The video game announcements have come at us fast and furious (sorry about the pop culture pun) recently, even without an E3 with Playstation, Meta, Apple, and more showing off their future. This past weekend brought us even more with the Indie Showcase, Devolver Digital Presentation, PC Gaming offerings, Geoff Keighley's Summer Game Fest, and more but much of the expectations weighed in on the future of the XBOX with their XBOX and Starfield Showcase. Tune in as TJ Johnson and Gerald Glassford recap the XBOX Showcase and point out what went right, what was underwhelming, and how it stacked up to PlayStation's offering and the Summer Game Fest, and if it will (finally in a long time) set the XBOX on a right path with consumers. The guys also talk about if there's a future for Transformers after the Rise of the Beasts' first weekend at the box office. After a rough going for the latest generation, can we now say things are good with XBOX? Find out our thoughts on our latest Pop Culture Cosmos!

Melinda and Gerald are back from vacation as they have thoughts on Diablo IV, Transformers Rise of the Beasts, Street Fighter 6's early success, Apple Pro Vision VR's high price tag, Max's The Idol, Summer Game Fest 2023, and will Netflix's call to action (movies) with Arnold Schwarzenegger pay off?
