236: Random Access Mockery

It's another show bursting at the seams this week, touching on Romeo Is a Dead Man, The Run, and Species: Unknown, with further thoughts on Dragon Quest VII, Cairn, and some Silent Hill f endingsmaxxing. And in the news, the rubber is meeting the road on the RAM crisis for Valve, Sony, and Nintendo, there's a new live-service Horizon game coming, Ryu Ga Gotoku's response to sexual assault allegations on the cast of the new Yakuza is... questionable, and more.
