Episode 505: Is XBox Hardware Dead? AI In Games, Death Stranding 2 & Mario Kart World Further Thoughts

Meanwhile, we're still sinking tonnes of hours into Death Stranding 2: On The Beach and Mario Kart World and we've got further thoughts on both of those games after our initial day one impressions over the last couple of weeks!
