It's Friday, and that means it's time for another episode of The Best War Games Arcade. Luckily, this week has seen one of the most surprising games of the year release in the form of Guardians of the Galaxy, so there's plenty for Cameron and Anthony to talk about on the newest episode. Plus, there's plenty of news.
First things first, Sony had a State of Play, however, it wasn't what fans were expecting. Running about 20 minutes, it was on the smaller side and didn't contain many major announcements. Of course, that hasn't sat well with fans, causing reactions to flood in on social media.
In brighter news, Halo Infinite's campaign spotlight gave fans a better look at the game's story than has been previously seen. While it hasn't got everyone excited, it's still been given fans a better idea of what to expect when the game launches later this year.
Fans also got two hot new trailers this week. The first was for the Grand Theft Auto Trilogy, showing fans the revamped art style for the games included in the package. Meanwhile, the other was for the Uncharted movie. So far, the Uncharted movie trailer has received a mixed reaction, with the main criticisms coming from fans being about the film's casting choices.
And last but not least, N64 games on Switch have received a mixed reaction due to some issues with the emulation software. The cost increase of the service hasn't helped with the problems, causing even more fans to be upset with the situation at large.'
