Triangle Squared: A Playstation Podcast

Show Notes

The State of Play is finally here, and we've got a lot to talk about.

This week, Brett and Chris break down Sony's latest showcase, including Marvel's Wolverine, Ace Combat, new co-op experiences, surprise reveals, and whether PlayStation delivered one of its strongest presentations in recent memory.

Before diving into the showcase, the guys discuss their time with 007: First Light, Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, Pragmata, Voice of Cards, and the launch of Marathon Season 2. Along the way, they debate whether developers should move beyond the franchises that made them famous, whether Marathon's new PvE additions help or hurt the extraction shooter formula, and why GTA 6 continues to influence the entire gaming industry.

New episodes every other Wednesday!
