There's much to be said about how The Outer Worlds 2 was handled prior to its release. Everything from a lacking preview and Avowed's underwhelming launch to Xbox attempting to force a $80 price point put this game on the uphill climb. All of that is out the window now. Cog and Matty have it in hand and have logged their many hours! Is the Black Rock ready to deliver on the RPG pedigree that they're known for or are they best off focusing on their new strength in games like Grounded or Pentiment?

Microsoft Gaming is pushing for 30% profit margin from studios. Make fun of ZA and now all your games will have JPEG textures too

Matty I bought the Xbox ally X and I love it! I think before people spend 1k on something they should truly research the product and get informed which is what I did. So l knew what I was getting myself into and I'm coming from an og steamdeck, I bought it day one and even that had some quirks in the beginning although not as many as the Xbox Ally. I'm a father of two kids and I haven't been able to game as much since but now with this ally even with its quirks the benefits really outweigh the cons. Just having a handheld device that can access gamepass and steam was worth it alone for me. It's the most comfortable handheld to play with and I'm definitely getting the value out it. I know marketing is dumb because its definitely not an xbox since it can't play my console xbox games but I've been making due with the play anywhere titles like Ninja gaiden 4. Thats a game I wouldn't be able to play during the day since it would hog the TV and the kids wouldn't be able to watch me play since it's very gory and thas alone makes it worth it.

Could always merge with summon sign, Brads a good addition. DUKE SUMMONERS!

Nice to see cutey Ben make a guest appearance. Hope he's on some more LSM content soon.

What’s up with the podcasts hitting the services so late the last few weeks. Still isn’t live on pocket casts

It’s the hope that kills you, also I don’t see them having an offset with how they’re pushing the high end talk.

MATTY- Glenn didn't make Dead Space 2 or 3

You are being way too pessimistic about PS6 prices as all the leaks point towards Sony being very aggressive about keeping costs low. The PS6’s only real competition next gen is Nintendo. Their specs and price will be competitive against the switch 2. The main PS6 system needs to be within $2-300 of the Switch 2 price. Xbox is not even close to competing against PlayStation next gen in terms of market share. Sony isn’t basing their next gen against a power competition. The PS5 Pro is expensive, but it’s the luxury version of the console meant to sell less than 1/5 of the PS5’s install base. It’s sold at a huge profit margin to the upper 10% of gamers who will pay whatever price (the $100 skin buyers). The PS5 pro was never a mass market replacement for the PS5. And shouldn’t be used as a judge for the next mass market PlayStation system.

Shout out to Ben. Cog is scared of the true throat goat, Kirby, confirmed. 😄 #TheOuterWorlDDs

Keep this show going. Its not about xbox its the banter, personality of both of you together. Thats what we are here for. You add a great flavor to LSM, as a listener from the beginning

Mark ?️

That'd put Brad on 3 main shows. Ben would be a better 3rd

I’m exclusively a PS player, but with more and more Xbox games coming over, I’ve been listening to this show weekly over the last couple of years to hear you guys’ thoughts and opinions. I’d hate for this show to go away.

Matty keeps harping on about Pokémon Legends Z-A being a Switch 2 game so they should have done more, did he somehow miss the giant "Switch 2 Edition" and text box about the cart having the game plus S2 upgrade on the cover? This is a Switch 1 game man
