The Media Is Claiming Xbox Is Shutting Down Soon...? | Defining Duke, Episode 113

There's much to go over as Xbox fans wait with bated breath for information on Starfield's Developer Direct. With the Activision deal pending, the media is claiming that if it is to fail that Microsoft is ready to shut down Xbox. Just how much validity is there to such a claim? The Duke dig into the facts and find out. We also have updates from Phil Spencer in a new interview on upcoming game announcements, Obsidian clamoring for a New Vegas remaster, Shinji Mikami leavining Tango Gameworks, confusion on the front of Project Dragon, Baldur's Gate 3 controversy, and even Halo/Forza DLC updates to boot. It truly is a jam packed week, so let's go through all of it and have some fun talking about more important things like toilet paper.
