Welcome back to Next-Gen Console Watch. This week Daemon is joined by Ryan McCaffrey of the Unlocked podcast, and Max Scoville from Beyond. The topic: are video game publishers better off making adaptations of their games, rather than making new games? Fallout and The Last of Us are two examples of a TV adaptation of a video game done right, and Sony is leaning hard into their IP for more TV series. Is it more financially viable for an IP holder to license their properties for a prestige TV show, over making a new entry in the video game franchise? And would fans prefer that, as long as the shows are good?
