Yes, you read that correctly, Jocelyn watched Sonic 2 because of your awesome Extra Life donations in 2022. However, we didn't record an audio commentary, as we figured a podcast discussion would be the most accessible way to hear Jocelyn's journey through this SEGA epic. While we didn't think we could talk about Sonic 2 for an hour, we sort of did... But fear not! We have a few video game news stories as well with the increase in price for PlayStation Plus tiers and the confirmation that Elder Scrolls 6 has entered early development.

Jocelyn on the other hand checked in on the Texas Chain Saw Massacre game, which shouldn't surprise anyone given her love of Dead by Daylight. Finally, Ryan took a break from clicking through a giant RPG with the latest swashbuckling adventure, En Garde! Moving into the news, Charles Martinet is stepping back as the voice of Mario, Xbox has some new wraps for the Series X, PlayStation Portal is the new Remote Play device from Sony, and our highlights from Gamescom 2023.
