On this Thanksgiving episode of Video Games 2 the MAX, Sean Garmer and Marc Morrison discuss quite a few topics, and the games they've been playing heading into the last legs of the year.

They begin by talking game sales for last month as Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 proves triumphant over Red Dead Redemption 2. Then, they switch focus to a much longer conversation about Sony skipping E3 2019. What it means for the company and for the Entertainment Software Association that runs E3. Is the PS5 truly on the horizon, and what games could they have to show even if they did an event. They also get into what Microsoft has planned for Scarlett and a rumored upgraded Nintendo Switch too.

They also discuss Square-Enix's financial troubles and what it meant for Final Fantasy XV, Hajime Tabata, Shadow of the Tomb Raider. There's elaborations on Mortal Kombat 11 and Diablo 4 being in development. THQ Nordic buying more studios and their lack of marketing for Darksiders 3. Microsoft's X018 event, and much more.

Near the end, they go through most of the 2018 Game Awards and give their predictions for who will win at the show.

The guys end with talking about the games they've been playing. Sean gushes over Pokemon: Let's Go Pikachu. While Marc has some less than savory things to say about Red Dead Redemption 2. But both guys agree on how good Tetris Effect is though.
