Remap Radio 150 — Grand Theft Podcast

So far as we know, nobody is leaking clips from this podcast, but the same can’t be said for Grand Theft Auto VI. Join Patrick, Chia, and Janet as they reminisce about how their parents treated GTA growing up, Netflix’s latest signal they don’t know what to do with video games, and plenty of games talk, including impressions of Netflix’s (impressive!) Unhinged experiment, MiO: Memories in Orbit, Rogue Voltage, Mortal Shell II, and more. Plus, in The Question Bucket, we ponder why developers disable achievements when using options to tweak a game’s difficulty.
