Surviving Another Spooky Saturn Season

The Saroo State of the AAA Games Industry

Join Cameron, Nuno, and Brian for another meandering chat about video games. First, Nuno regales a detailed account of his experiences with the Saroo flash cart for the Sega Saturn. At around the ~35 minute mark, Camron also shares his thoughts on various games he's been playing and what makes games/consoles a good "value" or not. Eventually, the conversation devolves into a rant session about the PS5 Pro, AAA stagnancy, and various challenges plaguing the games industry, and even some glimmers of hope, perhaps?
