

Finally, has Souls gone mainstream? With the enormous success of Elden Ring reported this week, has the genre shifted into the hands of filthy casuals? How did the marketing pull this one off? We discuss.

Not forgetting Game of the Week, Sean has been checking out the delightful Clive N' Wrench, Miles has been ruling with an iron fist in The King's Dilemma: Chronicle, Kat has been playing the almighty Chef Life and Yogdog has continued his journey in Spellforce along with some Blood Bowl III. Rossko has just been playing Fortnite, so same old there. He's a predictable old man.

Enjoy the ep!
