2025 has been an exceptional year for releases, almost from the first day of January. Now that we're halfway through the year, we use this podcast to remind you all of some of the big hits of the year - don't forget to check them out if you haven't yet!
We also have a chat about games that feel good to play - this is not the same as great games, but rather, those that have a kind of "X-factor" where the controller just feels good in the hand (can you tell we're playing quite a bit of Death Stranding 2 right now?).
And of course, we talk about everything coming in July. If you're a fan of retro, this is going to be a particularly good month for you!
Have a great month playing lots of great games, everyone.
