Seems it's never a dull week in video games these days, as Xbox initiates a big reorganization (Activision's Halo? Obsidian at Bethesda?) with yet more layoffs, Bungie resurrects Destiny 2 after only three months, Control Resonant is finally here, and of course, the news nobody else will bring you: there's a new release of Sin. Join us as we talk about all of it! CHAPTERS
