So, when is enough enough?

It's Pokemon Day, and as much as Wayne loves Pokemon, there's an argument that what was originally 151 Pokemon is now well over 1,200....and Steven is playing the new Resident Evil and wondering whether it's a similar nostalgia exercise.

What do fans actually want? What makes people happy? When should a franchise call it a day? Is Assassins Creed 3 better than 2? Did Arkham Asylum get it right first time out?

For all these questions and more, listen to the latest episode of Plug In And Play

Plug in and Play kicks off 2026 with an episode that lets the robots take the wheel, as we dive into how AI is reshaping everything from creativity to everyday gaming.

Along the way we somehow end up in Gotham, debating what Batman can teach us about technology, ethics, and very questionable nightlife choices.

And yes, in true “future is now” fashion, even this episode description may or may not have been written by AI… but if it gets a laugh, we’re taking the credit anyway.

Steven and Wayne talk advertising; specifically PlayStation Advertising, with the arrival of the new 'It Happens on PS5' adverts currently hitting screens across the globe.

How much influence does advertising/marketing have on your abilities and decisions to purchase a product? Can you be nostalgic for a PlayStation advert? Well, apparently, you can - or at least Wayne is! We invite you to listen, comment, critique and let us know what YOUR most memorable adverts are!

Also, if you're thinking about sponsoring us, always welcome to get in touch! And yes, Wayne listened back to himself talking about listening to himself. And now he's reading this description in which he's realising he's writing about himself, in the third party, talking about listening to his own voice from the past. It's enough to make my head hurt. Need a lie down after all that.
