RE6 was the game the internet loved to hate — but years later, it's earned a second look. In this episode, we make the case for why Resident Evil 6 is a legitimate cult classic: the over-the-top action, the chaotic co-op, and how Capcom swung so hard in one direction…

My second most-played game ever — and Bungie locked it behind a vault. The Destiny 2 content vault didn't just remove missions. It took exotics, progression, and years of time investment to make them inaccessible overnight. That's when I walked away. If you've sunk hundreds of hours into D2, this…
