The Game Deflators E337 | PlayStation Price Hikes and Microtransaction Mayhem + Battletoads NES Review

In this week's episode of The Game Deflators Podcast, John and Ryan dive into some of the hottest gaming news and controversies. First, they break down the latest PlayStation Plus price hikes affecting over 20 different countries, discussing what this means for gamers. Is the subscription service still worth the cost? Next, they examine a recent study by Newzoo on video game microtransactions, exploring how in-game purchases shape player behavior and the gaming industry as a whole. Are microtransactions a necessary evil, or are they pushing the limits of what players are willing to spend? Finally, the duo takes a nostalgic trip back to the NES era with a review of Battletoads—a game notorious for its punishing difficulty. Does the cult classic still hold up, or is it best left in the past?   Articles covered: https://kotaku.com/pc-gaming-microtransactions-elden-ring-borderlands-4-1851775837     https://www.thegamer.com/playstation-plus-ps-plus-price-hikes/      Want more Game Deflators content?
