Welcome back to the show! This week I can't NOT talk about Xbox again — sorry!!

So is Xbox Over or What?
Welcome back to the show! With some time away, I've been doing a lot of thinking about where Sony and Microsoft are at these days... as usual. I think in particular, Xbox as a brand feels like it's on a slow descent into a confused existence and I wanted to unpack that as best as I could.---Join the Patreon: https://patreon.com/wavelengths---Feel free to follow me elsewhere!Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/bb.wavelengths.onlineMastodon: https://mastodon.social/@brendonbigleyBlog: https://wavelengths.online---Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4Hmt3yHTovQmEcqzhZdl8TApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/wavelengths-with-brendon-bigley/id1677660078Pocket Casts: https://pca.st/x6p7ni3rAnd more: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/itswavelengths---Chapters:0:00 - Welcome back to Wavelengths0:45 - Hades II is good13:38 - Where’s PlayStation At Right Now26:20 - Is Xbox over at this point?39:47 - Listener questions!---⏆

Chase Allhart on Silksong Discourse, 007, and Kingdom Hearts IV
This week I'm talking to Chase Allhart, host of two great video game podcasts in the form of Video Game Podtimism and dotzip! Obviously Silksong is in the air, and the amount of discourse surrounding this one game is off the charts, so we dig into that in a big way before talking about making video game podcasts and, ultimately, Kingdom Hearts IV.—Support Wavelengths: patreon.com/wavelengths—The News and More:007 First Light State of Play: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwRpK8eoLLENomura on Kingdom Hearts IV: https://www.ign.com/articles/tetsuya-nomura-offers-promising-update-on-final-fantasy-7-remake-part-3-and-kingdom-hearts-4—Chapters:0:00 - Welcome to Wavelengths!1:57 - The Dreaded Silksong Discourse56:17 - 007 First Light1:07:48 - MGS 3 Delta1:27:09 - Video Game Podtimism1:31:54 - Kingdom Hearts IV—⏆
