Capcom is doing really well, and also dominating the digital and PC space for a company like that. Maybe FF7 rebirth is for the olds? Zelda movie has a NEW date.

    Let's get into another CORE episode today! Some quick Nerdtacular talk, and then straight into Star Fox getting a a new game, this time a remake of the N64 game! Looks neat and the price sounds like it might be right. Also, big talk about how hard it was to get a Steam Controller on launch day. Tips on avoiding family trips. Are steam machines incoming too? MK II the movie seems like it might be better than ok! We all played a lot of Diablo IV. Fans think Scott looks like Lorath. Dunno about that. Scott also played Mining Merchant, and a few other odds and ends. Beau played Witcher III, and threw people around with a giant hand in Masters of Albion! And lots more!

    CORE 520: A Salty Remake
    May 1 2026

    This week on CORE, the hosts are feeling the heat with only 42 days left until Nerdtacular 2026! Scott, Beau, and Jon dive deep into a massive week of gaming news, starting with the official launch of the Diablo IV: Lord of Hatred expansion. We break down the new classes and whether the Horadric Cube lives up to the name. How stoked are we for the Black Flag remake? Very. We also look ahead at a packed May release schedule, featuring heavy hitters like 007 First Light, Forza Horizon 6, and the Switch 2's Yoshi and the Mysterious Book. Plus, we discuss the technical wizardry of Vampire Crawlers, the mysterious ""30-day check-in"" from Sony, and the strange allure of Shapez 2’s new Manufacture Mode. From Resident Evil movie teasers to the ergonomics of the new Steam Controller, it’s a full show.
