BioWare Shuts Down, Half-Life 3 Hope & Steam on PS5

Gray, Trev and Hans reflect on BioWare’s legacy following news of its closure, revisiting classics including Baldur’s Gate, Knights of the Old Republic, Dragon Age and Mass Effect. The leaked Mass Effect Universe trailer adds another question: could someone rescue the franchise?

Cyberpunk 2077’s latest update gives the crew reasons to revisit Night City, while AI in game development sparks a debate about transparency, Steam and Epic. Next-generation console pricing rumors raise eyebrows, and Black Flag Resynced’s New Game Plus announcement leads to some hard-earned advice about protecting your saves.

Could Trev sell his RTX 5090 and replace his desktop with a gaming laptop? Hans shares his experience as they weigh performance, portability, cooling and ultrawide monitors.

Elsewhere, the crew discusses Blu-ray’s future, AI film restoration, Switch 2 jailbreak reports, fresh Half-Life speculation and experimental Steam gaming on PS5. RTX Remix, Golden Joystick nominees and EGP Hot Shots round out the news before three BioWare trivia questions—with the usual tangents along the way.
