It's an end of an era, and the start of a new one with Tim and Fudfood. The Gaming Weekly Show is moving on to an independent podcast starting from next week! Please follow The Bad Gamer Good Gamer Podcast on social media @badgoodpod and look out for the first episode which will also be on YouTube! Oh, there's also some Sony news to go through.

Epic officially launches Unreal Engine 5 to the masses, and Saudi prince Mohammed bin Salman acquires 96% of gaming Studio SNK. Stick to the end of the episode to find out how one simple game got Tim his first (and only) failing grade in uni!

Really big news from Sony as they announced an overhaul to PlayStation Plus, which will be offered under three teirs and provide services such as a games library, cloud streaming, and more. Watch out Microsoft, Sony's out to get you.

The PSVR 2 was playable at GDC and people are already praising the immersive experience that Sony has delivered, and it's gotten us looking forward to its release. Maybe this will be the needed step to make VR more mainstream.

Hogwart's Legacy was revealed and we're wondering why it took so long for us to get an open-world action-adventure Harry Potter game! It looks really good even in the eyes of a non-Harry Potter fan.

Sony's State of Play was a success and it left us wanting more! What's even better is that Square Enix has launched a dedicated YouTube channel for all their music, just as Nintendo is shutting down people's channels.

To no one's surprise, the Steam Deck looks to be like a very capable (and possible your favorite) emulation machine! Valve is so excited to get it in people's hands that Gabe Newell himself was spotted hand-delivering some units.

This weeks brings us some interesting news in the form of Sony acquiring Bungie, indei developers standing up against NFTs, and Nintendo just being Nintendo 

After taking some personal time off, Tim and Fudfood catch up on what's been happening in their lives, what the plans are for the future of the show, and finally their thoughts on Microsoft buying Activision Blizzard.

Rockstar pulls a CD Projekt Red and launches the ridiculously unready GTA: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition Modders come to the rescue and launched the missing Pinnacle Station DLC from Mass Effect's Legendary Edition

No surprised, scalpers started selling off the beta codes to Elden Ring for hundreds of dollars. If you wanted to create your own metaverse, Niantic's tech is up for grabs. Unity buys the proprietary tech behind The Lord of the Rings. Among Us Cosmicube update: store, XP, cross progression, and new roles Nintendo wants to do better and invest more in games, services, and infrastructure. We're not even done with NFTs and blockchain.

State of Play 2021... Meh? Nintendo is pushing people towards illegal emulation. Halo Infinite Campaign looks good Xbox MMO in the works? Over 1,000 PC games on the Xbox thanks to.... Edge? Changes to the GTA: The Trilogy - The Definitive Edition Sony wants stream audiences to kick players out of the game

Who would have thought that a company like dbrand will actually make the PS5 right again twice! On to more serious drama, MercurySteam has been getting a lot of flack for not crediting some of their staff in Metroid Dread as well as alleged toxic work environment.

The Kinect might be coming back thanks to Sky's Glass TV which will integrated Sky Channels and have an optional 4K smart camera which is very much like the Kinect from the days of Xbox One! More is revealed from the Twitch hack and the numbers are daunting if you've ever aspired to make it big as a streamer. Netflix makes its first big gaming move and gives us a glimpse of what kind of games we could expect in the future. Valve is pushing right to pair for the Steam Deck, while Nintendo has...

Yikes, Twitch got hacked and people can see how much money their favorite streamers are making! Fudfood takes us through the major TGS 2021 announcements and we're so disappointed that the final fighter in Super Smash is not the man Sakurai himself... But not as disappointed as everyone who was looking forward to eFootball 2022.

Fudfood and I sit down and have a pleasant chat with Nabil and Maher from Zawaya Gaming and Ahmed from Abtal 360 about the Abu Dhabi Gaming Festival and our thoughts on the growth of the gaming and esports industry.
