Episode 147 of The Gaming Outsider is now available on iTunes, Stitcher, Google Play Music, iHeartRadio or directly on this website for your listening pleasure. We have a jam packed episode this week where we welcome back Shawn Iams Fuller from the Horribly Awkward podcast to discuss a lot of gaming news including the announcement of Far Cry 5, IO Interactive leaving the Hitman franchise, and the Final Fantasy VII Remake troubles. Games we discuss this week are Rime, Arms: Global Test Punch, the PC port of Vanquish, Nier: Automata, Lawbreakers and more. There’s even some awkward Witcher 3 unicorn discussions going on. Our community topic focuses on the issues of E3 announcements. Are early leaks a problem? Can announcing a title way too early be harmful to the industry?
