bad guy xbox

Episode 768 (1 hr 04 mins 44 secs) We’ve got to have a conversation about the fact xbox shut down four Bethesda game studios. RIP to Tango Gameworks, Arkane Austin, Alpha Dog, and Roundhouse. Why did that happen? Who is to blame? How surprising was it really? Where does things go from here? Should xbox just give up? Albert has a chat (and rant) about this with special guest Tyler McPhail of Most Extreme Ranking Challenge. The game industry right now feels like it’s just imploding.
