Ep. 011: AAA Leaves the Last Gen Behind (And That's Ok)

This week on the Game Adventure Podcast, we are talking about a massive line in the sand as Call of Duty finally severs ties with the PS4 and Xbox One era. Why is cutting the cord actually a good thing for the future of gaming? Plus, we dive into GameStop's bizarre $56 billion unsolicited bid to buy eBay, Eric Barone's grueling work schedule on The Haunted Chocolatier, and a trip down memory lane with some incredible new retro demakes and PC mods.
