Marvel’s Wolverine Review: Honest & Unbiased & More Ep. 162
This week on The Level Down Podcast, we're talking about some of the biggest stories happening across gaming and entertainment — and we're clearing up one important piece of information from our previous discussion.First, we're taking an honest and unbiased look at Marvel's Wolverine. We're also correcting the record on the game's reported sales. There is a current third-party estimate of approximately 1.9 million copies sold in its first three days, but Sony has not officially announced that figure, so we won't present it as an established sales number.Then we're heading to Xbox at Tokyo Game Show 2026, including some major announcements:PHYSINT comes to Xbox — Kojima's PHYSINT has shifted from PlayStation to Xbox publishing, with Bill Skarsgård announced as the game's lead.Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 — Xbox showed off a new campaign trailer, with the game scheduled to release October 23, 2026. The game was also playable on the Tokyo Game Show floor.GTA VI ramp-up begins — Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick discussed the need to keep aggressively marketing GTA VI despite the game being one of the most anticipated releases in the world. Rockstar also announced Grand Theft Auto VI: The Album, featuring 34 original tracks, with six singles released immediately and the full album arriving alongside the game on November 19.Resident Evil is having a HUGE opening — Zach Cregger's new Resident Evil reboot is tracking toward a roughly $53 million+ domestic opening, with a reported $26.3 million opening day, making it one of the biggest openings in the franchise.The Helldivers movie gets a new lead — Alan Ritchson is reportedly in talks to replace Jason Momoa in Sony's Helldivers movie, with Justin Lin directing.Crazy Taxi is becoming a live-action movie — Netflix and SEGA are bringing the classic arcade franchise to live action.And of course, we have plenty to discuss about what all of this means for the gaming industry, the future of major franchises, and what we're actually excited about.What do you think?• Is Marvel's Wolverine getting a fair shake?• What did you think of Xbox's Tokyo Game Show announcements?• Are you excited for GTA VI?• And seriously... why the hell is Crazy Taxi getting a movie?If you enjoy honest gaming discussions, breaking gaming news, reviews, and industry debates, be sure to LIKE this video, SUBSCRIBE to The Level Down Podcast, and turn on notifications so you never miss a new episode.🎧 Available on all major podcast platforms.Follow us on Social Media: Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/d3vind4vis/https://www.instagram.com/deltastic.one/TikTok:https://www.tiktok.com/@d3vind4vishttps://www.tiktok.com/@deltasticoneTwitter: https://twitter.com/DELtasticONELinktree: https://linktr.ee/leveldownpodcastBury The Booking Podcasthttps://www.youtube.com/@BuryTheBooking
