The Chris Collins Show welcomes our newest CCS Contributor HenriK The WrecK. Henrik will be dropping the latest Video Game related news, reviews and boos! This week we’re talking about video game TV and film adaptations. In 2022 alone there are about 40 shows hitting streaming services and theaters between Netflix, Paramount +, Amazon, Sony and HBO Max. Critics and fans should be dripping in nerd drool—BUT with so many releases suffering from bad casting, bad writing, and poor visuals — are they worth watching? You know what the millennials say. YOU go WOKE you go BROKE? Horror and campy action is a marriage made in heaven when you’re playing a video game—BUT even Sony’s Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City (2021) live action movie made flesh eating zombies go vegan??? Playing video games is a lot like smoking the devil’s lettuce—it’s an escape from reality — like weed! There’s an estimated 3.2 billion Gamers across the globe. What about the next generation consoles and PC’s to meet the demand? It used to be, insert the cartridge or cd, wait for the loading screen and press A on your controller. The economics of gaming is more complicated. There’s MTX (microtransactions), game subscriptions, game passes, seasonal passes and now game NFT’s (Non-Fungible Token). Game companies love it and Gamers hate it — is this just another cash grab? With a global chip shortage and not enough next generation PS5’s and Xbox’s to go around, is this the end of the console wars — do the PC’s win?
