What Did I Miss? (October 2026)

It's time for another edition of What Did I Miss?, where we catch up on some of the biggest pop culture stories from the past few weeks! This month, we are joined by Dylan from the former Friendly Neighborhood Gamers podcast and returning guest, voice actor Donald Guzzi, as everyone brings a story to the table and gets the group talking. What we discussed: The end of BioWare: After more than 30 years, BioWare is closing its doors, bringing an end to one of gaming's most influential RPG studios. The news also means the cancellation of the next Mass Effect game, leaving fans to reflect on the studio's legacy and what this means for the future of the franchise. AI takes over Steam Next Fest: This year's Steam Next Fest sparked plenty of frustration as players encountered an overwhelming number of games featuring AI generated content. With more than a third of participating games disclosing generative AI use, we discuss what this means for game discovery, independent developers, and the future of Steam as a platform. The PS5 jailbreak gets a major upgrade: A new wave of homebrew development has opened the door to an impressive collection of emulators on jailbroken PS5 consoles. From classic PlayStation games to systems from Nintendo and Xbox, we discuss what this means for game preservation and the possibilities of the console outside of its intended use. Crazy Rich Asians is making a comeback: After years of fans hoping for a follow up to the 2018 film, HBO has officially ordered a new Crazy Rich Asians series. Several familiar faces, including Constance Wu, Henry Golding, Michelle Yeoh, and Ronny Chieng, are set to return. We talk about the long road to getting this franchise back on screen and whether a series is the right way to continue the story. As always, we'll wrap things up with a look at some of the other stories making the rounds in our Discord community before putting our pop culture knowledge to the test with another round of Kahoot.
