🎙️ Episode 120 – DMG Gaming Podcast (August 5, 2025) features fiery takes and fan-fueled debate as Grant and Ed unload on the absurd backlash against Sydney Sweeney’s American Eagle ad. Critics calling it “eugenics propaganda” get roasted, especially Mark Lamont Hill’s claims that her blonde, blue-eyed image promotes white supremacy. The hosts defend Sweeney’s charm and smart branding, branding the outrage as performative and hypocritical.

🎮 In gaming news, Nintendo’s latest Direct stirs the pot with announcements like Monster Hunter Stories 3 and the charming new RPG Adventures of Elliot. Meanwhile, the First Descendant x Nier Automata crossover turns heads with enhanced 2B skins and jiggle physics. Other big stories: BioShock 4 delays and developer shakeups, Battlefield 6 avoids silly skins, Marvel Rivals introduces creepy voice chat monitoring, and GT6 slides to 2026.

🧠 Disgruntled Gamer Rant targets the Sydney Sweeney outrage machine. Hosts call out critics like Kaylee Horrigan for framing a denim ad as “Nazi-coded,” pointing out the double standard of using beauty for clicks while condemning it elsewhere.

🎬 The Top 6 Worst Marvel Movies include:

1. Daredevil (Ben Affleck)
2. New Mutants
3. Thor: Love and Thunder
4. Morbius
5. Dark Phoenix
6. Fantastic Four (2015)
   The crew roast weak CGI, bizarre scripts, and tragic miscasting.

🎲 In Random Game Roulette, Typing of the Dead (Dreamcast/Arcade) stuns as a weird but brilliant zombie-typing hybrid. Players must type phrases like “diarrhea” to kill enemies—awkward and awesome.

🔥 Another bold, irreverent episode from the kings of gaming controversy.
