Defining Duke Ultimate, Episode 54: Looking Back at the Xbox One - Postmortem
The Xbox One generation was an absolutely polarizing place in Xbox console history. From its promising start coming off a successful Xbox 360 era, to the cataclysmic debacle of digital messaging and TV saturation. The Dukes bring in Lord King David of the Iron Lords Podcast to discuss the highs, the many lows, and the hope fo...

The culmination of Sci-Fi's reimagined Battlestar Galactica series is exceptional.

When it comes to mergers and acquisitions, it appears Sony is willing to play along: It's $3.6 billion acquisition of Bungie is proof. Thing is, this marriage is a bit different for the brand. Bungie will remain outside of PlayStation Studios' publishing hierarchy and remain both independent and multiplatform. However, Sony i...

Goodbye, old friend. Bungie, who is directly responsible for putting Xbox on the map in 2001, has gone around quite a bit. From exiting their relationship with Microsoft, to entering a 10 year deal with Activision involving Destiny, breaking off of said deal, receiving an investment from NetEase, and thanks to PlayStation the...

In buying Bungie for $3.6 billion, PlayStation's appetite for acquisitions has now entered Big Boy Territory. But this isn't necessarily a good thing. Indeed, from our perspective, this is a money-move, not a cultural one. Sony has slowly and steadily built its studio family up for years with sensical and organic acquisi...

Wes Anderson's filmography is pocked with remarkable films, and 1998's Rushmore is undoubtedly one of them. Starring Jason Schwartzman and Bill Murray, Rushmore is -- in our estimation -- a movie all about dealing with pain: The pain of growing up, the pain of loss, the pain of emptiness. But, in traditional Anderson form, Ru...
