Segment 2: Boss Fight - Contentious topics in the gaming community
Topic - From Project Amethyst to the Future of Play: AMD and Sony Interactive Entertainment’s Shared Vision - https://youtu.be/1LCMzw-_dMw
Is PlayStation just following other industry leaders, such as Nintendo, by glazing with a bunch of technobabble marketed as excitement and hype? Is this just a glass blowfish?
Doesn’t the Nintendo Switch 2 have the exact same script of capabilities, with PlayStation just relabelling them and scaling to greater power based on a larger chassis and form-factor?
Is PlayStation scared of the impending XBox console-PC hybrid? When will this thing be out?

Segment 3: The Business Side - a discussion of industry moves & strategies
Topic - Does Game Pass make sense and has it failed?  - https://x.com/GameLogIQ/status/1976639647489946054
Gamepass Price Hike WTF?  Is gaming getting too expensive?  Console price increases (all around),
Games themselves moving to 70… some 80 (even if few), Accessory prices going up

The E2KG Network is a collection of gamers, streamers, and podcasters, who have banded together in the hopes that we are stronger together. The network is starting off with three shows: Enough 2 Keep Going, our long-format weekly podcast that features a deep discussion on various topics in gaming, as well as our past week's gaming playlist. Then there's E2KGn30, where we run down the week's biggest (or at least the most personally interesting to us) stories in gaming news, the industry, and the biz, and try to get you in and out in 30 minutes (+ / - ten minutes). Finally there is the Dark Hypotheses, our weekly show discussing the SciFi Network show, Dark Matter. We hope to have more shows soon. So if you stream or post captures of your gameplay, if you want to talk games and get in on either the long show or the news show, or if you're interested in tech or TV/Movies, hit me up on Twitter, because we would love to have you. See how to apply here: http://bit.ly/2r5OiKk
