| 5/28/26 |  The PC Hardware Slump Is Real… and Gamers Are Paying for It | EGP 333 brings Hans back into the chaos, which means the tangents arrive fully armed. The crew kicks off with Sony’s reported pullback from putting single-player PlayStation games on PC, leading to a lively debate about exclusives, “movie games,” God of War, The Last of Us, Days Gone, emulation, and whether PC players are really going to buy a PS5 just because Sony says so.The show also digs into Bungie’s rough Destiny 2 situation, Marathon, layoffs, Call of Duty rumors, Sega reviving Crazy Taxi, AMD Zen 6 and Zen 7 “Grimlock” leaks, AM5 headaches, gaming laptops, eGPUs, PC hardware sales slumping, RAM prices going crazy, PlayStation Plus price hikes, LG’s ridiculous 1,000 Hz monitor, Unreal Engine 6, PS3 emulation, The Witcher remake problems, Expanse: Osiris Reborn voice changes, and GPU triviaJoin our discord! discord.gg/extremegamingpodcast | 1h 46m 40s | ||||||
| 5/21/26 |  The New Steam Controller Literally Screams for Help | EGP 332 brings Trev and Gray back for another round of gaming news, hardware talk, and just enough waffle to be legally considered breakfast. The crew digs into TSMC pushing toward smaller chip nodes, quantum computing, AI data centers, and the slightly terrifying idea that tech companies now need their own power plants.On the gaming side, they cover rumored Xbox controllers, including a cloud-focused pad and Elite Series 3, plus Valve’s new Steam Controller apparently screaming when dropped — because of course it does. There’s also talk of extreme CPU overclocking, Steam Machine storage options, Xbox dropping multiplayer paywalls, Game Pass changes, Subnautica 2’s huge launch, Amazon canceling its Lord of the Rings MMO, GTA 6 delays and pricing worries, PlayStation Plus additions, Forza Horizon in Japan, and one truly Frankenstein RTX 3070 VRAM mod.Join our Discord: discord.gg/extremegamingpodcast#podcast #gaming #gamingpodcast #pcgaming #podcasts | 1h 33m 30s | ||||||
| 5/13/26 |  Sega’s $882 Million “Super Game” Just Got Canceled?! | EGP 331 kicks off with Artemis II moon shots, Discord Nitro finally becoming slightly less useless thanks to Xbox Game Pass perks, and the eternal mystery of what Discord Orbs are actually good for. Trev and Gray also dig into Sega canceling its long-rumored “Super Game,” Nintendo sending Cody Rhodes a polite Zelda Triforce warning, and the Switch 2 price increase that gives everyone one more reason to mutter about tariffs, RAM costs, and corporate math.The crew also covers Twitch cracking down on view-botting, Atari grabbing the rights to the classic Wizardry RPGs, Sony’s cautious-but-obvious move toward AI tools in game development, PS6 RAM rumors, Resident Evil Requiem mods, MindsEye layoffs, Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 perfume — yes, really — Subnautica 2 wishlists, and a little retro Star Fox talk. Gaming news, tech nonsense, and questionable fragrance choices included.discord.gg/extremegamingpodcast | 1h 26m 08s | ||||||

| 2/5/26 |  Forget the GPU, Sell the Box! | This episode the crew debates rumors around GTA 6, including delayed physical editions, staggered PC releases, and whether Rockstar is once again triple-dipping its way to the moon. Things take a nostalgic turn with a fan-made Banjo-Kazooie PC port running at 4K, 120 FPS, and ultrawide, proving modders are still doing the work publishers won’t. Hardware talk with Micro Center’s shockingly good Ryzen X3D bundle deals, rampant DDR5 RAM shortages, and reports of RAM being stolen straight out of Costco display PCs. We dive into fake RTX 5090 listings, absurd resale prices, Rainbow 6 Siege, new Alienware, DDR4 prices rising faster than DDR5, and much more. | 1h 26m 53s | ||||||
| 1/29/26 |  Xbox Dev Direct: Fable, Fast Cars, and Big Expectations | This episode is packed February preview mixed with classic EGP banter and a side of hardware soul-searching. The crew runs through upcoming releases like Resident Evil Requiem, Nioh 3, Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties, High On Life 2, and Dragon Quest VII Reimagined, debating prices, difficulty, and whether fun should ever require suffering. Xbox’s Dev Direct also gets attention, with strong impressions of Fable, curiosity around Beast of Reincarnation, and cautious optimism for Forza Horizon 6, because apparently ray-tracing Tokyo needs its own power plant. On the hardware side, discussions drift into frame rates, 60 FPS acceptance, AMD X3D CPUs, and Trev officially ditching his PS5 Pro to fund a PC upgrade. The episode wraps with sobering talk on Ubisoft layoffs, industry churn, and why smaller studios may end up saving gaming after all.discord.gg/extremegamingpodcast | 1h 33m 29s | ||||||
