The Big Topic:  Persona 5's long development yielded proper results. 

Further discussion:  Living through your Switch bricking and other dead console experiences.

Persona 5. It is here. A full four years after its original proposed release date, two months after the GamesRadar crew finally started playing it, and just in time for the game's release comes a podcast where we talk about the brilliant Atlus RPG's story, style, and perfectly executed battle system. Fear not: WE ARE SPOILER FREE!
