649: Uwe've Got Mail

Luke slept 18 hours before this episode because he was up until 3 AM playing Forza Horizon 6. That's the kind of dedication that costs nearly $200 when you factor in the premium upgrade. Meanwhile Matt was over here still playing Conan Exiles Enhanced on GeForce Now and trying to figure out mod management on a streaming service (spoiler: it's a nightmare).

We also talked about:

Mixtape on Game Pass — Luke really wants you to play this one. Silverchair and Smashing Pumpkins on the soundtrack, little indie game about friends and memories. Just play it.
XBOX is all caps again. Yes. Matt polled the audience (well, Microsoft did on Twitter). Everybody said all caps. Done.
Some leaked photos of what's supposedly the new Xbox Cloud Gaming controller. Luke called bullshit immediately and we stand by that.
Uwe Boll is making 23 Years Later: The Castle of the Dead because Paul W.S. Anderson is making a House of the Dead movie and Uwe cannot let that stand. God bless him.
James Bond casting has started. Denis Villeneuve directing. Timothy Dalton deserved better. Luke nominated himself and Rahul.
Avatar 4 and 5 are now 'very much uncertain.' The third one lost money compared to the first one when you adjust for inflation. James Cameron needs to figure out how to make these for less.
The Rehearsal season 2 is good. The episode where Nathan Fielder is a baby is... a thing that exists.
Matt checked Pornhub live on the show and immediately regretted it. AI... stuff. Moving on.

Plus Would I Lie to You, Fallout 5 (coming in the 2030s, don't hold your breath), Obsidian getting roasted by Bethesda after New Vegas, scam phone calls being just normal now — it's all in there.
