This week we use a chain to fight the power, try to figure out what’s going on with Chris Redfield’s face, check out a ton of new PS5 games, discuss the role of police in games and visit the ugliest castle in video game history.

Is that an X-Wing I see….(It’s not.)
I wasn’t that interested in this game and now suddenly I want it very badly.
