Content

Sorry for the somewhat late arrival on this one - um, we've got a lot going on. With that in mind, it's also worth pointing out that this Direct is going public on Tuesday, not Monday.

Even though most of the team are concentrating on PS5 Pro content, we still managed to find the time for another episode of DF Direct Weekly. Tom joins Rich and John to discuss the death of Concord and the shuttering of Firewalk Studios, Indiana Jones and Mario & Luigi: Brothership, while Alex joins the fray later to talk Star Citizen, Squadron 42 and Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered on PC. Meanwhile, in his spare time, John's been testing out a couple of alleged 'disaster remasters'...

If you're expecting a paragraph here about the actual link for the DF Supporter Exclusive podcast feed, I'm not going to disappoint you. Please ignore any Patreon links elsewhere and head over here for instant delight: https://open.acast.com/public/patreon/fanSubscribe/593963

Alex looks sad in the thumbnail. You ok hun?

Dominic Dilullo

bit of feedback if i may! i really enjoyed the sudden switch in panelist. nothing against Tom, i love his smooth english voice and he's very knowledgeable!. Just mean in general. It makes the podcast more interesting with a sudden change, perhaps something you could implement more often. if not, i get it! must add some logistical challenges with schedules and whatnot! Anyway! love the boyz at DF

Can you share the YouTube URL? The embed isn’t working for me.

I remember the days when we would "meet the new DF team" every week with a humorous thumbnail composed of various celebrities, etc. I think Rich used to do that in the weekly content meeting email. Good times!

I agree. I like all the DF team so inevitably feel a bit sad to see who hasn’t made the cut each week 🥹

As for the "own goal" portion of the show. The American football equivalent is called a safety, for the funniest example I know of look up Dan orlovsky runs out the back of the end zone.

Rich, I know all hands are on deck for the PS5 Pro, but any chance Tom or John could _eventually_ cover the Darksiders II re-remaster? It could be in two months even, not suggesting to kill the team 😅

They peaked with Sex in the City and couldn’t possibly get to them highs again

Hi DF team. When you talked about Horizon Remaster, I remembered that if you use the DLSS tweaker tool, you have the option to see the internal resolution of the game, and if you use DSR, you can see the resolution jumps it makes to maintain the FPS. Excuse my English, I used a translator and tried to be as clear as possible.
