<p>Unless you've been living under a rock, you've probably already heard a thing or two about our biggest story this week regarding Gamestop. But this story is different from the times we've covered the failing retailer, instead we have a story of Reddit, memes and of course, STONKS. Also this week, Blizzard absorbs the studio behind the recent Tony Hawk's Pro Skater remake and puts them on a Diablo II remake, the EU is coming after Nintendo over Joy-con drift, AMD says PS5 and Xbox Series S/X are going to be hard to find until the second half of the year, and IO Interactive is doubling their staff size to work on their James Bond game.</p>

<p>The World of Assassination trilogy draws to a close with the release of Hitman III from IO Interactive, but it goes out with a bang, bringing the entire trilogy under one roof and raising the bar of quality for cross-gen releases with its stellar PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series S|X support. We've got a review roundup for the game but first, Ethan lays out his impressions of the newly released Resident Evil Village: Maiden demo and Travis gushes over his time with Coffee Talk and derides his time with Maneater. And as is tradition, the gang talks all about the NPD numbers for December 2020 and Switch's continued massive success, more bullshit coming out of CD Projekt Red, and what Sony's mysterious new San Diego studio might be up to.</p>

<p>EA's dark reign over the Star Wars franchise is finally coming to a close, restoring freedom to the stories told in a galaxy far, far away. This week, Lucasfilm Games announced itself as the new publishing brand overseeing Lucasfilm properties and that a new open-world Star Wars game was coming from Massive Entertainment and an Indiana Jones project is in the works at Machine Games. Chris Lingenfelter (@christof_lingen) guest hosts this week for the first time and adds a little flavor to our standard proceedings and things get a little spicy as we continue to cover CD Projekt Red's Cyberpunk 2077 apology tour, the Trump administrations China import tariffs from 2018 finally catching up to the PC component market, and some speculation on what some new trademarks from Square-Enix might mean for Final Fantasy VII Remake's sequel.</p>
