In today’s Dead Drop, Sony hikes PS5 prices again (cheers, inflation), Kojima lets you skip boss fights (merciful legend), and Hollywood keeps poaching our IPs—with Story Kitchen cooking up some serious adaptations.

We dive into tariff trouble hitting the Switch 2, Death Stranding 2 updates, new releases, and layoffs shaking up gaming media. It's your no-nonsense cache of the biggest gaming news, with just enough sarcasm to keep it spicy.
