The Crossplay Cooperative Ep003 - Frontside Disasters

Finally we are united and recording in the same room!

In this episode we talk about Sony's PS5 price increases, Nintendo rumours, more Nvidia AI chat, some awkward Street Fighter 6 storylines, post-game completion depression and a whole lot more! Like a lot, a lot.

We also dive into what we've been playing over the last two weeks, including a look at Slay The Spire II, Len's final thoughts after getting the platinum for Unicorn Overlord and Nate talks about Clair Obscur: Expedition 33! As always, we also have a quick update on our Fantasy Critic standings as bit of a temp check on what's coming out later this year.

Disclaimer: Moderately important stuff - Also it's quite long. Sorry!
