GameHounds 805: The Final Death of GameStop?

About this episode

The episode discusses the potential demise of GameStop and the upcoming XBox Developers Direct.

This could finally be it. This death rivals some of the most overplayed, overly dramatic, drawn out deaths in cinema. Finally, it seems, GameStop won't be pulled back from the brink by Reddit stock-shorting groups; it may have finally drawn its last breath and gone to sing with the choir invisible. Oh... but don't worry. The Crypto Bro who took over as CEO is getting $35 million as an exit bonus. Also, XBox Developers Direct is coming next week.
