This week on SupaPod, we break down the latest industry shake-up as Meta closes multiple studios, including Twisted Pixel, Armature, and Sanzaru — teams behind games like Splosion Man, Comic Jumper, The Gunstringer, ReCore, Resident Evil 4 VR, and more recently Deadpool VR. We also take a trip down memory lane with a flashback of past Game of the Year winners, revisiting titles that took home top honors from award shows and media outlets 10, 20, and 30 years ago. A mix of tough industry news and nostalgic reflection on how far gaming has come.
