This week on The Finger Guns Podcast, Rossko, Miles, Kat and the returning Josh talk everything that happened this week including frickin' Halo coming to PlayStation in 2026, Microsoft begging Phil Spencer to create 30% 'accountability margins' in order for them to be successful. Oh, and Fallout 4 is coming back! Yay....?In Game of the Week Josh talks about his time with BallxPit along with checking out side-scrolling roguelike Absolum. Kat has been rather busy this week but did find time to play Plants v Zombies Replanted on PS5, Miles has unfortunately had a sad time with Jurassic World Evolution 3 and so in his misery bought Ninja Gaiden 4 to cheer him up and it certainly did the trick. Rossko rounds things up talking about PowerWash Simulator 2 and of course, Fortnite.
