Lewis, Neil and that bloke who doesn’t check his facts discuss the latest gaming headlines and announcements, including:

More bad news for Capcom’s boy in blue as his latest adventure gets cancelled. Given the pain and misery he’s put Lewis and Neil through, the pair seem surprisingly sympathetic.
