Call of Duty AI Controversy, SDCC Highlights, & Mortal Kombat Animalities Return

This Week: We're diving into the backlash facing Apex Legends, the return of Mortal Kombat’s Animalities, and the latest developments in AI in the gaming industry. We'll also discuss the controversial AI-generated cosmetic allegedly found in Call of Duty, video game voice actors officially going on strike, and bidding farewell to the Xbox 360 Marketplace. Plus, the one and only Maude Garrett returns to share her San Diego Comic-Con adventures and the biggest announcements from the show!

The question isn't why the gaming presence has decreased at SDCC, but why the gaming industry is decreasing their presence at the event.
Last I checked, the only ones that SDCC makes an effort to ask to show up at the con are the ones listed on their special guests list. Everybody else; including movie TV studios, show up because they want to and not because they were asked to.

Good day !!!!!! Naomi . . .

AI-generated skins have got to be a new low for the industry. I don't take issue with players deciding whether they want to spend real money for cosmetics, but it's a totally different story when human artists are gone by the wayside...
