Video Game Announcement Month has commenced, and today we take a look at the incredibly long and incredibly dense Xbox conference! Mostly, because some of it did spill over into the Ubisoft event, and carried forward from the Summer Games Fest show. So really it's only a mostly Xbox/Microsoft episode. But boy, what a conference - and that doesn't even count the near hour long deep dive into the upcoming Everything and Forever game Starfield! Buckle up your space pants for blast off!

Our unplanned break ended up being a great boon, because it gave us, like, two whole weeks to play the new Zelda! We have a lot to say, but for your benefit, we kept it to only 80 minutes, almost entirely focused on things as they are in the world before you do a dungeon. There are some minor spoilers for that stuff, and for a couple of the things outside this scope (but they are pretty contextless I think, so it's fine!!!) but otherwise is just some friends chatting up a storm about a really fantastic adventure.

Games Discussed: The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. That's it, that's the one.

Nintendo did us a favour by dropping an incredibly dense indie direct on us, so now we have *a lot* to talk about! Cat Games, Farming Games, Weird Puzzle Games, Cool Puzzle Games, Cozy Puzzle Games with Cats, and the Store Brand Jet Set Radio that daddy Sega won't give you. Then it's on to the news, where Halo keeps dying, Daddy Sega buys Angry Birds, NDAs become suggestions, Dreams are dead, and a studio (allegedly) goes full pirate.

Dean played nothing but Deceive Inc., a cross between Hitman and Assassins Creed multiplayer, Andrew tried to chase the hell demon high in Path of Exile, and Daniel convinces Andrew to buy a game mid-podcast because he cannot stop gushing about a deck building roguelite called Wildfrost.

Welcome to what is a surprisingly Movie And/Or TV Show focused episode of the Funcast. Weird how that worked out, but someone we managed to unearth some truly terrifying horrors from the deep dark. Daniel also played Dredge for a bit, and It's really quite good.

No Mario movie, but how about some Dungeons and Dragons instead? Or perhaps the two weeks of Stuff Getting Cancelled? Been rough out there for "open betas" and "game sequels" and "huge gaming conferences". Tears of the Kingdom had a whole gameplay video, Torchlight 2 (?) got played (??), and yet more almost literally DnD was played in Solasta!

A really full episode!
