🎮 Xbox in Crisis:
Grant Roland and Ed Phillips kick off Episode 113 of the DMG Gaming Podcast with a fiery discussion about the decline of Xbox in 2025. Between layoffs, canceled games, and Game Pass fatigue, Microsoft is under fire — and the hosts don’t hold back.

📰 Gaming News Rundown:
They dissect IGN Japan’s eyebrow-raising 7/10 score for Clair Obscure: Expedition 33 and 6/10 for Death Stranding 2, compared to IGN US’s 9/10 praise for Kojima’s work. Marvel’s “Ironheart” gets labeled its worst project yet, and casting backlash hits the new Harry Potter Snape. Meanwhile, the new Superman film earns a 91% Rotten Tomatoes score.

💢 Rant Segment – The Disgruntled Gamer:
From trolls on X (Twitter) to ridiculous geopolitical memes, Grant rants about being blocked by Mercedes-Benz and fake info spreading like wildfire. The IGN/GameSpot bias also gets a grilling.

🏆 Winner & ❌ Loser of the Day:
Winner: Grant, for surviving another birthday with a chill casino buffet and no existential crisis.
Loser: Xbox — for layoffs, canceled titles, and weak branding. Avowed? More like “Uninterested.”

🔝 Top 6 Worst Consoles Ever:
They count down the absolute worst systems in gaming history:
6️⃣ Atari Jaguar
5️⃣ Nokia N-Gage
4️⃣ Ouya
3️⃣ Virtual Boy
2️⃣ Gizmondo
1️⃣ Philips CD-i – home of those "Zelda" nightmares.

❓ Question Corner:
Why live podcasting is tough, and the weirdest accounts that blocked them.
