Why don’t consoles typically ever release limited edition sku’s early on? I’m getting a PS5 on launch day but I already know some day there’ll be a special one, most likely of a different color, that I wish I had instead of my initial one. For example, I wish the Spider-Man PS4 had come out before I bought my default black one.

What was your favorite concert venue for punk shows or concerts in general? Mine for metal or punk was Maritime hall in sf. So many great memories. Other one was the edge in polo alto. Concerts bay areas no.1 shoreline amphitheater lot of blood, sweat and mosh pits happened there and still do personal favorite event center at san jose state university. Also boss tell us some great stories. When we meet I'll tell you some of mine. Side note a spot every one likes but I feel is over rated the war field in sf. The set up there is weird and the only place to mosh is in the front only.

Hey Shane, things have been crazy recently, and I find myself resorting to gaming and movie/television "comfort food" in order to destress. Two of my favorites are Kid Chameleon for Sega Genesis and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. What game (or movie/show) do you replay (or rewatch) as your "comfort food?"

Hey Shane, I hope all is well with you and your family. Usually, around this time, we would evaluate the first half of the year in gaming. Any games, in particular, stand out as your early contenders for GOTY?

Has your home or SIFTD office been affected by the riots?
