Volition is no longer an independent developer, as they are now part of Gearbox, sparking discussions about the implications of such a move in the gaming industry. This week, we also dive into the controversy surrounding Spider-Man: Miles Morales, which some claim surpasses the original, but I firmly disagree, arguing that it falls short. Blizzard’s recent nerf to Sombra has raised eyebrows and ignited a heated debate about balance in Overwatch 2, and I’m here to share my hot take on why it was a major misstep. Plus, Epic Games is giving away Star Wars Squadrons, a title that revives the classic space combat experience, and I highly recommend grabbing it. Join me as we navigate through these hot topics and more in the world of gaming!
