Failure of Leadership (Bungie Layoffs, AI is BS, Game Informer)

This week, we recap the tumultuous events at Bungie. The company laid off over 200 employees, a move that has sparked discussions about their possible misleading of Sony before the acquisition. We explore why Pete Parsons, Bungie's CEO, deserves a significant portion of the blame and argue that leadership should bear greater responsibility in such crises. We also speculate on the future of Bungie's properties currently in development.

Meanwhile, EA Sports reveals their "integration" of AI and machine learning into the upcoming College Football 25 game. Intel announces a significant layoff of 15,000 jobs, marking it as one of the most consequential changes in its history. Additionally, Game Informer magazine is closing its doors after 33 years, marking the end of an era in gaming journalism.
