Gamescom, State of Play & Old Games Making a Comeback

We are back discussing the epic Gamescom and State of Play announcments including The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Remastered, the Songs of the Past new Witcher 3 expansion, and the new free Mario Kart 8 update that brings 8 player splitscreen for Switch 2 users along with other free enhancements. We discuss this trend of older games getting renewed support, expansions, and remasters and ask if more publishers should pursue this. Then we discuss Sony's new State of Play, what games we are excited about and then dive into a bit more discussion on the importance of consumer protections as they move into the all digital era. We talk Xbox's new disc to digital program, September game releases, and more. Thanks for listening.
