In Episode 35, Solo & Lilo take a look at the week's top gaming stories. For May 9, we discuss the Fortnite x Thanos event, Google launching a social media platform for mobile gaming called "Arcade" & their recent Chrome update which broke some HTML5 game, Nintendo Switch Online releases details as well as the company's shift to a subscription model. We also cover PS backwards compatability expansion, Overwatch League's dipping viewership numbers, & Square Enix E3 Showcase. For the Game Spotlight, Lilo takes a look at Pillars of Eternity 2 and Solo debuts a new segment, "Who's Mans is This" to rip EA's CEO Andrew Wilson's comments on loot boxes. And to wrap it all up, in The Final Lap, we discuss whether Marvel should enter the gaming industry the same way it has the film industry.
