GamesBeat Decides 79: Home of the classy take

It took us until well into spring, but Mike Minotti and Jeffrey Grubb finally did two episodes together back-to-back. On this week’s GamesBeat Decides podcast, your hosts spend a lot of time talking about God of War.

In the second segment, the squad digs into the best reboots of all time. They also try to define a reboot in the age of the “sequel” that resets almost everything. The past week also had major stories like our Battlefield V Battle Royale report and Valve acquiring Firewatch developer Campo Santo that takes up a chunk of the news segment.

Join us for all of that and more, won’t you?

Here’s what we talked about this week:
