Gears E-Day Has To Ship Campaign AND Multiplayer.

This week on The Gaming Duo, we ask if Gears of War E-Day will actually launch with both a full single player campaign AND a full multiplayer suite day one, or if even Gears is about to give up on the complete AAA package. With the E-Day Direct just two weeks away, can The Coalition pull off what the rest of the industry has basically stopped trying to do?

Plus, Bungie is reportedly planning another round of layoffs, ending Destiny 2 updates, and going all in on Marathon with no Destiny 3 greenlit. Epic announces Unreal Engine 6 with a Rocket League trailer, and we get into what all of this says about where AAA is heading.

All that and more, where friendships are built through gaming.

This week on The Gaming Duo, we ask why Xbox still can’t win Game of the Year — even with Forza Horizon 6 landing a 92 on Metacritic. Is the industry biased against Xbox, or do racing games simply never get the same respect as cinematic AAA titles?

Plus, Xbox officially becomes “XBOX,” two new controllers leak, and we discuss what all of this means for the future of the brand.
