It is now November! Crazy how fast the year goes, but don’t worry Sean and Marc are here with another Video Games 2 the MAX.

Sean’s been playing a slew of indie titles that have hit Xbox Game Pass in Thirsty Suitors, Headbangers: Rhythm Royale, and the climbing game, Jusant as well. Not to mention, he’s now reached the Alan Wake portion of Alan Wake 2. Marc's been playing a bunch of Remnant 2 and also finished Marvel's Spider-Man 2 and played Final Fantasy XVI as well. So there are plenty of thoughts on games this week for sure.

Speaking of, Alan Wake 2 developer, Remedy Games, has updates on five games they have in development. Three of which are the Max Payne 1 & 2 remasters and Control 2.

Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name was apparently at one point going to be DLC for Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth, while Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 was going to be DLC for MW2 last year. When is it good to just leave a game as the intended DLC and when is it a better idea to make it a full game?

Sadly, more layoffs have hit the game industry as Bungie let go of eight percent of its staff (roughly 100 people) and had to delay their latest expansion, The Final Shape, for Destiny 2 as well. Could this be another cog in why Sony is reconsidering the Games as a Service direction for PlayStation?

Plus, thoughts on the success of the Five Nights at Freddy’s movie, what is going on at Marvel and the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and more!
