Wake up, a hot new Unplugged just dropped! Aaron has STILL not returned from his elephant excursion, so just when he thought he was out, guest host Gary jumps back in the saddle fresh from his Polaris trip to Hamburg to discuss all the latest gaming news and Wired propaganda with the one and only Jake!
With a new mission to 'not swear in order to please the algorithm gods' the dynamic duo dive into a heft Arcade Paradise celebration with the announcement of the Coin-Op Pack #1 which expands Arcade Paradise with three new cabinets AND the release of the deluxe double vinyl, whilst speculating on just WHAT is in the revealed 4-month cabinet roadmap!
Also covered in this week's episode :
- Eating hamburgers in Hamburg
- Microsoft keeping Call of Duty on Sony platforms (as long as there's a PlayStation to ship it to..)
- Modern Warfare 2 Cross-Play being DISABLED for Xbox and PC Users
- IKEA shutting down a solo dev for comparisons to its store (?!) whilst Tarkov escapes scot-free.
- Square Enix's mysterious new game announcement 'Symbiogenesis' which has disappointed pretty much everyone by NOT being a Parasite Eve game (you guessed it, it's NFT-related)

The Pope, NFTS + The Holy Unicorn...
This week on Wired Unplugged, hosts Jake Kulkowski and Aaron Cooper are FINALLY reunited just in time for Aaron to evolve into his final Unicorn form. Joining the gang is art and design extraordinaire and all round holy-guy, PopeArt! We run through his impressive career, explore the creative process and the search for ‘the masterpiece’ – we also talk a little about those pesky NFT things... (yes, we still hate them, but give PopeArt our holy blessings)
But wait, there’s more... Jake and Aaron run through the latest Propaganda, talk all things Arcade Paradise and roll through the theft laden news, which ironically was stolen from the internet – leaks, theft and crime, oh my.

This week on Wired Unplugged, hosts Jake Kulkowski and Aaron Cooper awaken to find themselves in a Dark Room with the sharp-witted legend that is John Robertson, where they light a fire on his comedy career, discuss the success and evolution of The Dark Room, banter about writing books whilst balancing the power of humour for a younger audience and casually discuss cannibalism...
Sandwiched around John, Jake and Aaron mind-bindingly announce an announcement for an announcement, shoot to the moon on next-gen, accidentally squish Lumote and catch up on non-E3 and the latest news and views in the world of videogames!
