For 11 years, college football fans have been without a video game to call their own, and a court case effectively made it impossible to create a licensed CFB game. However, after three years of development, last week, EA College Football 25 became a reality, and with its release an outpour of hype and emotions swept over the nation as gamers and CFB fans could now go play as their favorite squads or alma maters yet again. Was the long wait worth it? Should you go out and buy it now? Or stick with what Madden's been offering over the years? Sean has his thoughts after spending almost a week now with the game.

In more gaming-focused news, Microsoft and the FTC are perhaps in a battle again over the new edition to Xbox Game Pass and whether or not it degrades the service. Microsoft has responded to the FTC's claim. Who's right? Does the qualm really have any weight to it? And could the FTC actually win?

Also, Bethesda Game Studios unionized, the Halo TV show is canceled, are big publishers not giving live service games a big enough window to succeed? Fallout TV Show gets a lot of Emmy Nominations and more!

Each week on Video Games 2 the MAX, Sean Garmer brings his perspective as a longtime veteran of games journalism to the table. He’s often joined by semi-regular co-host and seasoned reviewer Marc Morrison, or sometimes a guest, for conversations that dig into the entire world of interactive entertainment. The discussion naturally flows from the games they’re currently playing and reviewing into the biggest news stories shaping the industry. Every episode also carves out space for a deeper dive on a special topic, giving the analysis room to breathe beyond just the headlines. Given that games don't exist in a vacuum, the dialogue occasionally branches into related films and television shows, all filtered through a gamer's lens. This isn't a rushed recap; it's a considered chat between knowledgeable voices who have been around the block. The result is a podcast that feels like sitting in on a conversation between friends who just happen to have a wealth of experience. You’ll hear genuine opinions, informed debates, and the kind of context that only comes from years of paying close attention. Whether it's a blockbuster release or a niche indie title, the focus remains on thoughtful commentary over simple hype. Tune in for a comprehensive, yet personal, take on everything happening in gaming and the pop culture that intersects with it.