| 1/23/26 |  Consumer VR: Are We There Yet… or Is It Over? | This week blends hardware frustration with uncomfortable industry realities. Alongside heated debates over AMD’s X3D woes, GPU pricing chaos, and DLSS 4.5 coping strategies, the crew dives into a wave of gaming news that feels anything but upbeat. Ubisoft layoffs spark concerns about studio stability, while sacked Rockstar developers reportedly walking away unpaid, raises eyebrows about how disposable talent has become. Intel’s upcoming Panther Lake CPUs get a cautious look, Sonic celebrates an improbable 35 years, and rumors swirl around a potential release window for Forza Horizon 6. There’s also optimism, with Enshrouded officially locking in a 1.0 launch this autumn, contrasted sharply by existential dread around VR as Meta shutters three VR studios—prompting the uncomfortable question: is this the beginning of the end for consumer VR? Equal parts news roundup, humor, venting, and reality checks. discord.gg/extremegamingpodcast | 1h 56m 16s | ||||||
| 1/15/26 |  CES Fallout: AI Hype, Empty Promises, and Gamer Frustration | EGP 315 turns into a CES therapy session as Gray, Trev, and Hans unpack why the Consumer Electronics Show felt anything but consumer-friendly. Between NVIDIA, AMD, and endless AI buzzwords, CES looked more like a corporate earnings call than a gamer showcase, with Jensen Huang’s shiny jacket getting almost as much attention as GPUs. The crew digs into missing Ryzen reveals, questionable charts, DLSS 4.5, frame generation madness, and why cloud gaming via GeForce Now keeps creeping closer to center stage. Things get delightfully weird with Razer’s Project Ava (aka the holographic waifu assistant nobody asked for but everyone wants), foldable phones, RAM shortages, and fears that PC building is becoming a museum hobby. The episode wraps with Rockstar Games, union disputes, and why the industry feels like it’s changing faster than gamers can keep up. discord.gg/extremegamingpodcast | 1h 47m 56s | ||||||
| 1/8/26 |  Renting GPUs, Watching Ads: Is This Gaming’s Future?` | This Episode kicks off with New Year cheer, and diving headfirst into the looming future of gaming. The crew debates whether PC enthusiasts are becoming an endangered species as Microsoft, NVIDIA, Steam, and Game Pass push gaming toward the cloud. Physical games are fading, hardware prices are exploding (hello RTX 5090), and subscriptions, ads, and tiered performance plans threaten ownership as we know it. From GeForce Now hour caps to fears of “watch ads to play,” the panel wonders if we’re heading for a future of rented GPUs, retro backlogs, and Chromebooks pretending to be gaming rigs. Optimism is… cautiously buffering.discord.gg/extremegamingpodcast | 1h 40m 47s | ||||||
| 12/31/25 |  AI in Gaming: The New CGI or Just a Glitch? | In the latest episode of the Extreme Gaming Podcast, the guys dive into a rich discussion on gaming, tech, and customization tools. They explore Taiwan's earthquake resilience and TSMC's operational stability, emphasizing the tech industry's preparedness. The conversation shifts to innovative gaming mods, including a Chinese modder's upgrade of the RTX 5080 for AI workstations. The hosts discuss the potential of AI in gaming, comparing it to CGI's evolution in movies, and debate the indie game awards' stance on AI usage. They also highlight powerful Windows customization tools like Directory Opus and Groupy, which enhance user experience by offering deep customization and efficient file management. The episode wraps up with a preview of their upcoming special on the future of PC gaming, promising insights into industry trends and changes.discord.gg/extremegamingpodcast | 1h 43m 58s | ||||||

The episode wraps up with a look at the challenges of keeping up with evolving gaming hardware.discord.gg/extremegamingpodcast | 1h 58m 43s | ||||||
