We both checked out Zack Snyder's Justice League on HBO Max and we talk about all the differences in the theatrical cut. Hoss never having seen the theatrical version relies entirely on Brandon's account for how baffling the theatrical release really is when comparing it to the HBO version. Enjoy our interim episode of the VD Podcast!

E3 has come and went for 2021 and it was... Pretty underwhelming for a lot of people it seems.

Let's talk about all the GREAT THINGS that were announced. Let's go!
We discuss:
Elden Ring
STALKER 2
Metroid Dread

Resident Evil 8 is out and there might be a few parallels with the highly maligned Resident Evil 6 from 2012. A swan song of the old Action Adventure and corny action movie departure the Survival Horror franchise dips into Resident Evil 6 dove head first into a bunch of different types of game play and came out a bad Frankenstein's monster that satisfied no long term fans of the past games. Does Resident Evil 8 The Village do a better job with this balancing act? Let's have a look.

STADIA lasted from launch to end of service a total of 15 months. The hype for Google's cloud based gaming service was pretty big for a year or two prior.
